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.

Happiness - Daily Devotional

  Bible Verse: "This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it." - Psalm 118:24 Happiness is something that we all desire and seek in our lives. It is a feeling of contentment, joy, and satisfaction. As Christians, we know that our ultimate source of happiness is God. However, sometimes in our daily lives, we can get caught up in the challenges and struggles we face, and we forget to be happy and grateful for what we have. The Bible verse above reminds us that every day is a gift from God, and we should rejoice and be glad in it. No matter what we may face in our daily lives, we can always find something to be grateful for and something to be happy about. It could be something as small as a beautiful sunrise, a kind word from a friend, or a moment of peace in our hearts. As Christians, we have the assurance that no matter what we face, God is with us, and He will never leave us or forsake us. This should bring us great joy and happiness, even in the mids...

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...

Make Time for God: Daily Devotional

  “Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation. Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.” Psalms 5:1-3 (KJV) Making enough time each day to meet with God is sure to lead to your breakthrough. There was something King David did that help him to enjoying victory from time to time. It was about the quality of time spent with God. He spent time in fellowship with God in the mornings, meditating on God's Word. There were times when he prayed three times a day (Psalm 55:17). My beloved, do not rush to work or any activity in the morning without first praying. A Christian's prayer life is his lifeline; The moment you stop praying, you begin to die (Luke 18:1). You cannot succeed by your own grace or power; Therefore, make time to pray and meditate on the Word of God, and God will cause you to walk in victory and en...
