🗣 We Overcome By the Word of Our testimony 🗣
☆ Introduction
As we approach the end of the age and things in the world go from bad to worse and we approach the great tribulation period, which will immediately precede the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, it is important that we learn to live by faith more and more.
And "faith comes from hearing and hearing by the Word of Christ" (Rom.10:17).
Jesus quoted the Word of God whenever He was tempted by Satan in the wilderness - and thus He overcame each temptation. Jesus had stored the Word of God in His mind from childhood. And from that storehouse, the Holy Spirit reminded Him of the appropriate Word for each temptation.
We too need to store the Word of God in our minds. What we read, we must believe. And what we believe in our heart we must confess with our mouth. (Rom.10:8,9)- because we overcome Satan by "the word of our testimony" (Rev.12:11).
But our confession must always be based on God's specific promises.
Some preachers teach that if we confess anything with our mouth, that thing will happen or we will get what we confess. That is presumption and foolishness. God has promised to fulfil His Word - not what we speak in presumption. So we must find God's promises in His Word first - and confess only those.
It is our faith based on God's Word that overcomes the world (1 John 5:4).
True faith is the leaning of our whole personality upon God in total confidence in His unconditional LOVE, His almighty POWER, and His perfect WISDOM.
So during this coming year, with faith in what God has promised, make the following eight confessions (based on the Word of God) frequently. Say them to yourself and say them to Satan from your heart. And memorize the Scriptures given below, relevant to each confession. And be an overcomer
