Words
That Strengthen You from the Inside Out
Sometimes it is not that we have lost
our faith—it is that our faith feels faint. The Word is still true. God
is still good. But we are tired. We are stretched. And we need to be reminded
of who we are in Christ and what we carry through Him.
That is where affirmations come in—not
as empty self-help phrases, but as truth-backed declarations that
re-center your soul and strengthen your spirit.
If you are walking through a Holy
Grit season—where faith is real, but the pressure is too—these 21
affirmations are for you.
Why
Use Affirmations?
Affirmations are not magic. But they
are a powerful tool of agreement—when you speak what God has said about
you, you align your heart with heaven.
- You replace fear with faith.
- You counter lies with truth.
- You remind your soul: “This is what we believe,
even when we do not feel it.”
“Let the redeemed of the Lord say so…” — Psalm 107:2
Let us speak life, speak truth, and
build strength.
How to Use These
- Say them aloud each morning or before bed.
- Journal your reflections on each one.
- Use them in prayer, inserting them into your
conversations with God.
- Pair them with Scriptures from the 12 Months of
Holy Grit plan.
