INTRODUCTION
I F there is anything that strikes at the heart of most people, its the wellbeing of their loved ones. With the current condition of our society, many people have become deeply concerned about their familys future and overall wellbeing. But we must remember that God does not want us fearful about our family or our household. God is all about taking care of our families! He is committed to helping your family live a peaceful, abundant, and flourishing life. He is committed to keeping your family intact and causing your home to be a place where He is glorified. God wants your family life and experience to be your greatest joy!
There are many elements that go into making our families and our homelifes strong and successful. It certainly doesnt happen automatically and without dedication. We need to actively invest in our families, and there are many elements involved in that. It requires both spiritual and natural effort; it requires faith and prayer.
Of course, on the natural side, we need to make time for each other, communicate together, and create order and integrity in our homes. Our families should be among our highest priorities. While we know this in principle, it can be difficult because there are many other things in life that demand our time and attention. At the same time, there is also a balance to having a dedicated family investment because it wouldnt be right to spend so much time on family, naturally speaking, that we make little spiritual effort for the Lord or His Kingdom. Its an important balance we must have, and both are needed. Jesus taught the importance of the family investment, but He equally emphasized that His Kingdom must be first, even before family (see Matt. 19:29; Mark 3:33). Why did He emphasize this order? Because without the Lord being first in our focus, all our natural efforts to better our family life become subject to our own imperfections and failures. We must put the spiritual element first in our homes and families so the Lord can intervene in our struggles, help us through tough times, and bring His presence into our homes and families in a tangible way.
One key element people sometimes miss when it comes to putting the spiritual element at the forefront of building strong, stable families is their words and confessions of faith. What we say to and about our loved ones sets the course for the outcome. If we declare Gods Word in faith regarding our family, it brings the Lords power onto the scene. If we speak words of fear and frustration, it will open the door to the enemy. Our words are powerful tools in building up our family, and we need to prioritize speaking faith-filled words over them. James 3:6 reminds us that our words set nature in motion. This most certainly applies to how we speak to and about our family members. It also applies in how we speak about our homes, our future, and our finances.
In a culture that aims to break down the family structure, we need to speak the right things over our lives and families. We need to verbally take authority over the power of the enemy that would attempt to bring any form of attack or destruction on our families and homes. We have the power to decree and put words into the atmosphere that will bring forth the manifestation of Gods supernatural power upon our family life. Our declaration of faith not only sets things in motion both spiritually and naturally, but it also builds our own faith that God is working out His purposes for our loved ones and will not let them fall. Our decree and declaration over our family also serves as a reminder to us that we should not slip into the temptation to speak negatively when it looks in the natural realm like things are turning out opposite of what we desire.
Daily Decrees for Family Blessing and Breakthrough is a tool to help families stand strong in the purposes of God so they can remain unified and experience prosperity and blessing. It will build faith in your spirit that whatever your family faces, God is working a miracle to turn it around for good. Through these declarations, you will also be reminding the enemy that your family, property, and possessions are off-limits and that your family will remain safe and secure! As you decree these words over your loved ones, you are setting nature in motion and establishing a bright future for those you love. Its time to declare blessing and breakthrough over your family!
PEACE IN OUR HOME
DECLARATION
T ODAY we decree that our home is filled with Gods unsurpassable peace. The atmosphere is saturated with tranquility and serenity. We rely on the Lords peace, which provides a sense of assurance in our minds and emotions. We declare that we are relaxed and calm. We break the powers of agitation, mayhem, chaos, and disarray in the Name of Jesus! We cast out any evil spirit that would bring disorder to the atmosphere. We declare that those who dwell in our home contribute to peace and do not give place to anything that would create turmoil. We speak that every person who enters our home is enveloped in heavenly peace. We say our home is a place where guests feel the Lords supernatural rest upon them, and it opens the way for miracles in their lives. We speak great peace upon our home, in the mighty Name of Jesus!
