JOY'S SELF DECLARATIONS
A MESSAGE FROM THE AUTHOR
I dedicate my first book to my dear husband and best friend
Anthony D’Penha and my son and fun buddy Aldridge D’Penha, who have encouraged
me and inspired me to write my first book.
I thank them for their patience, and for the time that I got to myself
in writing this book. For putting up
with me, all those late nights that I was up with the lights on, and for the
meals that they prepared to put food on the table while I was busy. I thank God for my family. They are my inspiration.
In this book I have compiled my thoughts about what people
go through in general in their daily lives.
It is easy to get disheartened with the negative situations around
us. Even so, more when you associate
with negative people. It is very easy to
get depressed and be left without hope.
Here is a read for each one of you to give you the HOPE and ASPIRATION
to move on. To awaken your self
awareness behavior. To make a
difference in somebody’s life. To give you self confidence and encourage you to
be strong. To motivate you and others,
and to lift our spirits up high from getting drowned in our worries and concerns,
and most importantly, believe in ourselves and help others to believe in
themselves.
I love reading and writing and helping others. I have spent
hours and hours of reading and writing.
I have written many poems right from the age of 21 years, but this is my first
book that I have written and self published.
If you are reading this book right now, you have a positive personality
and love to make a difference in someone else’s life. I request you to share it with your friends
and loved ones.
Read one declaration everyday and cogitate about what you
read, during the day. See how you can
relate the declaration you read each day.
Surround yourself with positive thoughts and remember, “Whatever you
sow, so shall you reap” So, sow good thoughts in you, about you, and your loved
ones because only YOU can control what YOU THINK.
At the end of each session, make the time to write your own
self declarations, pertaining to your very own life, and speak powerful words
over your life to bring about positivity in your life.
Sincerely,
Joy N. D’Penha
TODAY, I declare
that every morning I will wake up glorifying God. I will put God first before
anyone and anything, before I start my day, before I step out of my house,
before I start my car, before I plan my work, my business, my school, my walk,
my exercise, my sleep, my party, my swimming, my games. God will make all crooked ways straight when
I put Him first. I have nothing to fear when He is with me. I trust Him
completely. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I will put myself in the other persons shoes before I say anything. I will
use my God given wisdom to understand their situation, with a cool calm mind,
even if they have been rude to me. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
I will be considerate to others’ feelings and actions because not everyone
comes with a label of being handicapped, physically or mentally or critically
ill. Each one is fighting a fight and I
will not add to their fight. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
I will use my words to uplift people, understand their situation, speak kind
words, to bring peace and harmony, with whomever I interact with today. This is
my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that today is a new day, with new beginnings,
new victories, new opportunities, new friendships, new blessings, new
breakthroughs, new miracles. Yesterday is gone and I am a new person today. This
is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare,
Victory is mine all the way. I will flourish in whatever I do. My work, my actions, my thoughts will only
bring about victory. Every path I travel
will only lead to my victory. Any
obstacles that come my way will turn into a stepping-stone for my great
Victory. I will thrive all the way as far as I am always with my creator and He
in me. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
when the devil closes one door, God will open several more doors. Doors of
opportunities, doors of financial prosperity, doors of new business, doors of
job prosperity, doors of healing of mind and body, doors of partnership and
friendship, doors of intelligence and wisdom, doors of honour and recognition.
No one will be able to close the doors that God has opened for me. This is my
declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I will be happy. Happy about my existence. Happy about my successes and
lessons I learned from my failures. Happy for being a blessing to someone.
Happy for my family and friends. Happy that I am useful. Happy that God loves
me no matter what and that I can count on Him. Happy that I am capable. Happy
that I am strong in mind and body. My happiness has no end and is contagious to
all Gods people. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I will continue to work hard at my job, my business, and my daily life.
Whether I must deal with an easy person or a difficult person, whether I am
trying for the first time or the 10th time I will keep striving because I know
my success is for sure. God is always on my side whether I like the result or
no, because He knows what is best for me. He will never harm me nor forsake me.
He will take me from glory to glory and victory is mine. This is my declaration
for today.
TODAY, I declare
I will make wise decisions. Nothing is going to stop me from keeping calm and
think wisely. My today’s decisions will build my tomorrow. I am going to build
a bright future for me, and I can see it. No anger, nor fear nor depression nor
jealousy will get me down. This is the devils work and I boldly condemn the
devil and his works. As long as I hold on to God’s hands, He will fight the
works of the devil for me. God will help me face my today with strength and
dignity and help me make wise decisions. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare every
closed door that is equipped for my success will be opened by my creator for my
victory. He has planned my future before I was born, and He will bring it to
pass. He knows exactly how much I can endure and will not give me more than I
can manage. I believe all the pain and stress I go through is His way to
strengthen my mind and soul and body and make me a new person. A person that
God wants me to be until He knows I am capable to enter the door that He has
opened. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
I walk in the manner worthy of God. I bear fruit in every good work, and I
increase in the knowledge of God. I have been strengthened in the power of God.
