YOUR CONFESSIONS RULE YOUR LIFE: Daily Devotional

YOUR CONFESSIONS RULE YOUR LIFE: Daily Devotional

 I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely and in Him I [confidently] trust! (Psalm 91:2 AMPC).

Often we think of certain things that happened to some very "good" people and say, "If this could happen to such and such, what about me? That guy was better than me! Well, it has nothing to do with who is better than who. It has to do with your personal walk with the Lord and your faith in His Word. It has to do with your creeds.


Bad things can happen to good people.

Recall the anointed words of the psalmist that we read in our first passage of scripture. It was David's confession and it has to be your confession too. From time to time you say, “The Lord is my refuge and my stronghold; He is my God; In Him I lean and trust, and in Him I trust with confidence!"


Learn the power and value of thinking well and speaking well. If you think wrong, it will be reflected in your words. And if your words are wrong, things will go wrong in your life. Your confessions rule your life. The Bible says, "You are caught by the words of your mouth, you are caught by the words of your mouth" (Proverbs 6:2).

No wonder Psalm 39:1 warns that you guard what you say and speak only what is right: “...I will watch my ways, so as not to sin with my tongue: I will guard my mouth with a bridle....

” James 3:2 says: “For in many things we offend everyone. If one does not sin with words, he is a perfect man and can also bridle the whole body.”


Proverbs 15:4 says, “A healthy tongue is a tree of life...”; A sound tongue is one that speaks according to Christ's terms in His gospel. Do you want to live the amazing and transcendent life of ever-increasing glory that God has ordained for you? The key is your confession: "Whoever wants to love life and see good days, must keep his tongue from evil, and his lips speak no deceit" (1 Peter 3:10).


Keeping your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit means you speak only according to the Word of God.

What is the favor of God, and how can I get it? - Bible Teachings

  The concept of the favor of God is found throughout the Bible, and it generally refers to God's kindness, grace, and blessings bestowed upon individuals. Here are some key teachings on the favor of God and how to attain it: 1. Seek God's Will: Proverbs 3:5-6 advises us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and not rely on our understanding. When we seek and align ourselves with God's will, we are more likely to receive His favor. 2. Humility: The Bible often emphasizes the importance of humility. In James 4:6, it is said that God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. Humility opens the way for God's favor in our lives. 3. Faith: Hebrews 11:6 teaches that without faith, it's impossible to please God. Trusting in God's promises and having faith in His goodness can attract His favor. 4. Obedience: God's favor is often linked to obedience to His commandments. Deuteronomy 28:1-2 states that if we diligently obey the voice of the Lord, H

His Plans Are Good - Daily Devotional

  Verse: Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Devotional: Today, let us take comfort in the assurance that our heavenly Father has plans for us, plans that are filled with goodness and hope. It's easy to become anxious or uncertain about the future, but God's Word reminds us that His intentions for our lives are nothing short of remarkable. In Jeremiah 29:11, we discover a promise that speaks directly to our hearts. God is not a distant observer of our lives; He is intimately involved, and His plans for us are purposeful. Even when circumstances appear challenging, we can trust that God's intentions are for our ultimate well-being. In times of uncertainty, we often question what the future holds. However, God invites us to place our trust in Him, the One who knows the end from the beginning. As we do so, we can find peace in the know

Walking By Faith - Daily Devotional

Verse: "For we walk by faith, not by sight." - 2 Corinthians 5:7 (ESV) Devotional: As Christians, our journey is one of faith. We are called to walk by faith, not by what we see or understand with our natural senses. This can be both a challenging and a rewarding path. Walking by faith means trusting in God's promises even when circumstances seem uncertain or difficult. It means believing that God's plan is greater than our understanding. Imagine walking in a dense fog, unable to see more than a few steps ahead. In life, we often face situations where we can't see the road ahead clearly. It's during these moments that our faith is put to the test. But just as a person walking in the fog relies on each step they take, we can rely on God with every step we take in our faith journey. The Bible tells us that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1). It's like having a confident assurance in God's promises e
