What are You Declaring
Another version of that scripture states, that those who love to talk, reap the consequences of what they say. We’ve all heard of self-fulfilling prophecy and in some instances, we may say that we are simply being realistic or pragmatic. I believe that the contrasting view, is optimism and avoiding negativity. I don’t know about you, but sitting around talking about sad stories and the sorry state of the world, creates feelings of depression and doom.
There are spiritual laws that govern the universe including the law of confession. “You will also declare a thing, And it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways” (Job 22: 28). “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7).
Let us arise each morning to command our day and our week and decree what will manifest. We can use spiritual principles grounded in the word of God and we declare the promises in the word over our lives. We declare that although we feel weak, that we are strong in Christ Jesus. We are rich because our father owns the wealth of the world. We are victorious because we place our trust and confidence in God and while we worship, God fights our battles. We are the righteousness of God, head and not the tail, above and not beneath. We are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus.
We use our words to declare, not what we can see, but by faith those things that we cannot see and watch them manifest. “Who gives life to the dead and speaks of the nonexistent things that [He has foretold and promised] as if they [already] existed” (Romans 4:17).
LeSpeak life to whatever seems dead in your life. Use your words to decree and declare what must come into existence. Use your words to shape your life and destiny. “Son of man, can these bones live? Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord’” (Ezekiel 37:3-4)!

I am a trained Social Worker who currently provides professional leadership on a programme to support Social Work students and Newly Qualified Social Workers entering the Social Work Profession.
Born and raised in Jamaica in a Christian family where my father is an ordained Pastor and Deacon who has served for over 50 years in the ministry. My father is also a trained musician and our family can be described as a musical family. I grew up in a small farming community in St. Peter’s, St. Andrew and my parents also have a small farm.
I credit my gift of writing to my father who I watched and listened to over the years as he wrote sermons, poems and other recitals in his capacity in ministry. English has always been an easy subject for me and over the years I have developed an increased interest in writing.
I am a Trainer, I sing and have a passion for worship, the spoken word and the free flow of the prophetic anointing. I am married to my best friend Andrew Christopher Young who is an advanced Musician and whose music you can find on YouTube and Facebook. I am a trained Coach and Mentor and I love experimenting with food so I love cooking. I enjoy trying cultural dishes from across the world and I view food as an entry into cultures and languages.
