God’s Ability and Your Confession
49 I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
God’s nature of love is displacing the unpleasant traits of the old nature.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Whatever happens in life (I always say this) is either God sent or God allowed.
14 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.
1 Therefore, holy brethren, who share in a heavenly call, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.
If we have a hesitant, faltering confession (listen) our faith will be weak and ineffectual.
Faith keeps pace with our confession.
We must confess who we are in Christ.
When you deny the word, the disease gains ascendancy and faith loses its place.
God can be no bigger in you than you confess Him to be.
