Declarations For September 2024
This is a month of birthing and breaking free from any and all captivity. A month where the favor of God is poured in every area of our lives. The Spirit of the Lord which dwells inside of you has empowered you to make this bold declaration in Isaiah 61:1-3 NIV;
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,[a]
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
I will be called an oak of righteousness,
a planting of the Lord
for the display of His splendor.
I declare it is so and so it is in Jesus’ name. AMEN!

Do Not Discard Me Lord
Psalm 71:9 is a scripture I pray daily for myself, parents and loved ones especially the elderly people in my life. The Psalmist cried to God that;
"Do not cast me off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength is spent"
God can discard a man. The world itself can discard you when you no longer have the ability or strength to do what you need to do for yourself, your family and humanity. When it looks as if you have nothing else to offer, you can be set aside. So I encourage you to make yourself valuable to your generation. Leave a legacy that will ensure that even in your old age, your generation references you and comes to draw from your wisdom and contribution to humanity.
I pray for you for this week that the good Lord will count it worthy to preserve your life and continue to use you as a vessel for His purposes till the end. I declare it is so and so it is in Jesus’ name. AMEN!
XOXO,
Lady Abena.
A Heartfelt Prayer
I read Apostle Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 3:14-20 and there was something so solemn about it such that it stayed in my spirit. I keep coming back to read it so let me share this heartfelt prayer from Apostle Paul with you this week;
“For this reason I kneel before the Father[c] from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named. I pray that he may grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power in your inner being through his Spirit, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. I pray that you, being rooted and firmly established in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the length and width, height and depth of God’s love, and to know Christ’s love that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us— to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen”
I declare it is so and so it is in Jesus’ name. AMEN!
XOXO,
Lady Abena.