I have great endurance and patience. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I honour the Lord with my first produce. Then my barns will be filled with
plenty. I bring the whole tithe into the storehouse. He opens the windows of
heaven for me and pours out a blessing for me so great that I do not have
enough room for it. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I am blessed when I come in and I am blessed when I go out. The Lord
causes my enemies who revolt against me to be defeated before my face. They
come out against me one way and flee before me in seven ways. With God beside
me, the enemy’s plan will not be successful. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that my body is a temple of God and I love and respect my body and keep it
clean inside out in body, mind and soul. I will not harm my body, for reasons
that I love my God, and that the Holy Spirit of God resides in me because I
welcome the Holy Spirit of God to be with me and guide me all the way. This is
my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare I am being strengthened with all power according
to His might, I have great endurance and patience. God has not given me a
spirit of fear. He has given me the power, love, and self discipline. My Lord
loads me daily with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He is my salvation. This is
my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that God can do everything. There is nothing impossible with God. He reads our
minds, and no thoughts can be withheld from Him. Without knowledge and wisdom,
I understand and hear Him not, things too wonderful for me that I knew not
because I am blinded. Therefore, I abhor myself and repent in dust and ashes so
that God will open my eyes and ears to His wisdom and understanding for my good
and the good of my family. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I will call out to my God early in the morning. In the morning will I
direct my prayer unto thee and will look up. I will fear thee and worship thee
with all my heart, with all my mind and with all my soul. I will dedicate my
whole self to thee in the morning so that You will direct my ways all day. This
is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that my God already
knows what is good for me and what are all my needs even before I ask of Him. I
will seek Him first and His righteousness and all the things that I need will
follow me. He is the source of all my needs and once I seek Him, I will have
overflowing abundance. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that today is a new day and together I agree in the name of the living God and
Jesus Christ with at least two or three of you that new beginnings, spiritual
refreshing will come upon us for those who have been in the wilderness and
waiting for God’s blessings to nourish us and lift us up in great heights.
Today is the day the ancient doors of heaven will pour out love, peace and
financial prosperity for all of us. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I will give
all my worries to God. Once I give it up to Him, He will fight all my battles.
He will honor my silence and see my cry and reward me 100 folds more. My
enemies will flee, and none will touch me or come near me. God will honor me
in front of those who look down upon me and put them to shame. Victory will be
mine. This is the time for my miracle. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I am a go giver. Giver of love, giver of charity, giver of respect, giver
of time for others. Give my hard work for my family and kids and friends. Give
a smile to all I meet. Give a listening ear to the lonely and disheartened. The
more I give, the more I get in return. I find happiness and peace when I give
and whatever I give is good in the eyes of my God and He gives me in turn 100-fold
times more and satisfies all my needs. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I am the child
of the Most High. My Father has a great plan for me and lifts me in great
heights. He continues to bless me and uplift me and strengthens me in my
weakness. His plan for me is perfect. I will continue to put my trust in the
Lord who created heaven and earth. He will bring me out of the ditch, and He
will glorify His name in me. I will praise His holy name amid the people. This
is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I am a forgiver. I will forgive all those who have hurt me. It gives me
peace of mind from forgiving all my enemies. When I pray for my enemies, I
unblock all blessings. God fills me with peace. New doors open new
opportunities and God nourishes these opportunities and brings great success
and God connects me to the right people to bring in flowing prosperity at my
work and business. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that God has made me beautiful inside out. I have the power to attract people
not only with my external beauty but mostly with my internal beauty. People get
attracted to me the way I approach them with my politeness and kindness, my way
of understanding them, truly believe each one is beautiful, comforting people
who are broken hearted and loving people unconditionally beginning with my own
family and friends and enemies. Forgiving people and not keeping any grudge.
Giving my everything without expecting anything in return. This is my
declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
my praises to my Lord this morning. All I want to do is only praise my God. “My
Lord You deserves all the glory and the honour, and we lift our voice and
worship Thee and we praise Your Holy name. You are great. You do miracles so great, there is no one else
like You. There is none like You. This is my praiseworthy song and declaration
for today.
TODAY, I declare
that I will pray for my enemies, I will pray for those who have hurt me, I will
pray for those who backbite me and talk ill about me, for those who laugh at me
and mock me. I will pray for their good health, their prosperity, and their
well being, for God to melt and open their hearts. I will have no hurt feelings
against them. They might have put their blinders on now, but God will change
them for the good. This will not only benefit them, but it will benefit me too.
I will have peace of mind. Blessings that have been blocked will start flowing
in my favour. My dreams will come to pass, and I will be a victor with God in
my side. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
I will not reminisce on my past failures, past grudges, past depressions, past
fights because I know this is what the devil wants me to live on and I defy the
devil and reject his authority over me and remind him of his end in the pit of
fire. I will not dwell on my past. I will not occupy my thoughts with
negativity and will not use my energy and waste my time on these activities. I
will use my time and energy and strength to be positive, think positive and act
positive according to God’s will in my life because He is the source of all
good things and from now onward, I expect only good things to happen in my
life. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
I have a guardian angel whom God has appointed for my guidance and protection.
