Daughters of the Revolution

Daughters of the Revolution


“Prophetic declarations release God’s power to bring about change in our lives!”  
Kris Valloton from his book "The Supernatural Ways of Royalty"
If making declarations releases supernatural change in our lives, and hearing the Word of God gives us faith, then isn’t it worth speaking declarations over the desires of our heart?!   The important thing to remember is that this is not just for your seemingly self-serving desire, there is another person out there longing to marry YOU!  Marriage is the God designed destiny for both of your lives!  
Revolution from Webster’s:  
1)  a sudden, radical, or complete change
2)  a fundamental change in the way of thinking about or visualizing something.

For several days when I first sent out the 40 Days of Declarations emails, the chorus of a song was stuck in my head.  It is not a song or artist I would choose to listen to, therefore after 3 days, I paid attention to the song.  This might be a stretch, but I have learned that God encourages stretching.  
Tracy Chapman, “Talking ‘bout a Revolution”.  
Don’t you know, they’re talkin ‘bout a revolutionIt sounds like a whisper....
And finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin 'bout a revolution
Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin 'bout a revolution, oh no
Talkin ‘bout a revolution, oh no, talkin bout a revolution, oh no
The song is about ending poverty, and we are declaring a revolution to end the relational poverty in our lives and the lives of others called to Kingdom Marriage.  There is a severe issue of Marriage Poverty in our world, and it needs to shift - the tables need to be turned.  As we make declarations with the powerful Word of God, and according to His will, we are demolishing the delays and diversions we have been experiencing.  
Expect the victory in this revolution!  

Psalm 23 - NKJV
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
         You anoint my head with oil;
         My cup runs over.

The oil in this verse is the perfumed oil representing God’s Favor.  
Psalm 23 - The Message.  
 5 You serve me a six-course dinner
      right in front of my enemies.
   You revive my drooping head;
      my cup brims with blessing.


 6 Your beauty and love chase after me
      every day of my life.
   I'm back home in the house of God
      for the rest of my life.

When my sister Lisa visits Colorado from Virginia, we usually enjoy a box of sake together at Sushi Den.  The sake is poured into a little box until it overflows, and the Japanese tradition is to declare overflowing prosperity and blessings as the sake brims the cup and then flows over the top!  We always think of Psalm 23, and Queen Esther. 
Declarations:   
Thank you LORD for this season of giving and hope.  Restore and infuse hope to those suffering from the oppression of poverty - whether financial, relational or both.  God we need Your mighty miracle working power in our lives!  
  • It may have started as a whisper, but we declare a Marriage Revolution!  and the END to relational, marriage, and financial poverty in our lives, and for all who are called to unite in Kingdom Marriage.
  • God said in the beginning that “it is not good for man to be alone”; therefore we declare the “suitable companions” are coming together. 
  • We are the Daughters of this Revolution, and we declare “sudden radical and complete changes” in the area of relationships for ALL of the women and men called to Kingdom marriages.  
  • We declare a “fundamental change in the way of thinking about or visualizing something”; a change in the thinking of the men and women - that all of us will receive God’s vision for marriage, and the person He has designed for us. 
  • We declare that the tables of relational poverty are turning!  The shift is happening NOW!
  • We declare that our King, the LORD, prepares a banqueting table before us in the presence of our enemies!  
  • The King anoints our heads with the oil of His Favor; just as He gave His Favor to Ruth when she met Boaz, and to Esther when she met her king.  
  • We declare that our cups are overflowing with blessing and prosperity! 
  • And we declare that the beauty and love of the King of kings is “chasing after us all the days of our lives! “ 
Be strong! O Revolutionary Daughter of the King!  and let Him be the lifter of your head.  Be encouraged.  As you make declarations, your faith is increasing.  “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by [speaking] the Word of God.”
AMEN!
Expecting to be amazed ~
