AFFIRM

Hello: You know at any given time people are either operating in the spiritual realm or the natural realm. God tells us to walk in the Spirit so that the flesh will have no dominion over us. The words that are flowing out of us are accurate indications of what has the dominion over us. Out of the abundance of the heart....the mouth speaks...Whatever we are affirming in our heart we are building into our inner man. The affirmation of a doubt is going to build unbelief and the affirmation of the Word of God is going to build Faith. We are constantly affirming something by our words and actions whether or not we even realize we are doing it. We have to decide to deliberately affirm the Word of God in everything that pertains to us. John 15:7 says, “If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” Many people affirm that their faith is in failure, disaster, trouble, sickness and lack by constantly confessing that as their outcome. If we are continually affirming bondage, captivity and lack we will have an abundance of it. Our very expectation will serve to bind us and lock us out of the blessing we are entitled to in Christ Jesus. These are strongholds we assist the enemy in creating within us and he does not hesitate to set up shop and deal torment. But the weapons of are warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds....The bible says the solution is to submit yourselves to God, resist the devil and then he will flee....We submit to God by coming into agreement with God about whatever God says......... I always tell people if you find yourself in a bad harvest field....sow your way out....Just start sowing good seed...Change your confession...We are going to reap whatever we have sown, but just start sowing something different immediately until that starts coming up. It may take awhile to see the new harvest, but it will come! Every sower has to be a little patient. The principle is seed...then time (for the seed to spring up and mature) then a harvest....but in time...if you sow....it will come up!! So start sowing now. You will need a harvest tomorrow. Remember every seed can only produce after it’s own kind. So be careful what you sow. Sow only what you want to harvest. If you are ready to change your confession....Look to the Word and simply say exactly what Jesus says. If you have you been in lack and poverty has been your master and you can’t seem to ever get ahead. If “can’t win for losing” has been your motto....realize that is not the lot for a son or daughter of God....Our confession is this.......The Lord is my Shepherd...I shall not want. We are blessed in the city and in the field...If you have been afraid and fear, anxiety, and worry has ruled you for as long as you can remember, then know that is not our Way in Christ either. Our confession is, “The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” Our affirmations are not based on how we’d like things to be or on positive thinking or on philosophies devised by intellectuals, but on the divinely inspired Word of God and backed up by the full faith and credibility of our Creator. Jesus said heaven and earth shall pass away but my words shall not pass away....Matthew 24:35 Love and Blessings Pastor Randy
