Confession of Faith - March 8, 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 2.3.08 - #68

March 8, 2004

I determine not to worry about the angry man or the wrathful man. My gift will secretly pacify their anger and their wrath. I will sow the seeds of the gospel everywhere the gift leads me. The signs that shall follow me shall be a testimony of the power of the gift leading me. I shall not fear. I shall rise up and follow my gift. The Lord will be with me everywhere I go to work with me and to confirm the word with signs following. All of the authority and power of the government of God is on my side. The power with me is greater than that of an army, a navy, or any military force. I am endowed with more than enough power. God's church is a great representative with full power to command everything that he has said unto it. I purpose not to negotiate from a foundation of compromise. There is no need for compromise, for I have all power. Jesus is the power of my life. He is the wisdom of my life. He is the righteousness of my life. Power, wisdom, and righteousness are on display in me as I spread the news that souls have been ransomed from death. Satan had the power of death, but God took away his key. He introduced sin, which is the cause of death. God has the key of death. I purpose to go and free people from the torture of death and desolation. Jesus has given me the key. I am now a power of attorney with authority given by him to act on his behalf. I do not doubt the ability that is in me by the grace of God. He is in me doing the work. He is able to do exceeding, abundantly, above all that I ask or think, according to the power that works in me. I determine to go and allow the gift to be presented to the people. My faith is growing exceedingly, and charity is abounding in me. I will go.

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.
