2011 Let's GO!!!

Hey all! I've been away from connecting with you all for about 2 months now, but I'm back for good! I had some quality time on vacation, away from work and the grind. For me, that always brings a renewed vigor for life and a re-aligned focus. In the midst of that time off I sat in on a youth service where the speaker shared on the power that lies in the declaration of God's Word on a regular basis. And so what I'm sharing with you today, is a list of daily declarations I formulated for myself. I personally prefer to do them in the morning, to place my whole day in proper perspective and under the control of God's Word. Each month will have mostly unique declarations, always rooted in God's Word. They are not copyrighted...so please print, and use! Or if you enjoy searching the scriptures like I do, dig out yours and share with us all.

  1. According to your word...
    No wonder those disciples after toiling all night, said to Jesus, "Nevertheless, at thy word..."
    May we live 2011 according to the revelation of His word concerning us in Jesus' name. May we not live outside of His spoken word.
    Thanks for sharing Toyin.
