“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.

Everything else flows out of a heart that is grounded in God and His goodness. Our God is good, ALL the time!
Outside the daily devotions and times spent with God the Father, God the Son, and the Holy Spirit, I always make daily, weekly and monthly affirmations and declarations.
I speak them over myself, my family, my marriage, over relatives, the works of my hands, my community, and more.
You can write affirmations out and post them in noticeable places too.
What Is An Affirmation?
An affirmation means to state or assert positively; to confirm or ratify that all is well.
Affirmations can eradicate negative feelings that can bring positive changes.
“The problem with negative thoughts is that they can become self-fulfilling prophecies. We talk ourselves into believing that we’re not good enough. And, as a result, these thoughts drag down our personal lives, our relationships, and our careers.” – Mindtools
Biblical affirmations are intended to exalt the power and sovereignty of Almighty God that transcends human limitations.
It’s like commanding your month and praying your desires and expectations to Almighty God and having an unwavering faith and unshakable hope that He will grant your requests.
Commit Everything to God in Prayer!
Committing everything to God in prayer is a weapon that offers a victorious expectation.
Prayer is our way of communicating with our heavenly father.
Isn’t it reassuring that we can speak directly to God? With no middleman? No holds. No interference. Zero drop calls. No Wi-Fi needed either.
The best part is that you can call upon Him 24/7 at any time of the day or night, and He won’t get upset.
Prayers are Powerful.
Believers use prayers as spiritual weapons to ignite heaven’s influence and action.
We can talk to God about anything and everything with the assurance that He hears us.
God answers us when we pray in the name of His Son Jesus Christ.
Jesus gave us these commands; “You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it so that the Son can bring glory to the Father.” John 14:13
“In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.” John 16: 23-24.
Even when you don’t know how to pray, Jesus gave us a prayer sample, you can call it a template in the “Lord’s Prayer.”
For believers, praying is not about if but when…. We are to pray always without ceasing.
“Pray without ceasing.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:17.
“And so, I tell you, keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.” -Luke 11:9
Prayer is not just about talking to God, it includes worship and devotion. God loves it when we praise and worship Him.
Prayer is the weapon we have over and against the enemy, who roars like a lion. Did you get that? The devil is not strong like the lion, it roars like one.
When we pray daily and make affirmations, the devil runs away in fear.
Why? Our God is Omnipotent, Omnipresent, and Omniscient – OOO, and can withstand and overpower Satan’s devices.
Worshiping for Believers goes beyond singing. Worship stems from the depths of whom the worshiper is and what God means to them.
When we praise, we recognize and relate to the good acts of God.
This is one of the songs I sing every day and I always feel like God is smiling down on me when I sing it.
It’s from Lamentations 3:22-23:
“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; They are new every morning; New every morning, Great is your faithfulness, Oh Lord Great is thy faithfulness.”
Monthly, Biblical affirmations are positive declarations of God’s truth. The source of God’s truth is the Holy Bible.
The Bible contains trustworthy and infallible information that is wholly true and valuable.
Daily prayers and affirmations help believers live true to their divine potentials.
