Biblical teachings expose a truth many believers have missed about faith confession. If you've been speaking the Word but still not seeing results, this message uncovers why, and what to do differently starting today.
Most churches will tell you to pray. Most wilI tell you to read your Bible. But very few will teach you about the power of faith confession.
BUT VERY FEW WILL TEACH YOU ABOUT THE POWER OF FAITH CONFESSION.
And even fewer will explain why. It's not just about saying nice things.
IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT SAYING NICE THINGS.
Faith confession is not some self-help mantra or Christian version of positive thinking. It's not wishful talking. It's not psychological pep talk.
FAITH CONFESSION IS NOT SOME SELF-HELP MANTRA OR CHRISTIAN VERSION OF POSITIVE THINKING. IT'S NOT WISHFUL TALKING. IT'S NOT PSYCHOLOGICAL PEP TALK.
AND IT'S NOT A FORMULA TO GET GOD TO DO WHAT YOU WANT. And it's not a formula to get God to do what you want.
According to scripture and according to revelation knowledge, it is actually how spiritual reality is released into your natural life.
IT'S ACTUALLY HOW SPIRITUAL REALITY IS RELEASED INTO YOUR NATURAL LIFE.
And if you don't understand this, you could spend your whole life praying hard, trying harder, and still never walk in what God has already given you. But once you do understand it, everything changes.
AND IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS, YOU COULD SPEND YOUR WHOLE LIFE PRAYING HARD, TRYING HARDER, AND STILL NEVER WALK IN WHAT GOD HAS ALREADY GIVEN YOU. BUT ONCE YOU DO UNDERSTAND IT, EVERYTHING CHANGES.
You'll stop begging God for things he already said "yes" to. You'll stop speaking like a victim, and you'll start living from your true spiritual authority.
YOU'LL STOP BEGGING GOD FOR THINGS HE ALREADY SAID "YES" TO. YOU'LL STOP SPEAKING LIKE A VICTIM AND YOU'LL START LIVING FROM YOUR TRUE SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY.
So, right now, I'm going to show you what most churches won't tell you about faith confession.
SO, RIGHT NOW, I'M GONNA SHOW YOU WHAT MOST CHURCHES WON'T TELL YOU ABOUT FAITH CONFESSION.
Not because they're hiding it, but because they've either forgotten it, misunderstood it, or replaced it with tradition.
NOT BECAUSE THEY'RE HIDING IT, BUT BECAUSE THEY'VE EITHER FORGOTTEN IT, MISUNDERSTOOD IT, OR REPLACED IT WITH TRADITION .
I want you to stick around to the end because l'm not just giving you theology. I'm giving you revelation that produces transformation.
I WANT YOU TO STICK AROUND TO THE END BECAUSE I'M NOT JUST GIVING YOU THEOLOGY. I'M GIVING YOU REVELATION THAT PRODUCES TRANSFORMATION.
And if you apply this, you'll never look at your words or your faith the same way again.
YOU'LL NEVER LOOK AT YOUR WORDS OR YOUR FAITH THE SAME WAY AGAIN.
Let's start with what most people think confession is.
LET'S START WITH WHAT MOST PEOPLE THINK CONFESSION IS.
In a lot of Christian circles, confession simply means admitting sin. You confess your faults, you confess your failures.
IN A LOT OF CHRISTIAN CIRCLES, CONFESSION SIMPLY MEANS ADMITTING SIN. YOU CONFESS YOUR FAULTS , YOU CONFESS YOUR FAILURES.
And yes, the Bible says that when we confess our sins, God is faithful to forgive us.
AND YES, THE BIBLE SAYS THAT WHEN WE CONFESS OUR SINS, GOD IS FAITHFUL TO FORGIVE US.
But ,that's just one small part of the bigger picture. In the Greek, the word confess is homologio, which literally means to say the same thing.
BUT THAT'S JUST ONE SMALL PART OF THE BIGGER PICTURE. IN THE GREEK, THE WORD CONFESSED IS HOMOLOGIO , WHICH LITERALLY MEANS TO SAY THE SAME THING.
It means agreeing with something. So when you confess your sins, you're agreeing with God that it was wrong.
IT MEANS AGREEING WITH SOMETHING. SO WHEN YOU CONFESS YOUR SINS, YOU'RE AGREEING WITH GOD THAT IT WAS WRONG.
But when you confess God's promises, you're agreeing with him that they are rightfully yours.
