The motivation to post this "The power of I am" has come from my meditation and affirmation of God's greatest promises in the bible. I am still speaking and declaring, believing that one day all of what I declare and confess will come to pass. Some may happen now, some may take time to come to pass, but it will surely come to pass. Habakkuk 2:3-4.  Never give up. Declaring "I Am" at the beginning of every affirmative words you say will start looking for you. And if you keep saying it repetitively every day, the words will sprout and come to life as you have spoken. Below are some of the affirmative statements which is more easier to remember and confess anywhere anytime you're alone, or when you're resting or in your meditation time.  This works, if not now, it will surely come to pass. I hope you can add your own after reading this. I am Strong. I am Healed. I am Blessed. I am Successful. I am Prosperous. I am Beautiful.  I am Content. I am Victorious.

There's power in being thankful and grateful.  There are so many scriptures about Thanksgiving and praise in the bible. Being thankful in all circumstances is God's will for us.  "Thank you" are just two words that can change your life forever.  "Thank you" is a weapon. It's an expression of ones Faith.  In all circumstances give thanks.  Whether you go through tough situation or when your heart reaches the moon and back, be thankful.  When you're thankful, you show God that you trust him no matter the circumstances.  Being thankful frustrates the devil so much.

Hello and welcome back! Being positive, speaking positive and living a positive life in this dark age is not easy. Every day we deal with situations that challenges our faith, our lifestyle, our friendship, our jobs and family. And instead of confessing God's word over our situation, we decide to speak negative words that's contrary to our faith and beliefs. While some of these frustrations are meant to grow us stronger, some of the problems destroy our lives. Even as Christians and believers we struggle because of our negative confessions. God has prepared all the tools and weapons at our disposal. " HIS WORD" The devil hates to see us succeed in our carriers, family, and our personal relationship with Jesus. He hates to hear the word of God spoken out loud and everytime you confess openly the word, he trembles. Isn't that powerful? The word of God is life and spirit, Hebrews 4:12 God is not respecter of persons but he respects his word and st

A scripture a day keeps the sickness away. God is bound by his word. His word is his covenant.  He respects his word and stands to watch it come to pass.   The book of Psalms is THE WORD of GOD and is full of praise and worship, prayers for help, healing, protection and salvation. The word of God is alive and active,  sharper than any two-edged sword, it cuts all the way through to where soul and spirit meet, to where joint and narrow come together,  it judges the desires and thoughts of the heart. Proverbs 4:12 The word of God is medicine, bringing healing to wounds in body, soul and spirit. Just as medicine is administered to the body, God's divine healing is spiritual  and is administered through the human spirit.  The Healing Promises : 🔸️ Psalms 91:3 He will keep you safe from all hidden dangers and from all deadly diseases.  The word of God is a building block. As you speak the word over your health problems, it forms a hedge around your body. It penetrates through your ce
