HOW TO TURN YOUR FAITH LOOSE ! If God had only said, "Don't be afraid" and nothing more, I might reply, "I can't help it." But notice he added, "for I am with thee." Can You Really Believe That He is with you and still be afraid ? No ! Can you really believe that He is in you and still be afraid ? No ! If you are afraid, it's because you are doubting Him or doubting what He has said. "Yes," somebody might say, "but you don't understand I am so weak." God said, "I will strengthen thee." Many people precious believers ask people to pray for them that God will give them strength: "yes but you just don't understand. I feel so helpless." God said, "I will help thee." Well, you pray for me that I hold out faithful to the end." God said, "I'll uphold thee." Thank God, we already have gotten our answer ! Many people precious believers do not receive the answer, because they're looking at things that are temporal and are led by their five senses rather than the Word of God. "Fear not, for I am with thee. . ." Our confession can be, "God is with me." "Greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. . ." We can fearlessly say, "God is in me now." Maybe you cannot make these great confessions because you're in some type of sin ! Repent, turn away from it and go the opposite way ! Ask God to forgive you, he is waiting on you ! You may be facing some task that seems impossible. Instead of saying how impossible that task is, look to Him and say, "God is in me now." You will find that your confession of faith will cause Him to work in your behalf. When I said looking Him, you must look to him through his Word because his word is filled with faith. And faith in God only comes by hearing and hearing the word of God (Romans 10: 17). You can face life fearlessly, because you know That Greater Is He that is in you than any force that can be arrayed against you. This should be your continued confession. There is no faith without confession. Confession is faith way of expressing itself. Faith, like love, is of the heart (or spirit). There is no love without word or action. You can't reason love into people, and you can't reason love out of them --- it's of the heart or of the spirit. Faith is of the spirit, and there is no faith without confession. Faith, then, grows with your confession; and your confession brains possession ! The confession of the believer does several things: first, it reveals your position -- spiritually and naturally. Second, it sets the boundaries of your life --- you don't receive be on what you say ! If you say you can't, then you can't. You get nothing. But if you say you can, then you can. The reason the majority of believers are we even though they are earnest is that they have never been to declare what they are in Christ. They measured themselves by themselves ! How do you do this ? First you must realize how God looks at you and not how you look at yourself, and confess it that is how God sees you based upon His Word scriptures about this are found primarily in the epistles written to the believers. Then boldly confess what the word declares you are in Christ. As you do this, your faith will abound. Remember that faith will never develop beyond your confession. Your consistent confession of your relationship to the Father, the work Jesus is doing for you now in heaven, and what the Holy Spirit is accomplishing in and through you will build a solid , positive faith life. You will not be afraid of anyone one or anything. You will not be afraid of Satan or any of his works. You will face life full of faith and with the attitude of a conqueror. But you will never be a conqueror until you confession you are one. If you wait to the economy, world before you believe you are one, you are mistaken. You have two confess it first constantly to become one. Faith confessions create reality.
