Where did this come from?
Sometimes when Holy Spirit illuminates patterns in my own life and then I see it everywhere I turn in our world and culture I know there is something He wants me to release. In preparing me for this writing I think it was the movie I Can Only Imagine and the conversations with a variety of people in and out of the healing and deliverance rooms that came before and after that which helped me to pinpoint some of the characteristics I decidedly did not want to partner with or carry forward into the next season of my life.
You don't have to have been victimized by sexual abuse or domestic violence in order to walk in agreement with a victim spirit. It can land on any number of circumstances including seasons of intense spiritual warfare, financial loss, betrayal, health loss or even a sense of being born into the "wrong" family or "put" into the "wrong" circumstances.
The common denominator is negative circumstances that feel out of your control at some point in your life... creating a soul wound which creates a soul tie to the wound to form a new identity and belief system... a stronghold where the enemy or victim spirit takes up residence. If you have walked through a lot of victimizing circumstances I invite you to find a godly deliverance minister who knows how to walk in their authority, to walk with you through deliverance. I declare peace over you as you yield to Holy Spirit and we give Him full control over this session. We ask Father God that any fractured parts or portions of ourselves that have been removed imprisoned, held captive, become stuck or captured in any other space, time, place or dimension as a result of being victimized or traumatized be loosed and restored from wherever it has been and restored back to it's Heavenly blueprint, fully cleansed by the blood of the Lamb, to its proper time space and dimension at the appropriate level for their age and in the safest possible way. We decree full recovery and a knitting together of all parts by the Spirit of God. Merge now in Jesus Name!

Canceling the lies
Here are some lies planted by a victim spirit/mindset which we choose to come out of agreement with. Feel free to declare it your own way but for ease I will write it out....
I come out of agreement with the soul tie to the following wounds that made me feel victimized..........( list them out before the Lord,) I break all agreements with them and their claim over my identity. I break their power over my thought life and choose a new identity, Powerful, Strong and Free in Christ. I declare things from that past season are covered in the blood of Jesus, forgiven and cleansed. I loose myself from any offense carried over from a previous season and I will not partner with any keeping tally of the wounds against me by any demonic spirit or person. My focus is on Christ and who He is in me, victorious, more than a conqueror, and mighty for the pulling down of strongholds.
I come out of agreement with the lies that: my needs aren't as significant or important as the needs of others... or that I should withdraw, be quiet and pull away.
I refuse self pity and resentment. I bind them, break their power over me and command them to go now in the name of Jesus. I will partner with you no longer. I break the power of a spirit of timidity over my life. I refuse to cower and be intimidated by fear and I bind every spirit of fear in the name of Jesus. I break your power over me and command that you loose me now from your grasp in Jesus name. I invite the healing presence of the Love of God and the comfort of the Holy Spirit to wash over me now releasing me from all fear, torment, terror, destruction, angst, and panic.
I renounce the lie that others who are more dominant or more eloquent than me get what they want or need, but ( poor me) I am neither.
I renounce the lie that I am powerless to bring about change.
I break agreement with the spirit that tells me I need to work hard to make sure no one makes a fuss and to make sure others get what they want... even at the cost of having no boundaries for myself and personal suffering. I renounce a false martyr spirit. I bind it and break it's power over me. I command it to leave now at the name of Jesus.
I break agreement with the lie that says my pain can and should be stuffed because it's safer that way. I choose to come to Jesus with this pain, my questions and concerns. I release it to Him and receive a new mindset in His presence.
I break any unhealthy views of submission or authority and ask that God would restore to me a healthy understanding of His original intent and design.... one with Christ, a co-heir, reigning with Him.
I renounce the lie that having the attention on healing my pain or working on my needs would ruffle too many feathers and it's best to play it safe and ignore my needs.
I break agreement with this lie, and I choose vulnerability to safe people who I can trust to walk with me in my healing/ overcoming journey.
I release myself from the need to get my security from being needed by others. I break agreement with resentment that comes from desperate people needing me and encouraging me to have unhealthy boundaries. Resentment go now! I declare that my security and value is in my relationship to Christ and because of what He has done, not by how much others appear to need me or the skills God has given me.
I renounce the lie that not being desperately needed would be frightening...
I renounce the lie that I can't say no or have Godly boundaries over my time, energy, body, emotions, health or family or space. I bind and break the power of a spirit of permissiveness and command it to go now!
I recognize I have a choice when to give out of love, not to meet the unhealthy expectations of others. I choose to believe that my dreams and goals are valuable and important to me and to God so I am free to invest in myself also.
I break the lie that I cannot be vulnerable or it will create change and that change is bad.I refuse to stay stuck! I refuse to partner with shame. I bind it and break it's power over me and command it to loose me now!
I break the lies of a false protective spirit or any spirit of pride .... and command them to leave me now. I ask that Holy Spirit would unmask and uncover any self-defeating lies which have kept me bound and give me grace to repent, turn / change my mind to HIS mind... the mind of Christ.

Truth
If you would love to lock this truth into your subconscious memory in a powerful way, the essential oil GINGER inhaled as you read these affirmations is a great way to allow these truths to impact your brain in a physical way.
( for more on this see the book Emotional Healing with Essential Oils by Daniel Macdonald.)
Here's the TRUTH.....
My needs are seen and valued by my heavenly Father. I can clearly speak about my needs.
I will share my dreams in a healthy, hopeful way!
I can speak up and make a difference.
I designed by God to be powerful and a game-changer.
I am not afraid of the disapproval of others.....Truth and freedom are more precious...I'm free to please God and not man.
I do not stuff pain.. but I will take it to the Lord, and to trusted friends choosing healing.
This is a weapon of mass destruction to the enemy. My vulnerability is valuable.
I can take time to heal and meet my needs so I am able to love well.
I am secure in Christ. My value and significance is in HIm...
It is good for me to have healthy boundaries for my life and ministry, then I am free to pour myself out in the areas of my anointing and God-given passion. I invite Holy Spirit to give me revelation on how to walk those out with Godly wisdom.
Although I am aware my boundaries will impact others, it is not selfish to have Godly boundaries because it helps me to be highly effective in my life and ministry as I serve the Lord.
I can say no to the expectations of others without fear.
True friends will value my intentionality.... I'm directive and led by the Holy Spirit.
I can make choices for positive change. I am full of hope, gratitude and have helpful ideas.
Change, movement and advancement bring hope and fulfillment. I'm never stuck...... I can make a different choice and there is always Jesus the WAY the TRUTH and the LIFE.
As a free person, I have learned that it is not only OK but also essential to occasionally make choices that may make others unhappy with me.
This is not a lack of love, it is a powerful choice to direct my love and energy productively.
I can create and dream plans that bring life, excitement and personal growth to others.
I can serve those around me because I deeply love them and want to see them succeed, but I will make sure ( take responsibility ) that I am healthy ( body soul and spirit), taken care of and loving myself well.

Awaken Awaken Soul
To soar above it all
Fear is overrated
Doubt it has to go
Every shackle shaken off
Come arise my soul
Sorrow cannot hold you
Hope is soaring through
Christ, my Joy arise within me
Hope abound, Let healing flow
Tears turn golden into triumph!
Trials into testimony
What were wounds are now authority
Power flows within me
The cross has won it all
Releasing kingdom Glory
Resurrected from the fall
Your presence conquers all
Christ around me
Christ within
Nothing is impossible!
