Declaration Three

The point of the 8 Declarations is that we have to be careful of our words and speak only ones that bring life.

Declaration 3:

I declare that I will have the grace I need for every day of my life.

This is actually one of my favorite declarations. Some days I really feel like I need grace.

According to Webster's dictionary, grace means "a controlled, polite, and pleasant way of behaving." It also means "unmerited divine assistance given humans for their regeneration or sanctification."

Ephesians 2:8-9 - For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--not by works, so that no one can boast.

John 1:16-17 - Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given. For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

Acts 20:32 - Now I commit you to God and to the word of his grace which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

1 Corinthians 15:10 - But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

2 Corinthians 12:9 - But he said to me "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."

God's grace is enough for us to make it through all sorts of trials.

Declare first that you will serve God; follow through on this promise. Then, make the first 3 declarations. Speak these things aloud so that it will travel from your lips to God's ear.
