Sifting is the best way to prevent flour from lumping. Some recipes call for sifting flour twice, others call for sifting before measuring. Whatever directions are given it is best to follow them to get the best result.

Mix it lightly with a fork or beater. If you're putting it in a batter, however, there really isn't much reason to declump it. If you are just trying to get it out of the package and it's a solid lump, it's gone stale and you shouldn't use it.
