Dear Friend

Few things can disrupt more quickly than strife. It often begins with hurt feelings or a simple disagreement, but if left unchecked, it can steal our peace and rob us of joy. God never intended for His people to live in an atmosphere of contention. Today, make a fresh declaration over your life and your family: “Strife will not rule here!” Ask the Lord to help you respond with wisdom and maintain an atmosphere of peace in your home. As you declare peace, you will find yourself becoming a person who doesn't stir up strife, but carries the presence of God wherever you go.

SCRIPTURE
A hot-tempered person stirs up strife, but the slow to anger calms a dispute. Proverbs 15:18

DECLARATION
Today, we break the power of strife over our home and our family! We decree our home is an environment where strife has no place and no voice.

We rebuke all demonic powers that would create contention, bickering, quarrels, and altercations, in the Name of Jesus. We say that we refuse to be lured into strife-filled conversations and situations.

We declare that anger, contention, touchiness, grouchiness, temper tantrums, and flare-ups are not allowed in our home. We prophesy that we are a family who controls our emotions, words, and attitudes and we submit them to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

We say strife is replaced with patience and self-control. We do not stir up strife with our actions, and we choose to create a home that is strife-free and contention- free. We prophesy that in our family and home the power of strife is broken!
