I’m part of the fellowship of the unashamed.
I have Holy Spirit power. The die has been cast.
I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made.
I’m a disciple of His.
I won’t look back, let up, slow down, back away, or be still.
My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secure.
I’m finished with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth knees,
colorless dreams, tamed visions, mundane talking, and dwarfed goals.
I no longer need pre-eminence, prosperity, position, promotions, plaudits, or popularity.
I don’t have to be right, praised, regarded, or rewarded.
I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk by patience, lift by prayer, and labor by power.
My face is set, my goal is heaven, my road is narrow, my way rough,
my companions few, my guide reliable, my mission clear.
I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded or delayed.
I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence
of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy,
ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity.
I won’t give up, shut up, let up, until I have stayed up, stored up,
prayed up, paid up, preached up for the cause of Christ.
I am a disciple of Jesus. I must go till He comes, give till I drop,
preach till all know, and work till He stops me.
And when He comes for His own, He will have no problems recognizing me,
Because He will Know I am one He gave Power to!

AMEN! and amen :) i am in awe of you… even though i know the power comes to you thru the One & Only. you inspire me to speak more!!! xoxo
Thank you Tracie, Yes, very powerful. See the enemy has been lurking around lately a little too close for comfort. Reading this post just reaffirms what I believe in….. the God that truely loves my family for who they are and what they will become. I will stand tall and proud. I will not let the enemy win I won’t even give him a thought…. As I have already won this battle, but will be prepared for more with his strength behind me to conquer anything/one that stands before my family with uglyness. LOVE LOVE LOVE !!!!!
You go, girl. Been thinking about you a lot. Avery wanted to read a Bible story tonight before bed, and it was the one about the mulberry grove and the mustard seed — it says God gives you all the faith you need; you just have to say “yes.” So true. :) Keep that chin up and keep putting your heart in His hands.
LOVE IT!! My favorite line is: I don’t have to be right, praised, regarded, or rewarded.
amen…affirmation is a powerful thing!
Just as I finish praying… now what Lord, I want to give up. I find your beautiful words. Thank you!!
I love this declaration. We use to proclaim this all the time in my youth group back in the day. I need to start again! Thank you for posting!
