God does not want His people to be ashamed. In the name of Jesus, you shall not be ashamed. To be ashamed means to be disgraced, defeated, humiliated, frustrated and embarrassed. It also means to be ridiculed, to come short of glory and honor.

It also means to be stigmatized to be an outcast. Jepthah in Judges 11, was driven away by his family all because his mother was an harlot. His brothers made up their mind that he will not partake in their father’s blessings. They drove him out in shame but at the end he was ashamed.

The same people who drove him away soon came to look for him to be their leader. I declare over your life that that situation that is staring at you to bring shame into your life will not prevail. God that turned the tide in Jepthah’s favour will do likewise for you and you will not be ashamed. When shame is on you there is no honor and favour.

You meet with closed doors. There is fear, insecurity, emptiness, barrenness, poverty and sadness. The enemy devastates, steals, kills and destroys. But God has spoken in Joel 2:27, “… and my people shall never be ashamed”. Claim it for yourself. Declare it against the enemy.

God’s word cannot return back to Him void. Just make sure that you are right with God. Whatever you have lost will be restored back to you. Your in laws may have taken or seized what your husband left as a result of his death.

Don’t worry about it. Someone may have duped you and now your finances are in a mess. Rejoice. Whatever the enemy want to use to bring shame to you, God will use to bring favour and honor to you in Jesus name, Amen.

Isaiah 50 : 7, says “For the Lord God will help me … and I know that i shall not be ashamed”. In that hopeless and awkward situation God will give you victory and you will not be ashamed. Remember the story of the woman caught in adultery. Her case was really shameful. The people wanted to stone her to death according to the law. But an encounter with the Lord Jesus changed it completely. All her accusers disappeared and honour was restored back to her. I decree over you that all your accusers will be put to shame. You will be honoured and celebrated again.

When God help a man there is no room for shame. In Luke 5, Peter went out to his business and returned empty. He met with Jesus who instructed him on what to do. He obeyed and experienced what he has never encountered in his life.

His business took a different dimension. What was meant to cause him shame was reversed to yield increase. I decree supernatural increase upon the works of your hands. Your business shall not the barren. There shall be overflow beyond your wildest dreams in Jesus name, Amen.

Fear not, for thou shall not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more (Isa. 54:4). Know that God’s word is forever settled. God has promised that for every shame you will receive double honour ( Isa. 61:7). I say to you that the Lord will judge all that afflict you and remove all your burdens.

He will give you a name and praise in every place you have seen shame. He will give you a name and praise among all people. I decree over your life, your family, our great nation Nigeria and President Goodluck Jonathan, no more shame forever.

Have you given your life to Jesus? If not, please pray this prayer. Father, I come to you as I am. I invite Jesus into my life to be my personal Lord and Saviour. Wash me cleanse with the blood of Jesus and empower me with the power of your Holy Spirit. Thank you Father for saving my soul and making me your child.
