REASON NUMBER FIVE ! Confessing God's word works for you and me because it changes your heart (spirit). The Bible say is in (1 Peter 1:23). "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of God, which liveth and abideth forever." A baby is not born all it wants, in the natural it usually takes nine months from its fetal stages. You and I do not become full-grown Christians overnight, even after we accept Jesus as Lord. For some of us it takes a lifetime of being born again. Christianity has been so jacked up: because many think that after you have accepted Jesus as Lord that's it. But the apostle Paul said in (2 Corinthians 3:18). "But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same veil untaken away in the reading of the Old Testament; which veil is done away in Christ. But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their heart (spirit). Nevertheless, when it shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away. Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (freedom). But we all come with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord." Now, (Proverbs 4:20--23), gives good advice on this subject. "My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my saying. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart (spirit). For they are life unto those that find them, and health (medicine) to all their flesh. Keep thy heart (spirit) with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." You and me are the ones to keep or guard, your heart (spirit) with all diligence. For out of it (the spirit or heart) or the issues, or forces of life. According to Mark 4: our heart can get filled with thorns of stones. That's why it is important for the heart (spirit) to be changed or born again. The soil tries as hard to make a stone produce as it does a seed. It furnishes the same nutrients to a stone as it does to a seed. But the stone will not produce, because there is no life in it. The stone takes monster away from the seed. The parable of the sower reveals that seeds that are sown on stony ground doesn't produce. The soil will give as much time, space and monster to a stone as it will to a seed, but there is no life in the stone. The Word of God is the incorruptible seed, it is full of spirit life. So by removing the stones and thorns and sowing the incorruptible seed of God's Word, will change the heart (spirit). Being born again, is a process of one's life: listen at the text; Being born again !
