Confession—Affirming, Testifying, Witnessing

Thinking, believing, and confessing in line with the Word all go together. Now whenever the word “confession” is used, I instinctively think of confessing sin and failure, but that is the negative side of confession. There is also a positive side of confession and the Bible has more to say about that than it does the negative side. Confession, is stating something we believe. It is declaring something we know to be true, and it is proclaiming a truth we have accepted wholeheartedly. Our confession should center around several basic, scriptural truths. Amen

Don’t Take Sides Against the Word

How can a person ever think he can get help from God apart from the Word of God.
There are Full Gospel believers—who think they can get answers from God apart from His Word. God only moves in line with His Word.
The Bible says God has magnified His Word even above His Name (Ps. 138:2)!
How can believers get help from God when they are actually taking sides against the Word?
You may unconsciously be taking sides against the Word through ignorance, for example. But no matter what the reason, if you are taking sides against the Word, you can’t get God to work for you. He only works in line with His Word.
It is astonishing to see the attitude people have toward the Word. We should treat God’s Word with the same reverence that we would treat Jesus if He were here in the natural. I don’t mean we should reverence the paper and ink. Not reverencing a physical book; I mean we should reverence the words in the Book; we should reverence and respect what the Word of God says. Amen

Thinking, Believing, and Confessing

For with the heart man believeth unto righteous-ness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. — Romans 10:10 Notice this verse says, “. . . with the mouth confession is made unto. . . .” Jesus said in Mark 11:23, “. . . whosoever shall SAY . . . and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he SAITH.” You can always tell if a person is believing right by what he says. If his confession is wrong, his believing is wrong. If his believing is wrong, his thinking is wrong. If his thinking is wrong, it’s because his mind has not been renewed with the Word of God. All three of these—thinking, believing, and confessing—go together. God has given us His Word to get our thinking straightened out. We can think in line with God’s Word; we can believe in line with God’s Word, and we can speak in line with God’s Word. Amen

Good Morning,

We just finished Conference this year what a refreshing time, I know that sounds so cheeky but this year really was a great time of renewing and new direction in ministry. I know many of you do receive from CMN but there are those who do not so this time is set aside to reconnect with other ministers to be renewed and strengthened in ways that only other ministers can. Having said that, thank you for allowing us to go and enjoy this time and thank you for your support and prayers. I will bring another message of our Lord Friday.

The Riches of the Earth Are for Us!

I want to share with you what the Lord said to me. He said, “Don’t pray for money anymore.
Don’t pray for money because, you see, you have authority in My Name—the Name of Jesus—on the earth. After all, I put all those riches on the earth for My children.” Do you think God put cattle, silver, and gold here for the devil and his bunch?
We know God loves the sinner, but does He love a sinner more than He loves His own children?
No, of course not! God put the riches of the world here for His people.
God said to Israel, “If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land” (Isa. 1:19).
I know if God wants us to eat the best, He wants us to wear the best.
He also wants us to drive the best, and He wants us to have the best.
Jesus came to the earth to introduce and reveal the Father to us. And Jesus is the One who said, “If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give GOOD THINGS to them that ask him?” (Matt. 7:11).
Amen

Heirs of Abraham’s Blessing

GALATIANS 3:29
And IF YE BE CHRIST’S, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE.

I want you to look at Galatians 3:7.

GALATIANS 3:7
Know ye therefore that THEY WHICH ARE OF FAITH, the same are the CHILDREN OF ABRAHAM.

Thank God, Abraham’s blessing is ours!

Why shouldn’t we be thrilled with the Word of God? When we go to a football game (and I’m not opposed to going to ball games), we get all excited and worked up over someone running down the field with a bag of wind under his arm! And no one says anything against that; it’s considered all right to get excited about that.
When you get thrilled about the Word of God, and you get so thrilled it shows up on the outside, then, someone says about you, “He’s a nut!” But, no, we Christians have got something to be really thrilled about! Abraham’s blessing is ours! That’s something to be thrilled about! Amen

The Blessing of Abraham Is for All

Believers Abraham’s blessing was threefold in nature.
1. It was a material or a financial blessing (Gen. 13:2,15; Deut. 28:4,5,8,11,12).
2. It was a physical blessing (Gen. 13:16; 17:16; Exod. 15:26; 23:25,26).
3. It was a spiritual blessing (Gal. 3:14).
In the New Testament, Third John 2 agrees that God wants us to be prosperous materially, financially, physically and spiritually.
3 JOHN 2
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest PROSPER and be in health, EVEN AS THY SOUL PROSPERETH.

Prosperity was not just for the Jews under the Old Covenant.
3 John 2 was written to believers! The Bible is our final authority.

Redeemed From the Curse of Poverty

Some folks think that it is the will of God for a person to go through life and not ever have anything. We have heard that taught a lot in days gone by.
Sometimes it is easier to believe tradition than to believe the Bible. Many times, instead of actually believing the Bible, we believe what we’ve been taught that the Bible says—not what the Bible actually says.
Some people think poor old Job went through life poverty stricken, sick, and afflicted, but he didn’t. Most Bible scholars believe the events recorded in the entire Book of Job took place in about nine months’ time. When the thieves broke in and stole Job’s things, he was in captivity to Satan. When the fire burned up Job’s crops, he was in captivity to Satan.
God turned Job’s captivity (Job 42:10)!
when God turned Job’s captivity, He gave him twice as much as he had to begin with, so Job had plenty of grain to feed them. So Job’s turkeys weren’t poor, and there is no need for you to be poor either!
