Command & Decree Heavenly Authority
There are heavenly decrees and prophetic words that are released over your life.
Are you aware of what God has for you? Do you know the power of your decree? Are you walking in the promises of the Lord for your generation? God has decreed something special for your life. Are your ears tuned to the frequency of Heaven? Are you living out what the King has decreed over you? Over your finances? Over your family? Over your business, ministry, and city? Have you thought about what your words can bring about for your life? Do you know how powerful your words are and the decrees that are established through your mouth?
Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways (Job 22:28 KJV).
Often times we have heard and read this passage of Scripture, but have we really understood the meaning of this context? There is something powerful behind the meaning of the word decree. According to Webster’s New World Dictionary the word decree is defined “an official order or decision.” In other words, a decree is an order made by a decision. God has an order that He has sent from His throne room that you as His children must carry out. You become the fulfillment of the decree that the King releases. God decided by His order for you to walk in His promises daily. Through your obedience to His decrees spoken for your life, you will begin to walk in total blessing and freedom. Decrees should be spoken aloud because it is the power of the spoken word that comes forth through what we speak (decree).
Command Your World
We must know that “by faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible” (Heb. 11:3 NIV). I like how it says that the universe was formed at God’s command. The worlds were created, formed, fashioned, framed, and came into being by what He decreed. When God spoke His decree, the worlds were suddenly established and came into being. God spoke from the invisible and eternal realm, and His decree caused things to manifest in the visible realm.
Things in life just don’t happen to us, but we are called to make things happen in life. God has given His people kingly authority and legislative power through dominion. What you decree out of your mouth will become what you live. In other words, what you decree today you will live in that reality tomorrow. The Bible says that “Death and life are in the power of the tongue” (Prov. 18:21 KJV) and “How forcible are right words” (Job 6:25 KJV). A person’s tongue can snare them or set them back. The prophetic decrees spoken out of our mouth can be forcible, powerful, and set us up for greatness or failure. Our words will either snare us or sail us on the wrong or right path.
God’s Word released through our tongue will cause His power to manifest in our lives. Words are used to convey our thoughts, just as God’s thoughts are conveyed to us through His Word and decrees. It was my responsibility to capture those life-changing words and release them to you. We know that even Jesus taught His disciples that our faith is released through our words (see Mark 11:23). We must understand that our faith-filled words are mountains movers! In **Heaven Declares, you will be godly motivated to do the impossible for your generation. You will be challenged, encouraged, inspired, blessed, and edified to fulfill what you were born to do daily. In spite of life circumstances and unexpected occurrences that one may face, you were created to possess dominion and use it for the glory of God. Knowing God’s thoughts toward you daily will ignite the sleeping giant on the inside of you and take giant leaps of faith.
Power of Your Decrees
Are you ready to change your life by your decrees? Did you know that your tongue holds creative power? Your tongue is a key that can bind and loose things into your life. We have the power to permit or prohibit things from happening in our lives. As we read, one of the definitions of decree is an order of decree by decision. I often say that our destiny is determined by the very decisions that we make. In other words, our decisions will determine our destinies. God gives us our purpose and defines it through us, but our ultimate destination of fulfilling our purpose is determined by our decisions through our decrees. If you often times say that you are sick then most likely you may end up sick eventually. Our words hold power and become the very picture frame that we create.
Our lives become the byproduct of what we decree, speak, or decide. As king-priests in the earth realm, we have to learn to release heavenly decrees and live in the realm of possibility. Only kings have the power and authority to speak a thing and it becomes law. We must understand that only kings have legislative power and what they decree is irrevocable. In other words, it cannot be modified, changed, or altered once it’s released. That is why we are to be careful what we speak.
Life & Death in the Power of the Tongue
Through our words we can birth things and we can bury things. In the Old Testament, when a king decree something it was considered a written document and he would be very specific and clear about that subject matter. It becomes law and must be carried out according to the king’s order and failure to comply would be a punishable act even unto death. The word that was spoken by a decree released from the king was now established and made constitutional.
When a Christian believer decrees blessing, then the blessing is now established in their lives or in others they pray, speak, and decree over. We have to have faith to believe this biblical principle and practice it in our own lives. Heaven is declaring the glory of the Lord over your life to establish you. This shares the heart of the Father and what He wants to establish each day in your life as you read and meditate and decree prophetically over your day. You can establish and set the tone of your day by speaking positively over your day. Counteract negativity with positivity. Heaven wants to invade your earth here and now. You have what it takes to turn things around by the Word of the Lord in your mouth.
I like the definition of the word established, which means “to order, ordain, or enact (a law, etc.) permanently, to set up (nation, business), to cause to be, bring about, to cause to be accepted, to prove, to demonstrate.” Heaven wants to declare over you what God has already ordered, ordained, enacted on your behalf before the foundation of the world. Now, take a look at the definition of the word “declare.” Declare means “to make known or state clearly, especially in explicit or formal terms: to declare one’s position in a controversy, to announce officially; proclaim: to declare a state of emergency; to declare a winner, to state emphatically to show, reveal, or manifest: the heavens declare the glory of God.”
Prophetic Forecast & Holy Spirit Navigation
The Bible says, “The steps of a [good and righteous] man are directed and established by the Lord, and He delights in his way” (Ps. 37:23 AMP). My book** can help navigate your steps through the compass and forecast of the Holy Spirit. God has already ordered, decreed, and ordained your life’s destiny before you ever took your first step and breath as a baby. In your mother’s womb, your destiny had already been predetermined. Like Jeremiah, the Word of the Lord came to Him saying, speaking, and decreeing his prophetic destiny and call. What is heaven saying and declaring about you? Jeremiah the prophet had to become what was spoken of him. Even Jesus Himself was the Word of God manifested in flesh form and dwelling among His people (see John 1:14). Are you becoming what heaven has declared you to become? Are you the fulfillment of your personal prophecy?
