Unlearn Wrong Confession
Memory verse: - Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. (Proverb 18:21)
Bible Reading: - Numbers 13 and 14
Message
This world was created by the spoken words of God that let this or that be and it was established; it was so. You and I were also created by the word that “let us create man in our own image” and it was done. If the word in God’s mouth was so powerful, so are the words of men created by God and now recreated, reborn or renewed by Christ from the bondage of sin.
If you are born again, you ought to unlearn wrong confessions and begin to confess what God says about every challenge that comes your way. It is not a sin or a lie for the weak to say I am strong and for the sick to say I am well; I am whole; and for the needy to say I am blessed for he has given us all that pertain to life and to godliness through the knowledge of him that had called us to glory and to virtue.
In Mark chapter eleven verse twenty-three (Mark 11;23) Jesus said you will have whatsoever you saith. If you say you are sick, weak and fragile; you will have it and if you say I am well, strong hale and hearty even in the face of sickness, you shall be healed, you shall be made whole; you will have that which you confessed.
In our text today, Caleb and Joshua reaped life and long life for that matter for they wholly followed the Lord in confessing what God had said that they were well able to possess the land even in the face of giants and men of great stature. On the other hand, the other ten spies died in the wilderness for they said they were not able and they reaped exactly what they confessed.
Paul said for I believe God that there shall be performance of that which was told me and it came to pass because he maintained that confession and did act in unbelieve even in the face of stormy sea.
Wrong confession cancels prayers offered for you; it makes your prayers unanswered by God and cancels your faith in God. If Bible says “himself took my infirmities and bare my sickness” then in the face of sickness I can confess I am whole, I am well, I am healed by his stripes and that because he had borne my sicknesses, I bear them no more. Behold Abraham, the father of faith who hope against hope and did not stagger in faith through unbelief, he was fully persuaded that God was able to make good all his promises and eventually he had Isaac, the promised child.
Henceforth, unlearn your wrong confessions and begin to confess the word of God that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me and so on. Remember, there are promises of God concerning whatever challenges or problems you may encounter in this world of sin. Study the scriptures, know them, internalize them and confess them and you will be glad you did.
Confession of the Day
I can do all things through our Lord Jesus Christ who loves me and gave himself as ransom for all my sins. I am the redeemed of Lord, I am saved, I am delivered and shall be preserved even unto his heavenly kingdom.
Prayer Points

Lord, set a watch over my lips, keep the door of my mouth and bridle my tongue to a positive confession henceforth. Help me to be like thee Oh Lord my saviour; perform thy surgical operation on my heart and write the word upon the tables of my heart.

STERLING LEADERSHIP

Image
D.C.L.M. DAILY   MANNA WEDNESDAY 9TH MAY, 2018 STERLING LEADERSHIP TEXT: GENESIS 47:13-31 KEY VERSE: “And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we shall be Pharaoh’s servants” (GENESIS 47:25). “No one needs aspire to leadership in the work of God who is not willing to pay the price greater than his/her contemporaries and colleagues are willing to pay. The more effective the leader is, the higher the price to be paid”, said J Oswald. Joseph stands out as an enduring proof of what the grace of God can do for a perfect, upright and diligent child of God. The expected season of the lean kine finally came. Pharaoh was prepared only because of Joseph’s astuteness in the management of the trust conferred upon him. He started to alleviate the suffering of masses by exchanging corn for money, then corn for land. In an uncanny display of shrewdness, he ultimately transferred the national wealth and citizens to the crown and saved ...

WELL OF LIFE

March 3 WELL OF LIFE The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life . . . . — PROVERBS 10:11 Immediately after the birth of our son and daughter, I took those little ones into my hands and said, “Lord, I thank You for this child. Because I know the Bible, I realize it is my responsibility to train up this child in the way it should go, and when it is old, it will not depart from it. “I realize Your Word says to bring our children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and I’m going to do that. I know that children are taught in two ways: By precept and by example. So I’m going to live right in front of this child. I will set the right example. Then, too, I know that you can have what you say, so I say over this child that it will grow up strong physically, without sickness and without disease; it will be alert mentally; and stalwart spiritually.” Our children grew up without sickness and disease. I never prayed a prayer that they would be saved. I never prayed a prayer that they...

PARALYZED

April 15 PARALYZED Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil. — HEBREWS 2:14 . . . That He might paralyse him that held the dominion of death, That is the Adversary. — HEBREWS 2:14 (Rotherham) Jesus put to naught the hosts of darkness! He paralyzed their deathdealing power! And when Jesus met John the Revelator on the Isle of Patmos, Jesus said, “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Rev. 1:18). Keys represent authority. Jesus conquered Satan and stripped him of his authority. Jesus was the Master of all hell! But Jesus did not conquer Satan for Himself. He conquered him for us. It was as though you and I personally had met Satan and had conquered him, stripped him of his authority, and stood as master over him. Confession: Jesus is my Head. Jesus i...
