What is an affirmation?

An affirmation is stating something as a fact, often publicly or strongly. As a result, we are declaring something as truth. An affirmation is a usually a positive statement intended to improve one’s thoughts or feelings about themself. The intention is to create a more positive mindset. Additionally, when we think more positive thoughts, it naturally lends to more positive feelings. Thoughts always influence feelings. Affirmations are a popular way to improve mental health, self esteem and personal development. In the secular world, these affirmations are often based on your own subjective truth. This is the foundational difference between simply making positive statements and daily Christian affirmations.

Can you use daily affirmations as a Christian?

Yes! In fact, let’s take the definition of affirmation from above and apply it to spiritual affirmations. Remember, an affirmation is a statement that you declare as a fact. Consequently, a biblical affirmation is taking God’s Truth and stating that as a fact. See the difference between simply stating positive phrases and using God’s Word as the Truth you are declaring? Making affirmations based on Scripture on a daily basis is a great way to create a consistent habit of meditating and believing God’s Word.

Why are daily Christian affirmations a powerful tool?

Lies of the enemy easily make their way into our heart. We will encounter difficult times and difficult people in our lives. Am I right?! The enemy will use those moments or people to instill doubt about who God is, who we are and about the world around us. Lies are so subtle and usually scream louder than the truth. For example, maybe someone in your life put you down and now you believe you are insignificant or not enough. That is a lie that doesn’t align with God’s Word. Daily Christian affirmations are a way tear down those kind of lies and cling to Biblical truth. The moment we veer away from the truth of God, our thoughts and feelings get off course. Taking thoughts captive is so vital.

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:5

When should I practice Daily affirmations?

All. the. time. Creating a daily routine of stating Christian affirmations is another way of saying Christian meditation. I often use Scripture cards when God exposes a particular area in my life that I need to tear down lies and lean into His Truth rather than my own. Grab some 3×5 notecards and write down powerful affirmations drawn from the Bible. Sometimes we are tempted to base our beliefs on what we see and feel (Proverbs 3:5), however God calls us to choose to trust Him and His Word rather than what we experience with our 5 senses. The only way to accomplish this is through prayerful dependence on God. Don’t try to do this in your own strength. Ask Him to help you believe the unbelievable power of God! It’s only by His grace that we have the faith we need to believe His Word.

You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. Isaiah 26:3
