Confession #2 / Scriptures to meditate on
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sorry I didn’t continue immediately with the healing confessions after the first week.
I wasn’t sure whether God was wanting me to go straight through the book or if I should go through based on the things He was emphasizing to me that particular week.
That first week, He lined up the confirmation messages perfectly with our passage. But the second week when I would have sent II Corinthians 1:20, He was emphasizing to me that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). In addition, He was emphasizing the passage that says power went forth from Him to heal all the sick (Luke 6:19). He was tying these together for me again, reminding me that He is in us now – and is still the same today – therefore, power is still going forth from Him INSIDE US to heal our bodies (and others through us) as we receive what He’s making available by faith.
So I wasn’t sure whether to send the next confession from the book, the things He was emphasizing to me, or both for us to focus on.
Then the next week (last week), He was emphasizing the passages that tell us NOTHING is impossible for God and NOTHING is impossible for those who believe Him/His promises ~ EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE FOR THE ONE WHO BELIEVES (Matthew 17:20; 19:26, Mark 9:23; 10:27, Luke 1:37)! I needed an intervention that was impossible in the natural, so He was faithfully surrounding me with these messages on all sides. He was also emphasizing passages stating that we must SUBMIT to Him and RESIST the devil (James 4:7) ~ in other words, emphasizing the necessity of our willingness to FIGHT/engage in warfare/take authority over the enemy in order to enforce the victory that Jesus has won for us.
So again, I wasn’t sure if He was wanting me to go by what I was hearing from Him or to go by what was next in the book ~ or BOTH.
I think to prevent me from being paralyzed in uncertainty and doing NOTHING, I’ll just do BOTH. 😉 Soon after I felt I should do this, Jesse prayed the verse from the next confession in the book ~ our confession for this week. I couldn’t contain the big smile that broke forth during his prayer, believing God was confirming to go ahead and move forward with the confessions from the book in order of appearance too.
So, here is confession #2 from the book:
“Because I am in Christ, God has given me an eternal response of “YES” to EVERY promise He has EVER made, so I do not have to wonder what His will is or what His answer will be. I say “A-men” to His promises ~ my agreement of faith, declaring, ‘So shall they be’ in my life!”
(II Corinthians 1:18-22)
This is the one we will be trying to rehearse and meditate on repeatedly for the next days/week or so. If any of those themes from the past few weeks are resonating with you, you can incorporate and include those in what you meditate on as well. The theme He’s spoken repeatedly this week thus far has been about His INCALCULABLE WEALTH again. He brought up things from the notes He led me to post on FB and gave us two more confirming words right afterward, which I may send in the coming days. If you didn’t get a chance to read those notes, they are here:
Incalculable Wealth ~ Part 1
Incalculable Wealth ~ Part 2
The emphasis is on renewing our minds FULLY to the glorious inheritance that is IN US in Christ, through which He is able to meet ALL our needs, so that we will begin to tap into ALL He’s provided and make the withdrawals into our lives ~ spirit, soul, body, and circumstances.
Blessings and Prayers!
