CONFESSION IN PUBLIC !

CONFESSION IN PUBLIC : (Matthew 10:32--33) "Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny before men, him will I also deny before my father which is in heaven." In (Luke 12:8) it is written, "also I say unto you, whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God; but he that deny me before men shall be denied before the angels of God." Many dear believers or Christians zooming in on the phrase "deny me before men" and assuming that Jesus is talking about His Name, However look a little deeper ! He is referring to the Word of God, because in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God (John 1:1) the Scriptures further indicate, "Bless the Lord, you his angel, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, harkening unto the voice of his word." The angels are listening to the words of your mouth, you and I should be saying what God has said ! In other words you are supposed to be giving voice to the word of God; so that the angels can do his commandments in your life. Notice in these verses Jesus states our confession must be public. Public confession is really a break with the world. It defines our position. It shows our change of Lordship. The confession of the Lordship of Jesus puts us immediately under His as well as his angels supervision, care, and protection. Many precious believers disassociate the Word of God from Jesus: yes there is power in the name of Jesus, but the Word of God has been highly exalted above that name: (Psalms 138:2) "I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth; for thou hast magnified thy word above all all thy name." Before this, Satan was our lord, but now Jesus is our Lord. Not only do we confess this to ourselves and to the world, but we confess it to the devil. In this way we overcome his hold on us and have victory through Jesus. Many people still wants to hold onto the world and say that they are serving God to you cannot sit at the table of the Lord and at the table of the devil to. However, God the Father God the Son and the Holy Spirit will not come against your will. Many of you are struggling and suffering and don't know why sick in your body and in your mind because of you have deceived yourself in thinking that God understand that it's all right to do a little this and do a little of that and I repent later. If your life was required today where would you stand in the hall of judgment ? Jesus said, it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a man; but that which comes out of the mouth because from the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks." (Matthew 15:10--13) THE DIAGNOSIS OF THE HEART OF MAN: And he (Jesus) called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand: not that which goeth into the mouth defiles the man, but that which cometh out of the mouth, this is the files of man. Then came his disciples, and said unto him, knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying ? But he (Jesus) answered and said, every plant, which my heavenly Father had not planted, shall be rooted up. Let them alone; they are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch"
