Confession of Faith - March 20, 2004

SCRIPTURAL VERIFICATION

The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

(Romans 10:8-10)

CONFESSION

Series 2.3.20 - #80

March 20, 2004

The Lord has not hid himself from my supplication. He has been attentive to my voice; therefore, I purpose not to be pained within myself. The enemy is at war against me. If I open myself up to these assumptions that God is not listening to me, then he will bring the terrors of death upon me. God has come to dispel this notion quickly. Many become overwhelmed by the storms and tempest in their lives because of this kind of thinking. The weapons of my warfare are not carnal. They are mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and bringing into captivity every thought to his obedience. Instead of being ready to believe the lies of the devil spoken in my ears, I am determined to have in a readiness to revenge all disobedience when my obedience is fulfilled. I have been allowing the words that have been given to me to slip from my heart. I have received an abundance of prophecies. I purpose not to allow these things that I have heard to slip. I give a more earnest heed to all these things that are spoken in my ears, for this is the Rhema of God. I cannot escape if I neglect these things.

Hebrews 10:22 - 23

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

Ephesians 2:8-9

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
