The 10 Affirmations of “The Overcomer’s Covenant in Christ.”

I place all my trust and confidence in the Lord. I put no confidence in the flesh, and I declare myself to be dependent on God.

I consciously and deliberately choose to submit to God and resist the devil by denying myself, picking up my cross daily, and following Jesus. 

I choose to humble myself before the mighty hand of God in order that he may exalt me at the proper time.  

I declare the truth that I am dead to sin, freed from it, and alive to God in Christ Jesus, since I have died with Christ and have been raised with him. 

I gladly embrace the truth that I am now a child of God who is unconditionally loved and accepted. I reject the lie that I have to perform in order to be accepted, and I reject my fallen and natural identity, which was derived from the world.  

I declare that sin shall no longer be master over me, because I am not under the law but under grace, and that there is no more guilt or condemnation, because I am spiritually alive in Christ Jesus. 

I renounce every unrighteous use of my body, and I commit myself to no longer be conformed to this world but rather to be transformed by the renewing of my mind. I choose to believe the truth and walk in it, regardless of my feelings or circumstances. 

I commit myself to take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ and choose to think about that which is true, honorable, right, pure, and lovely. 

I commit myself to God’s great goal for my life to conform to his image. I know that I will face many trials, but God has given me the victory. I am not a victim but an overcomer in Christ. 

I choose to adopt the attitude of Christ, which means that I will do nothing out of selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind I will regard others as more important than myself. I will not merely look out for my own personal interests but also for the interests of others. I know that it is more blessed to give than to receive.
