“Our country is in the best shape ever.” 

The messaging we so often hear from government leaders runs contrary to what we see destroying our nation—abortion, addiction, identity confusion, violence, inflation, homelessness, the rise of wicked social platforms, corruption in government and business, incessant lies and indoctrination in our schools… the list is endless.

Which leaves us wondering—Do we actually live in the same country?
 
Though tempting to refute such glib declarations, the Spirit of God seems to be saying otherwise—Do not rely on what you see in the natural realm. Come into agreement with me for this declaration to come to fruition. For out of your mouth come life and death!

In other words, turn the enemy’s lies against them to prosper the Truth of what God is doing to redeem our nation to Himself.
 
Your words are so powerful that they will kill or give life, and the talkative person will reap the consequences. Proverbs 18:21
 
Make this your declaration of faith in agreement with the Father’s view that our country is in its best shape ever! We carry authority to decree something before we actually see it manifest. This is the very definition of faith—Faith is the substance of things hoped for…
 
Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen. Hebrews 11:1
 
In this way we hear the Spirit say, Look again! See what I see. The nation actually is in the best shape ever because My church is awakening. My people are praying. My Remnant is arising! Revival is here! 
 
We choose to agree with what we see in the world or what we see in the Spirit! We choose to make death declarations or to make faith declarations that overturn the wicked plans of the enemy. It’s our choice to stand in faith for the manifestation of things we do not yet see!
 
We declare—
 
The remnant is arising.
The Ekklesia is moving into its rightful position and authority.
The King and His kingdom are advancing.
Our country is in the best shape ever!
 
 What faith declaration is the Spirit prompting you to make for your country?

 How does your obedience enable you to move into your rightful position and authority?

 How do you see your part in advancing the kingdom of God?
