Success Declaration

I am breathing in new health, gratitude, peace and strength.

I have the tenacity to solve my challenges and achieve my goals.

I declare and decree that I am a conqueror, victorious, wise, successful and blessed.

I am covered by the Lord’s sovereign power, peace and provision to endure any challenges, enjoy life and excel in my purpose.

I feel worthy of receiving respect, peace, love and the abundant life.

I follow through on what I start.

I am worthy, loving and capable of achieving my personal definition of success.

This is a brand new day to live without apology and to live with gratitude, courage, hope, love,self-control and faith.

I am growing each day with inner strength to overcome the challenges of life.

I'm learning everyday to forgive myself and draw emotional boundaries around those who have hurt me as I release my anger and forgive them.

I am taking better care of myself.

When I experience the "joy stealers" of depression, guilt, low self-esteem, clutter, fear, doubt,temptation or procrastination ...

I am willing to recognize and resolve my unhealthy patterns.

I can come out of any cave of dark depression and into the light to enjoy the many blessings and promises of God for me and my family.

I'm learning that all relationships are teachers.

I am developing wise judgment and boundaries to know which people in my life are the lifters and which ones are the leaners.

I am using my time, talent and treasures in better ways because I realize that each day is a gift.

Today I am focused on my goals and priorities because I am learning how to keep the main thing...

THE MAIN THING!

I can say “no” to unnecessary demands of my time, money and energy.

I can say “yes” to; God, success, my destiny and my well-being.

I am open to receive "unusual blessings of favor."

I am too blessed to be stressed.

I see and feel something new in myself and in those around me. My possibilities and potential for success are unlimited.

I am discovering the truth that sets me free to be more whole, relaxed, trusting, active and optimistic.

I am always in the right place at the right time with the right outlook.

My very presence impacts others in a positive way.

I am attracting into my life people and circumstances to take my life to the next level of awareness and abundance.

Those things that use to tempt and tear me apart, no longer hold so much power over me because I am learning each day how to stay in the light of God's power, peace, protection, provision and a positive state of mind.

This is a brand new day and I will be glad in it.

Yes, there will be issues out of my control and yet opportunities to grow in my faith and courage.

No matter what challenges or changes I must face today, this is the day the Lord has made.

All my needs are met.

I am still here and there is nothing that is going to happen today that my God and I together can't handle.

I will do my best to reduce my stress and until further notice...

God is in charge.

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, your words can bring life or death, peace or stress, sickness or health into yours and or someone else s life. please promise to read these "Affirmations and Declarations" above a minimum of twice a day. In case of emergency read it three times a day to continue building up your immune system against the attack of doubt, fear, procrastination or stress.

Polish up your faith. Let your light shine. God bless you. I love you all.

Thank you Jewel Diamond Taylor. The past five years, you've been a tremendous blessing to me and my ministry.

About Me

My photo
I'm just a nobody, trying to tell everybody about Somebody who can save anybody. I give all honor to the Father for the privilege of being His instrument, through whom He lives and works for His glory alone. I served in the U.S. Navy for 21 years, retiring in September 2003. In my final three years, I was co-pastor at Greater New Refuge COGIC in Fallon, Nevada, under Pastor Gregory L. Brown. I supported my pastor and church by helping with a new sanctuary's construction and caring for all ministry needs while staying true to my mandate to preach the Word of God without compromise. In November 2002, I was licensed to preach and ordained in June 2003. While stationed in Virginia Beach, I served at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church for 17 years under Bishop-Elect W.D. Scott, Sr., and now I serve at Calvary Revival Church in Norfolk, VA, under Bishop B. Courtney McBath. I also earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Religion from Saint Leo University, deepening my foundation and commitment to this path of faith.

MY THEOLOGICAL TRAINING:

It brings to my face a unadulterated smile each and every occasion I am asked, “Elder Dre, What Theological Training do you have?”

My heart beams with joy at the opportunity to humbly give full glory to God as I reflect on on how the prophets, patriarchs and apostles of old would have respond: Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joshua, Gideon, King David, Elijah, Elisha, Jeremiah, John the Baptist, Matthew, Mark, Peter, James, John and the other disciples, not forgetting the Saviour Himself.

How would they have answered the question: “What theological training do you have?”

The words of the prophet Amos also came to mind: “Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet’s son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit:” Amos 7:14

I surely am not impliedly decrying theological preparation, education or training: I consider it essential, but not as much as some think. For the fact is, the Almighty raises up believers according to His own standards.

Educational qualifications, wealth, fame, talent, social standing, outward appearance etc. are useful; but they are secondary in His sight. Qualities like faith, obedience, holiness, humility, honesty, absolute loyalty to one’s spouse, the ability to raise one’s family to fear God and keep His commandments etc.; these are the things the Most High values.

“Man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.”

Only on the Day of Judgment will it be known how truly educated, weighty and effective I have been. That is why I have to smile when the question arise.

The vanity of the question is only matched by the foolishness of my answer.

As the wise man wrote: “Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher; all is vanity.” Ecclesiastes 1: 2 or as the apostle Paul commented in 2 Corinthians 11:16-30 when rattling off a long list of impressive qualifications “... I speak as a fool.”

Furthermore, we have seen with our own eyes and now testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. All who proclaim that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. 1 John 4:14-15 (NLT)

I am a preacher, but most of all, I proclaim that Jesus is the Savior with various applications of that truth in my everyday life. My dear friend, if you are a Christian, you are a preacher also. Whether you have been ordained or not, hired by a church or not, or ever been recognized as a preacher or not is beside the point. All who have God living in them are called to proclaim the Savior to the world. It is a Holy calling, and a demanding one. It will pull you out of your comfort zone, challenge your commitment, and help to develop you into the person God has created you to be.

John spoke as an eyewitness to Jesus' saving power. We speak as heart-witnesses; ones who have not seen Jesus with our eyes, but have experienced Him through personal transformation. I speak, and you speak, as a representative of Christ on earth. The message that we bring is simple, yet profound; that God the Father sent God the Son into the world to save those who are lost to bring them into relationship with Him. As you tell the story, and I tell the story, some will listen and receive the grace that God has sent us into the world to proclaim.

PRAYER THOUGHT: Father, what a privilege to be a spokesperson for You.

Thank you for stopping by. Stay encouraged and please do come back.
