Declare the Favor of God

​

I am the righteousness of God, therefore, I am entitled to the blessings and promises of the covenant of Abraham. Covenant favor of God surrounds the righteous, therefore, it surrounds me everywhere I go and in everything I do. I expect the favor of God to be in manifestation in my life right now. I will always have the favor of God. The favor of God is on me, it rests richly on me, it abounds abundantly in me and I am part of the generation that is experiencing it immeasurable, limitless and surpassing; therefore, the favor of God produces in my life: supernatural increase, promotion, restoration, honor, increased assets, greater victories, recognition, prominence, preferential treatment, petitions granted, policies and rules changed and battles won that I don’t even have to fight. The favor of God is on me, it goes before me; therefore my life will be exceptional from this day forward. I lay claim to the favor of God both with you Lord and with man in all my endeavors this day and every day for the rest of my life in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Declare Your Authority to Bind and Loose

​

It is a known fact that the true meaning of bind and loose is the authority to declare what God's mind is on a matter of doctrine or practice. This is what the early church did in Acts 15. To bind means to forbid or be unlawful and to loose is to allow or be lawful. The future tense (shall having been bound or loose) shows that this authority is only valid when used in submission to Christ's word or teaching. It does not give the church the authority to make up new teachings later in church history. Binding in this context has absolutely nothing to do with speaking words to Satan or demons.

Of course, the crucial issue is whether this is what Jesus meant by these teachings. What did He mean by the terms bind and loose? These words were commonly used by Jewish rabbis to permit and prohibit and so New Testament scholars agree that binding and loosing when used in this way, still retain the same basic meaning that they had in the Jewish culture of the first century.

Declarations

​

Heavenly Father, you said in your word that whatsoever I bind (forbid/prohibit) on earth is bound (forbidden/prohibited) in heaven, therefore, I bind (forbid/prohibit) satan and every angel that was kicked out of heaven with him to interfere with Your blessings coming into my life. I bind (forbid/prohibit) every principality, every power, every might and dominion, every ruler of darkness and every spirit in high places from interfering in my life. I bind (forbid/prohibit) every one of the demons from every square inch of the soul, body and spirit of myself, and (Insert Name/s) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. I bind (forbid/prohibit) every one of the demons from every area, every aspect, every action or influence in the lives or existence of myself, and (Insert Name/s) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

​

Heavenly Father, You also said that whatsoever I loose (allow/permit) on earth will be loosed (allowed/permitted) in heaven; therefore, I ask that you give the angels of heaven charge over me, and (Insert Name/s) according to Psalm 91. Jesus, I ask that you loosen (allow/permit) the angels to hearken the Word of God on our behalf. Please loosen (allow/permit) the angels to keep us in all our ways; to bear us up in their hands lest we dash our foot upon a stone; to accompany, defend and preserve us. The Word of God says that there shall no evil befall us nor shall any plague come near our dwelling. I thank you Jesus for the excellent job the heavenly angels do in protecting us from all evil. I thank you Lord that you said in your Word that you have delivered me, and (Insert Name/s) from all the snares and traps of satan and his demons and from the noisome pestilence. And I thank you Lord that You said with long life You will satisfy us if we set our love upon You. We have set our love upon You; therefore, I/we expect long life.
