Faith is a Link Between God's Might and Ours

What most Christians seem to overlook is the fact that what we say has power. This can be used for both good and evil. Wrong confessions enslave us, but right confessions liberate us! You will be weak if you talk about weakness! You will be sick if you talk about disease! You will be poor if you talk about poverty! Declare your fears, and the sickness of that declaration will spread! If we keep looking for the tumor or growth, we'll find it sooner or later. The easiest method to get old is to talk about it - and you will not be disappointed if you keep talking about it! "Oh, I'm becoming old" or "I'm losing my mind in my old age" are popular phrases. This is something that can begin as early as childhood. "I can't run because of my poor knee," children complain. They usually wounded it years ago, but still use the excuse and admit to a serious injury stemming from a minor one. This is faith in reverse, and it may be just as effective in the wrong way as it is in the right. If false confessions enslave us, true confessions liberate us. Right confessions are admissions that refuse to take into account how you feel, think, or know. Right confessions don't pay attention to the senses' evidence, and they don't pay attention to aches, pains, symptoms, tumors, or growths. They believe that, no matter how loud and insistent their voice is, what God says is truer than what these things proclaim. What you feel and see may be incorrect, but God's Word is always correct! The testimony of your aches and pains isn't as trustworthy as the testimony of God's Word. People spend their lives listening to and proclaiming their senses' testimony. They reject the unmistakable testimony of God's Word. Is it any surprise that so many people are in problems because they prefer to trust what they think, feel, see, and know? This chapter will show you how to conquer a new found independence.
