Merced
Declare the Destiny for Merced County, the County of Rooting
“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.” (Colossians 2:6-7 NKJV)
Merced, while others exalt themselves, you quietly cultivate your heavenly life, rooting yourself deeply in the solid rock of the Lord Christ. You understand that only by closely connecting to Jesus’ life and immersing yourself in His truth can you truly know God, allowing your life to mature from milk to solid food. Merced, while others boast, you, with a heart of gratitude and humility, lay the fruits of your life at Jesus’ feet, giving Him glory and honor. You know that only by being nourished and cleansed daily by God’s Word through the Holy Spirit can the attributes in your life that are not aligned with the kingdom of heaven and the stumbling blocks hindering your love for Jesus be removed. Thus, your life is continually transformed and renewed, growing into the beautiful image of Christ, leading others to marvel at the richness and strength of a life rooted in Him.
I declare it in the powerful name of Jesus!
