DECLARATION OF EMANCIPATION
Copyright ©2013 Dale J Mayer
all rights reserved

Being that I, Dale J Mayer,
formerly a slave of sin,

have been forever freed from bondage
through the sacrificial work
of Christ my Saviour
and the grace of God my Father
and the sanctification of the Holy Spirit,

I do hereby make
this Declaration of Emancipation
to serve notice to all the powers of darkness
and also to myself that I am now a son, and no longer a slave.

Therefore...
I have decided...
to stop wasting time bemoaning
everyone that has done me wrong
and everything that has not gone my way.

I have decided...
to let it all go and press on in the ministry
that I know I should be doing.

I have decided...
to live in the freedom purchased for me
by Christ Jesus, my Savior

No more whining,
No more crying,
No more "victim mentality"

I will practice the four FOR's...
I will FOR-bear all things
I will FOR-give all things
I will FOR-get all things
I will FOR-ward march to the mark
of the high calling of God
in Christ Jesus

FOR God so loved the world
that He gave His only begotten son,
that whosoever believeth in Him
should not perish,
but have everlasting life!

In Jesus Christ...
I am NOT a victim, I am a VICTOR
No weapon formed against me
shall prevail
I am NOT helpless, I can do ALL THINGS
Nothing will be impossible for me

In Jesus Christ...
I am NOT rejected, I am LOVED by
my Father God and accepted by Him.
He paid the highest price for me.
I am NOT abandoned, God is WITH me.
He will never forsake me.

In Jesus Christ...
I am NOT a loser,
I am MORE than a CONQUEROR
through Him who loved me.
I am NOT hopeless, I am born again
into a LIVING HOPE
through the resurrection
of Christ from the dead.

I am Dale...
child of the most high God,
creator of the universe.
I am Dale...
forgiven and free
I am Dale...
loved and accepted
I am Dale...
and I look a lot like Jesus
