Declarations for August: Receiving Divine Favor

by: Minister Denise N. Fyffe

As we step into the warm embrace of August, let us fill our hearts with the anticipation of divine favor. Just as the sun’s rays grow stronger, so may the favor of God shine brightly in our lives, illuminating our paths and guiding us towards our destined greatness. This month let’s focus on the theme of divine favor and how we can receive and walk in it, daily.

The Bible is rich with stories of individuals who received divine favor, and among the most compelling are the accounts of Daniel and his three friends—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Despite facing enormous challenges and adversities, these young men remained steadfast in their faith and were rewarded with extraordinary favor from God.

Daniel and the Hebrew Boys: Exemplars of Divine Favor

Daniel and his friends were taken captive to Babylon, a foreign land with a culture that was vastly different from their own. They were faced with the temptation to conform to the ways of the Babylonians, but they chose to remain faithful to God. This unwavering commitment to their faith attracted God’s favor upon their lives.

Daniel 1:9 tells us, “Now God had brought Daniel into favor and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs.” This verse highlights the divine favor Daniel received, which was instrumental in him gaining the respect and affection of the Babylonian officials. Similarly, in Daniel 3:30, it is recorded that “Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon.” Their faithfulness led to their promotion and recognition.

These stories remind us that when we remain faithful to God, even in the face of adversity, we attract His divine favor. As we navigate through August, let us draw inspiration from Daniel and his friends. Here are some steps we can take to receive and walk in divine favor:

1. Remain Faithful to God: Just like Daniel and the Hebrew boys, our faithfulness to God can open doors of favor. Stay committed to His commandments and live a life that honors Him.
2. Pray for Divine Favor: Consistently ask God for His favor in your daily prayers. Psalm 5:12 says, “For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt thou compass him as with a shield.”
3. Walk in Obedience: Obedience to God’s word is crucial. When we align our actions with His will, we position ourselves to receive His blessings. Isaiah 1:19 states, “If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land.”
4. Maintain a Spirit of Excellence: Daniel was known for his excellent spirit, which distinguished him from others (Daniel 6:3). Strive for excellence in all that you do, as it attracts favor.

Books on Declarations

Since the Lord impressed this practice on my spirit several years ago, I continue to make declarations as often as I can.

He has even blessed me with favor and allowed me to be His vessel for several Declarations books; including Declarations for My Life, Declarations for My Sons, Declarations for My Daughters, Declarations for My Spouse, Declarations for My Family, and Declarations for My Country.

I urge you to get a copy – or seven – and learn about declarations. I also encourage you to form the habit of making declarations, if not daily then at least every month.
