How to Remind God of His Promises

Lorraine Marie Varela

Promises made, promises kept—God is faithful to His Word! Reminding God of His promises through our spoken decrees is a privilege and a birthright.

Patricia King is one of these faith-filled people that has inspired me over the past 10 years and continues to challenge and grow my faith continues to challenge and grow my faith by her obedience to God and childlike trust in Him.


In this video, I share insights from Patricia's book, “The Power of the Decree,” as she teaches us how to remind God of His promises through the power of the decree. When our voices speak out God’s written Word, these decrees contain His power to transform our lives.



This video contains three tips I gleaned while reading Patricia’s book, and I add a bonus tip of my own! You’ll learn the difference between making a confession, a proclamation, and a decree. You’ll hear supernatural testimonies of decrees in action and come away with a game plan on how to activate God’s promises in your life through your spoken decrees.


Get ready to declare God’s Word for supernatural breakthrough in your life!

Like the communities of Philadephia and Thyatira, the ruins of Smyrna are centered in the middle of a busy modern city. Now called Izmir, it's the third most populous city in Turkey. Located on the coast of the Aegean Sea, Smyrna was a major trade route and a wealthy port city in the first century, home to nearly 100,000 residents. It's a vibrant port city still.
