Scripture Reading: PSALMS 23: 1-6

Focus

“The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalm 23: 1)

In our Focal Scripture, the psalmist proclaimed that the Lord is his shepherd, and that he shall not want. The word ‘want’ as used in that scripture, comes from the Hebrew word that is phonetically spelt as ‘khaw-sare’. One of the meanings of ‘khaw-sare’, is ‘to fail’. So the psalmist proclaimed that because the Lord is his shepherd, he will not fail. He proclaimed that because he under the Lordship of the Shepherd, failure is excluded.

Friend, hear me as I hear the Lord: because the Lord is your shepherd, you will not fail, and no man will cause you to fail. You will not fail in your destiny assignments. You will not fail in your destiny mandate. You will not fail in that which God has called you to do. You will not fail in the opportunities that heaven has made available to you. You will not fail in the days of adversity. You will not fail even if others have failed.

Hear me as I hear the Lord: failure is excluded from your destiny. Failure has been excluded from your career. Failure has been excluded from your business. Failure has been excluded from your relationships. Failure has been excluded from the works of your hands. Failure has been excluded from the battles that will ever arise against you. Failure has been excluded from your destiny journey. You are fully exempted from failure.

Today, I decree, the doors of failure are shut forever in your life, and the doors of success have been opened to you. The doors of congratulations are open to you. The doors of back to back good news are open to you. The doors of serial successes are open to you. Whatsoever your hands touch shall prosper. You belong to the generation that is cut out for success. You belong to the generation that succeeds where others fail.

Because the Lord is your shepherd, the chapters of failure that were once open in your life are closed forever. Henceforth, you will succeed even against all odds.

Declaration

I will not fail; I will not fall; I must succeed, in Jesus’ name!
