DECLARATIONS OF JOY
(from Steve Backlund)
THE SCRIPTURE
“The joy of the Lord is your strength” (Nehemiah 8:10).
“A merry heart does good, like medicine” (Proverbs 17:22).
“In Your presence is fullness of joy” (Psalm 16:11).
THE DECLARATIONS (Repeat these, saying them out loud, many times
today.)
• I am an outrageously joyful person.
• My joy level is increasing daily, and I have been created
to experience fullness of joy.
• Even in the midst of uncertainty, I live from a place of
unshakeable joy.
• My joy levels do not depend on circumstances or how I
feel.
• I love to laugh out loud, and I purpose to do so
frequently.
• I experience great joy in my life even before I see the
breakthroughs I am believing for.
• I naturally know when to “weep with those who weep” and
“rejoice with those who rejoice.”
• I am a carrier of infectious joy, and I release joy to
others.
• My joy & laughter are powerful weapons of spiritual
warfare and help create breakthrough in my own life and the lives of those
around me.
• I reject foreboding and embrace hope and joy.
• I am building a stronghold of joy in my life.
