RESTORATION

Joel 2: 27 NKJV: “I am the Lord your God and there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame.”

FAITH CONFESSIONS from the PERSONALIZED PROMISE BIBLE

Joel 2: 19: “My Father sends me all the provision I need to be satisfied in life and do what He has called me to do. I carry with me the anointing—an ability to function successfully in every area of my life.”

Verse 2: 23: “As God’s son / daughter, I will rejoice and be glad continually, for He has given me a teacher and a Guide. He rains blessings down upon me like an autumn rain and causes me to gather a harvest even as I am sewing my seed.”

Verses 2: 25 – 29: “The Lord, my Father, repays me for all of the years that Satan restrained my harvest. I now have all that I need and enjoy daily the fullness of God’s way of living.

“I give all the praise, honor and glory to my heavenly Father who has done all of these mighty things on my behalf.

“I am very proud of my God; He is faithful to His Word. God, the One and only, dwells within me. He is on my side. So what do I care what the world thinks?

“Should I be ashamed because I do what is right? Should I be ashamed because I choose to seek the will of God instead of the will of men? I think not!

“The Holy Spirit has been poured out upon me and I prophesy and experience dreams and visions to the praise of His glory.

“He grants me this honor because He sees me as a quality individual. He does not see me as the world sees me, or even as I may see myself.

“To Him, I am precious and to be honored. It is His good pleasure to pour out His Spirit upon me.”

Verse 2: 32: “I have called on the name of the Lord and He has saved me.

“I have been delivered from the kingdom of darkness and translated into the kingdom of Jesus.

“The Lord called out my name and I responded. My destiny, from this day forward, is one of greatness.”

Verse 3: 9 & 10: “Though my victory has been sealed and the struggle for freedom is over; for me, there is still a war going on and I intend to fight it.

“ I prepare myself daily for the battle, rousing myself to a condition of perpetual vigilance.

“When the enemy raises his ugly head, I attack him without mercy. All of my sowing and reaping suddenly becomes a deadly weapon.

“I will not allow the weaknesses, failures, or foolishness of my past to hinder me. I stand and declare myself to be what God says I am. I am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might and well able to defeat the enemy on any ground.”

THE JOY OF THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH!
