Declarations to Steady Your Heart

[Dr. Dorothy E. Hooks, PsyD]

I WILL NOT fear, because God told me, “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.” Isaiah 41:10 NLT

 

I WILL NOT fear, because Jesus HAS GIVEN me HIS Peace; Jesus told me, “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” John 14:27 NKJV

 

I WILL NOT ALLOW my heart to be troubled, because Jesus told me, “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me.” John 14:1 NLT

 

When fear tries to come, I WILL draw strength from my Comforter, Helper, Holy Spirit, Who lives in my spirit man, with Abba Father, and Jesus my Lord, and Savior, and ALLOW Him to comfort me. Jesus promised me the Holy Spirit when He left. Jesus said, “But the Comforter, Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.” John 14:26 NKJV

 

I WILL NOT be worried about ANYTHING; INSTEAD, I WILL pray about EVERYTHING! I WILL tell God what I need and thank him for all he HAS done. THEN I WILL experience GOD’S PEACE, which exceeds ANYTHING I can understand. GOD’S PEACE will guard my heart and mind as I live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 NLT

 

To keep the door closed on fear, anxiety, stress, and worry, I WILL FIX my thoughts on whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report - I WILL meditate on the things that have virtue and are praiseworthy. AND I WILL put into practice, apply the Word of God that I learn and have learned, to my life. THEN, the GOD OF PEACE WILL be with me. Philippians 4:8-9 (NLT; NKJV)

God's Blessings to you all and your families, as you embark on a journey of learning to love the Lord your God, with all your heart, all your soul, and with all your mind - THEN you will not have any problems, loving your neighbors as yourselves. Matthew 22:37-40 KJV
