Recently we have been talking about getting our hearts established in God's love and the righteousness of Jesus. To be established is to be firm, fixed, steadfast, and immovable.
In Job 22 AMP it says that if we will establish God's word in our hearts then we can decide and decree a thing and it will be established, and the light of God's favor will shine upon your ways.
Nothing happens in faith as long as we are wavering. Faith starts with a firm decision. Getting God's word and love established in our hearts should lead to making some different decisions. To decide is to kill off some options. Once we have come to a firm decision in our hearts then we can make some decrees and they will be established.
When I think of the word decree I think of a governmental decree, which is a written statement. Several times in my walk with God my faith has been tested and I had to come to the place of making a firm decision to do things his way. Almost every time the next step I took after making the decision was to write out a prayer or decree based on promises God made in his word. After writing out this prayer of petition I would sign it, date it, find someone to agree with me, and then take communion over the written decree as a symbol of my covenant with God. I have had several miraculous things happen in my life through this process.
Get God's word established in your heart by meditating on it, then come to a firm decision that it is true, write out of a prayer of agreement with God based on his promises, and these things will be established in your life.
