FAITH CONFESSIONS

Faith implies calling those things that are not as though they were. It is a very powerful force. It moves the hand of the Almighty God whenever it manifests. The Bible states that Abraham had strong faith. Even when his wife, Sarah, was 90 years old and her womb was literally dead, Abraham believed God’s promise, and Sarah, who was at her menopause phase, bore Isaac at a very old age. That’s faith. It is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. In fact, whatever is not faith is sin. Words are very powerful. They have both creative and destructive abilities. Life is full of troubles, pain, misery, tragedies and scores of challenges. Every human being goes through challenges or afflictions. God did not intend it to be so. However, He has equipped us with a very effective tool to influence our destinies. The human tongue is extremely powerful and capable of molding and directing our lives. You may be going through seemingly insurmountable obstacles such as financial debts, protracted lack, poverty, infertility, fear, joblessness, stagnation, demonic oppression, addiction and so on. You have the ability to change the gear of your life. Speak to the mountains in your life now and watch God’s word beautify your destiny. Consecrate your life to God. Keep his commandments with reverence and believe that with God, all things are possible. Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the lordship of Jesus over every area of your life and you shall be saved. Has your life been stagnant or full of troubles? The Lord will turn again your captivity. Your mouth will be filled with laughter and your tongue with singing. The Lord will do great things for you just like he did for Abraham and Sarah when he gave them Isaac, meaning laughter. God will keep his promises to you. It is your turn to laugh.

MAKE THIS FAITH CONFESSION AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE
(JOEL. 2:25)

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not lack any good thing. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside quiet waters, and he restores my soul. He restores the years that the locust have eaten, the cankerworm, the caterpillar, and the palmerworm. I will eat in plenty and be satisfied. I will never be ashamed. The Lord will open rivers in high places for me, and fountains shall be in the midst of the valleys. He will make every wilderness around me a pool of water, and my dry land he shall convert to springs of water. The Lord will open doors of opportunities for me as he rebukes the devourer for my sake. I will obey the word of God. I’ll honor the Lord with my substance and with my life, for he has promised to restore all I have lost to the enemy. I will not be frustrated, depressed, or disillusioned because the Lord will restore all my losses. My heart shall not be weary. My life will be a fertile ground for the word of God. I receive God’s favor. Problems will not inhabit my life. I will overtake my enemies and recover all my blessings stolen from me. The Lord will convert my losses to blessings because he is my savior and restorer. He is the resurrection and the life. He will give life to every dead or failing area of my life. The Lord will shine his face upon me and will answer me when I call. My restoration and promotion will manifest in tremendous ways. No longer will I drink bitter water. In the name of Jesus, I will overcome debts and failure, doubt and fear. I know that my redeemer lives. He is my advocate, my helper, my guide, and my promoter. His mighty hands are upon my life. My today is blessed and my tomorrow shall be glorious because I am making progress. The fruit of my labor will not be in vain. I receive the inestimable grace of God to excel. The Lord will bring honey out of the carcasses of my losses. My life will never be an embarrassment but a testimony of God’s goodness and mercy. I shall run and not be weary; I shall walk and not faint. Only the purpose of God will prevail in my life. I possess my possessions now. I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me. God is for me, and none can be against me. My deficit will be transformed to credit because the Lord is restoring the years that evil insects have eaten in my life. I am blessed.