My guardian angel sees what I am going through each day, and he travels to and from
Heaven as a messenger to my Lord. My Lord sees his face and gives him
instructions to open doors for me to prosper me and keep me in good health and
makes a way to provide my daily needs. I am in partnership with my guardian angel,
and I thank God for this gift. This is my declaration for today. Good morning
and God bless you.
TODAY, I declare when I am in distress, I will look up unto You
Oh Lord. You are my only help. When I do not know what to do, I will call upon
You for Your guidance. When I do not know how to pray, I will fall on my knees
and cry unto You. You know my thoughts and read my mind; I do not have to be
perfect in my words. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that, as long as I sought the Lord and walk with Him and have a relationship
with Him, He will prosper me, He will use me for His glory, He will protect me
and my family and my pets and my loved ones. He will open doors of financial
prosperity, good health and happiness, blessings, and breakthroughs. For this I
will commune daily with God and build an inseparable bond between us. This is
my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that no one can harm me physically, mentally, and spiritually when God is with
me. At my workplace, my enemies have no power over me, all that they have
planned against me has no power and will be destroyed by the very power of God.
God will destroy every act of evil thought, evil actions, unkindness inequality
and discrimination against me. Because I honour my God and Glorify His name, So,
also will God honour me in front of others, and He will bring me out of all
bondages and bring me victory in front of my enemies and I am blessed with
success among all the people at my workplace. I will succeed above all with
Gods help. In Jesus name. My enemies will drop their jaws and wonder with no
understanding because victory is MINE. Amen.
This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I shall rebuke
any thought of action of mine after a feeling of fear, anger, depression, lust,
hatred, jealousy, and ungodly things, and understand that it is from the devil
and not from God. I will remember God is love and kindness. This is my
declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare
that no sickness will touch me, not even the Corona Virus has power over me. Any
sickness has no power over me and my family. It is powerless and will go down
with the devil in the pit of fire. It will remain in the pit of fire because my
God is my Saviour and my Deliverer, my King, my Lord, my Mighty Warrior, my Helper
and my Best Friend who is sitting on the throne of power and authority.
TODAY, I declare
breakthroughs are coming in my life. Sudden bursts of God’s goodness. An
overflowing river of God’s power. A flood of healing. A flood of wisdom. A
flood of favour. A flood of miracles. I
am a breakthrough person and I choose to live breakthrough minded. This is my
declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare complete health
over me, my family and friends, my pets, and neighbours. No evil will come near us, and no sickness
will touch us in the very name of Jesus.
This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that today is a new
day, filled with miracles, breakthroughs, opportunities, and blessings. God has paved the way for me and is guiding
me throughout this day to bring about happiness, great success, protection, and
guidance from above. This is my
declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that Jesus is my
very best friend. I could not have a
better friend than Him. He understands
me, talks with me, guides my path, walks with me, and holds me when I need a
hug. He assures me that He is always
with me and even sometimes when I fail Him, He is still with me, waiting for me
to let Him in my heart. This is my
declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I am a sinner,
I have greatly sinned knowingly and unknowingly. But I have a gracious Father in Heaven who is
forever forgiving, and He forgives all my sins through His only son Jesus
Christ, who died for my sins even before I was conceived in my mother’s womb.
My wonderful God and Counsellor. Forever
will I love Him. This is my declaration
for today.
TODAY, I declare that I will take
responsibility of all of myself. My
health, my well being, my wealth, my house, my family, my pets, my community,
my surrounding, my emotions, my actions. Everything that concerns me. It starts
in me and from me. This is my
declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I will make a
difference in someone else’s life. May
it simply be by giving an ear to their grievances, giving a smile to a
stranger, spending time with a senior, talking with a neighbour who is lonely,
encouraging someone who is weak, giving hope to the hopeless, visiting the pets
in the shelter, donating food, clothes, money, and time to the needy. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I will not
waste my time. Time is precious and time
is money. I will invest my time in
multiplying anything that is worth and helpful.
Be it money, friendship, to share love, compassion, hope, joy, and
happiness, heal a wounded heart, I will make use of my time to be the
difference in someone’s life. This is my
declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I will watch
out for my habits. Good and bad. Good I will do more and multiply and the bad
I will consciously avoid and stop. Good
habits are those that will bring me, and others happiness and bad habits are
those that will hurt me and others. This
is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I will be good
to my life, my spouse, my kids, my job, my business, my pets, my neighbors, my
community, my country. I will talk good
things about them to them and others. I
will not backbite and be rude to them.
God will continue to fight my battles with those who are unjust to me,
and I will continue to be nice to them. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that I will make
use of all that I have, to praise and glorify God. Whether it be my hands, feet, eyes, lips,
thought, actions, money. All that I have is given to me by my God and to Him
will I give back by doing good to the less fortunate. This is my declaration for today.
TODAY, I declare that my existence
is a miracle, everyday is a miracle for me.
From the time I open my eyes in the morning, until I go to bed in the
night, I experience abundance of miracles in my life. This is my declaration for today.
THESE ARE MY OWN SELF DECLARATIONS
