2 Timothy 1:8,9- “Be not, therefore, ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner; but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God; who hath saved us, called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began.”
Romans 1:16- “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes; to the Jew first and also to the Greek.”
This is a good declaration to begin each day by boldly declaring aloud. It will change how you handle your time, money, and what you think to be important! It will also help change your motivation and drive to ascend to higher ideals and goals which will leave a bigger mark on your world for Jesus Christ. Have a blessed month as you declare Him unashamedly. God Bless you. Bro. George A. Johnson.
Declaration:
I am a part of The Fellowship of the Unashamed. I have Holy Spirit power. The die is cast. I have stepped over the line. I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I will not look back, let up, slow down, back away, or be still. My past is redeemed, my present makes sense and my future is secure. I am finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, lame visions, mundane talking, chintzy (little) giving and dwarfed goals!
I no longer need preeminence, prosperity, promotions, plaudits, or popularity. I do not have to be right, first, tops, recognized, praised, regarded or rewarded. I now live by His Presence, learn by faith, love by patience, lift by prayer and labor by power.
My pace is set, my gait is fast, my goal is heaven, my road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions few, my guide reliable and my mission clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, deterred, lured away turned back, diluted, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of adversity, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity.
I won’t give up, back up, let up, or shut up until I have preached up, prayed up, stored up and stayed up for the cause of Christ.
I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I must go until He returns, give until I drop, preach until all know and work until He comes. And when He comes to get his own, He will have no problem recognizing me. My colors will be clear.
