RIGHT CONFESSION -- DOOR TO THE SUPERNATURAL !

RIGHT CONFESSION -- DOOR TO THE SUPERNATURAL ! Your confession is your possession; your confession of fear gives fear dominion over you, and your fears become stronger. You come more and more under the bondage of the enemy. But if you will boldly confess your Father's care, confess His protection, confess God's Word, you will rise above satanic influence every time. You see, when you confess your doubts, fears, weaknesses, and disease, you are openly confessing that God's Word is not true. Yet the Bible declares that with Christ stripes you were healed (1 Peter 2:24). If you confess that you still have your disease instead of confessing that He has borne them, you will have them ! It is possible because people have the image of their sickness or their disease printed on the tables of their mind, instead of having the word of God printed on their minds. They are still conformed to this world ! But when you start confessing that He has done something about them -- that He has taken them away -- then your healing will manifest. Too often we accept the testimony of our physical senses rather than accepting the testimony of God's Word. What does God's Word say ? You can ask that question on any subject. What does God's word say about sickness ? In (Matthew 8: 17) it says, "Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses." Your will and your faith have a great deal to do with your being healed. If you don't believe or you believe in what you can see or feel more than you believe the Word, you don't want to be, God doesn't force healing on you. You have a part in your healing God will not override your will. Let's look at it from the natural standpoint. Doctors can't help a person without his or her cooperation. The doctor could write out a prescription, but if the patient refused to take the medication, it won't help. If a natural position can help you without your cooperation, how can the heavenly physician help you ? God has certain laws by which He works, and even those to whom He feels a healing ministry doesn't force healing on anyone. The person from whom they are praying must cooperate. Some have thought that if somebody prayed the prayer of faith for them, they would be healed, whether they believe are not. If you would receive healing like this by someone else's faith, it would not be permanent. I've seen people temporarily healed like this, but for any permanent help, you must act in faith yourself. You must practice God's Word for it to work. That's what being a doer of the Word means ! As long as you hold onto a confession of weakness, sickness, and pain, you will still have these problems. You may search for some man of God to pray the prayer of faith for you, but it will be of no avail, because your unbelief will destroy the effects of his or her faith. It is true, however, that baby believer can be carried for a while on another's faith. But the time will come when they are on their own. That's why some receive their healing only to lose it later. In many cases they were healed in the presence of mass faith --- in a large meeting, for example --- but when they got out on their own, Satan took advantage of their unbelief and their sickness returned. Many people do not have any faith because they talk themselves out of it when they pray. How ? They bring up every sin or mistake they can think of, and when they get through, they don't have any faith at all because they are holding themselves under condemnation and are making the wrong confession the believer who is always talking about his or her sin and failure will be continually conscience of them . But the Bible says that if we sin and confess it to God, He forgives us and cleanses us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). Why should we continually remind ourselves and others of sins and failures that God has already forgiven and forgotten ? After you've confess it to God, it is as though you had never sinned. If God doesn't have any memory of it, why should you ? And it's not in good taste to remind Him, because He already has told you that He doesn't remember that you did anything wrong. What should you confess ? Confess what God said regarding your mistake. Confess that He has forgiven you, cleanse you --- and forgotten it. Confess, "Thank God, I'm forgetting it come too. I stand in His presence as if I had never done wrong. If the devil tries to bring this sin before you, say, Yes, I did that and I was wrong, but (1 John 1:9) says, if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. He has forgiven me, and I'm thanking Him for it. At first you may not feel a thing, but practice it anyway. It may be a bit difficult because you have been going in the wrong direction for so long, but eventually you will feel all right. That is making the right confession. That is believing the right thing. That is the things the right thing. No matter how long someone prays for you, as long as you act against the Word, the Word can't work for you; but when you act in line with it, it will work for you !
