Robert Kreps:
I'm attempting to build a decree based off the fact that a soft tongue breaketh a bone, and with patience a ruler can be persuaded. Period. John Wooden tells a story of a day in the fields where this ox won't get up.(it may be a mule mname Kate and tell this story first ) I think that's what it was, and he's kicking at it and screaming at it. And then his dad comes up and speaks really softly to it, and he rises. What a great picture of the Proverbs, that a soft tongue can breaketh a bone. That to something that is unyielding, or feels like it's impassible, you don't get there by screaming at it or being demanding, but by speaking softly. That a soft word can do the breaking.
Samantha Hassinger:
Why does the same thing keep happening to me? If you keep facing the same battle, God may be going after the root. David was anointed king young but didn’t take the throne until he was 30 (2 Samuel 5:4). What did God have to root out of him first?
In this Daily Decree, Robo Kreps prays over three things:
1 The root of insecurity and the fear of man. “The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is safe” (Proverbs 29:25). God did not give you a spirit of fear (2 Timothy 1:7).
2 Challenges. Trials produce steadfastness (James 1:2–3). It’s not a challenge unless you actually have a chance of failure, and some challenges are so big you don’t know you can overcome them until God gives them to you. “I can never go back to who I was last year. That only happens through a challenge.”
3 Who you are. God cares about your development and your character, and He gave you the right to become a child of God (John 1:12).
Then Robo leads decrees you can say with him (they’re on screen so you can agree in real time):
I bind the spirit of insecurity off my life.
I walk in the fear of the Lord, not the fear of man.
I welcome challenges with joy.
I am a child of God.
Save this one, and send it to someone who keeps fighting the same battle.
In this decree:
• The goal: get rid of the bad roots
• What God had to root out of David
• Why God revisits the same issues
• Binding the spirit of insecurity
• The fear of man vs. the fear of the Lord
• Thank God for challenges
• “It’s not a challenge unless you can fail”
• A challenge so big you get a testimony
• “I can never go back to who I was”
• God cares about your development
• Hunger: “It outed me”
• You are a child of God
• Prayer: You get the glory, not us
Questions to sit with today:
1 What issue keeps coming back in my life, and what might the root be?
2 Where am I living in the fear of man instead of the fear of the Lord?
3 What challenge am I in right now, and what is it revealing?
4 Who could I get around that would upgrade my character?
5 Do I live like a child of God?
Decree it in the comments: “I bind the spirit of insecurity off my life.” Then type “I agree.”
