He said it and I am affirming it

Affirming God’s Word over yourself and others is crucial because it speaks life into your spirit, body and soul. Affirmation Prayer is a way of entering into prayer. It takes the example of Our Lord at prayer drawn from the accounts in the Gospels. In John 17:8, Jesus says to his Father in prayer: "For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them." 

In Affirmation Prayer we listen to these "words" and indeed to the One who "gave" them — for the Lord Jesus is himself the Word behind the words and is the Word within the words. The word "to affirm" means to strengthen, to endorse, to assert as true, to declare support for. It always expresses a relationship between the speaker and what is affirmed. Also, there is always a confidence and positiveness in the act of affirming.

In Affirmation Prayer we humbly seek to affirm God, but in the process we ourselves are also affirmed. We proclaim with confidence and joy our total belief in and love of God using His own inspired Scriptures. It is a demonstration of unlimited expressions of faith, trust, dependence and love. As we offer these to God, we are strengthened, empowered, built up in our most Holy Faith, and equipped to interface with an unbelieving world. In Affirmation Prayer we demonstrate an intense desire to listen to Jesus Christ the Word of God and to become wholly united with him: to abide in him. 

On this Intercession, take to heart the forthcoming scriptures and you will understand the importance of speaking out loud all or some of the following scriptures over yourself every day. If you speak negative over yourself and others, you are speaking the words of the enemy and those words will hold you in bondage.

Faith comes more quickly when you hear yourself quoting, speaking, and saying the things God said. You will more readily receive God’s Word into your spirit by hearing yourself say it OUT LOUD everyday than if you hear someone else say it. Hearing yourself speak the Word of God out loud everyday for thirty days will change your life. 


“So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God” ~ Romans 10:17.
