“So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress.” NASB
“Know and understand this: from the issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince will be seven weeks and 62 weeks. It will be rebuilt with a plaza and a moat, but in difficult times.” HCSB
From the issuing of the decree…from the time of the decree just kept resonating in my heart.
Decree: a formal and authoritative order, especially one having the force of law; a judicial decision or order

It is interesting to note that Chuck Pierce has issued a prayer focus on decreeing over our land and boundaries for the first 10 days of March. Not a coincidence. There are no coincidences in the Spirit. However, what the Lord was impressing upon me as I listened to the teaching was the importance of the decree, the release of the decree and the revelation of what happens when the decree is made.
We are part of a Kingdom that is established by the word that is proceeding from the mouth of the Father. His word and His decree is what established all that exists in the seen and the unseen. Even evil does not exist unless He allows it. The enemy is still here because God has appointed a time for his destruction. The decree of a King establishes what is and what shall be. It not only affects the present but also the future. There are many examples in scripture, but it is interesting that Holy Spirit is instructing us in this at this specific season, namely Purim. Purim is a Jewish celebration of the reversal of the enemy’s decree against the people of God. Purim is celebrated in the month of Adar; this month is all about celebrating the joy of deliverance by the hand of God and the annihilation of your enemy! There are seasons in life when deliverance seems like an impossibility, like that of the Jews and Esther, but Purim reminds us that with God nothing is impossible. The deliverance of the Hebrew people came by the reversal of a decree. In a kairos moment in time, Esther was able to approach the King and receive a decree that superseded the decree of the enemy of the Jews, Haman.
From the issuing of the decree…
Everything changed from the issuing of the decree of Esther’s husband, the King. What the enemy, Haman, thought he had accomplished was reversed, overturned and then made right because of the decree. Deliverance came because of the issuing of the decree!
Know and understand…
From the issuing of the decree….
A kingdom operates from the issuing of the word of a king. Our Lord, the Christ, is King of kings and Lord of lords. He has made US kings and priest to His God and Father. (Rev. 1:6) We can operate in this realm of delegated authority and issue God’s decree that reverses the curse of the enemy!
Now the question is…what are you decreeing in this set time? Scripture states there is a set time for judgment to be released in our favor. (Dan. 7:22) There is a set time for the issuing of the God’s decree…a set time to agree with God! A set time to release the word of the Lord! NOW faith is!
Know and understand…
Decree: a formal and authoritative order, especially one having the force of law; a judicial decision or order; one of the eternal purposes of God, by which events are foreordained. To command, ordain, or decide by decree.

From the issuing of the decree…
Kings and priest of God Most High let's exercise our legal authority in the kingdom and agree with God of All creation and issue His decree. Proclaim His Word, the logos and the rhema, that will bring a reversal of what the enemy has attempted to bring about in our life.
The set time is NOW!
P.S. Here is an example of a decree I wrote and prayed for day three of the 10 day prayer focus with Glory of Zion.
Day Three: Ezra 9, Psalm 81: I decree revival in my family and over my inheritance in Jesus name. Father let your Spirit be poured out upon all flesh in my family. Thank you for restoration and for change, for the suddenly and for an open heaven over my life, my family, my inheritance and my ministry. Thank you Father that the spirit of revival will flow from generation to generation in Jesus name. The River is flowing and bursting its banks. As I open my mouth wide Father you have promised to fill it. As I speak as the oracle of God, Holy Spirit you confirm the word with signs and wonders following. I thank you Jesus for all that you are doing and all that you will do not only today but tomorrow and in the days to come. Thank you for the newness, the new thing springing forth in my family in Jesus name. Thank you Father for giving us a measure of revival even in the midst of our bondage, but I ask you for the abundance of rain upon your people your remnant oh God. May your people experience the fullness of your Spirit and the supernatural workings of your Kingdom in Jesus name.
