That the communication
of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good
thing which is in you in Christ Jesus (Philemon 1:6)
Are you still facing those dreadful
challenges and sins?
We have considered and arrived at the
conclusion that- in Christ, our forgiveness is certain the moment we confess
our sins. We also understand that our nature as born again children of God is
the nature of God for we are the righteousness of God in Christ.
Now we move to the acknowledgment of the
good things deposited in us in Christ which is also known as confession(s). One
needs to learn to acknowledge these truths, speak them loudly and openly as we
pace the floor reminding our inner ears and hearts that irrespective of the
evident, the words of God which we speak represent our true selves in Christ.
See some of my confessions below:
And though the Lord gives you the bread
of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your Teacher will not hide
Himself any more, but your eyes will constantly behold your Teacher. And your
ears will hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it, when
you turn to the right hand and when you turn to the left' (Isaiah 30:20 – The
Amplified Translation)
I am taught how to live right and well. I
am shown what to do and where to go (Isaiah 48:17b – The Message Translation)
As we study scriptures daily, the words
God speak to our hearts should be documented somewhere and recited daily to our
inner ears and hearts. By continuing in this, we are able to birth and give
evidence to these words.
Even David did same with Laban’s flocks, by placing
the streaked sticks before the lambs as they came to drink by the well which
was also where they had intercourse (communion). Going forward, everything
those sheep birthed looked like what had been placed before them – Lambs with
streaks.
You will only produce according to that which has been placed before your inner
ears and hearts... what are you placing before them today?