BUT WHEN YOU CONFESS GOD'S PROMISES, YOU'RE AGREEING WITH HIM THAT THEY ARE RIGHTFULLY YOURS.
And this is where most churches stop short.
AND THIS IS WHERE MOST CHURCHES STOP SHORT.
They teach repentance, but not release.
THEY TEACH REPENTANCE, BUT NOT RELEASE.
They teach admitting sin but not declaring victory. And as a result, many Christians live in a cycle of guilt, constantly confessing what's wrong with them, but never declaring what's right with them in Christ.
THEY TEACH ADMITTING SIN BUT NOT DECLARING VICTORY. AND AS A RESULT, MANY CHRISTIANS LIVE IN A CYCLE OF GUILT, CONSTANTLY CONFESSING WHAT'S WRONG WITH THEM BUT NEVER DECLARING WHAT'S RIGHT WITH THEM IN CHRIST.
They keep revisiting the cross, but never rise up in the power of the resurrection.
THEY KEEP REVISITING THE CROSS, BUT NEVER RISE UP IN THE POWER OF THE RESURRECTION.
They say things like, "I'm just a sinner." Or, "I'm broken." Or "God, I know I'm not worthy." And they think that's humility.
THEY SAY THINGS LIKE , " I'M JUST A SINNER." OR, "I'M BROKEN." OR " GOD, I KNOW I'M NOT WORTHY." AND THEY THINK THAT'S HUMILITY.
But biblically, that's unbelief.
BUT BIBLICALLY THAT'S UNBELIEF.
Because if you're in Christ, God says you're righteous, healed, chosen, and complete.
BECAUSE IF YOU'RE IN CHRIST , GOD SAYS YOU'RE RIGHTEOUS, HEALED, CHOSEN AND COMPLETE .
And when your words disagree with God, you're not being humble. You're being misaligned.
AND WHEN YOUR WORDS DISAGREE WITH GOD, YOU'RE NOT BEING HUMBLE. YOU'RE BEING MISALIGNED.
Confession builds the road over which faith carries its mighty cargo. In other words, if you're not confessing the Word, you've got nowhere to drive your faith.
CONFESSION BUILDS THE ROAD OVER WHICH FAITHCARRIES ITS MIGHTY CARGO. IN OTHER WORDS, IF YOU'RE NOT CONFESSING THE WORD , YOU'VE GOT NOWHERE TO DRIVE YOUR FAITH.
Faith needs a vehicle. It needs words.
FAITH NEEDS A VEHICLE. IT NEEDS WORDS.
And not just any words, but your spoken words.
AND NOT JUST ANY WORDS, BUT YOUR SPOKEN WORDS.
You have to speak it out. 🗣️💬
YOU HAVE TO SPEAK IT OUT . 🗣️💬
It's not enough to believe in your heart.
IT'S NOT ENQUGH TO BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART.
The Bible says, "If you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth, you shall be saved."
THE BIBLE SAYS, " IF YOU BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART AND CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH , YOU SHALL BE SAVED."
That's not just true for salvation.
THAT'S NOT JUST TRUE FOR SALVATION.
That's true for everything in the Kingdom of God.
THAT'S TRUE FOR EVERYTHINGIN THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
Healing, provision, protection, peace. All of it flows through believing and confessing.
HEALING, PROVISION, PROTECTION, PEACE. ALL OF IT FLOWS THROUGH BELIEVING AND CONFESSING.
Your mouth is the switch that turns on the power of what is already true in the spirit.
YOUR MOUTH IS THE SWITCH THAT TURNS ON THE POWER OF WHAT IS ALREADY TRUE IN THE SPIRIT.
But here's where the confusion comes in.
BUT HERE'S WHERE THE CONFUSION COMES IN.
Some churches hear the word confession and immediately assume it's a prosperity gimmick.
SOME CHURCHES HEAR THE WORD CONFESSION AND IMMEDIATELY ASSUME IT'SA PROSPERITY GIMMICK.
They think you're trying to manipulate God with your words.
THEY THINK YOU'RE TRYING TO MANIPULATE GOD WITH YOUR WORDS.
Or worse, they think you're trying to speak things into existence like some kind of new age teaching.
OR WORSE, THEY THINK YOU'RE TRYING TO SPEAK THINGS INTO EXISTENCE LIKE SOME KIND OF NEW AGE TEACHING.
So, they dismiss the entire idea.
SO THEY DISMISS THE ENTIRE IDEA.
But biblical confession is not about trying to create your own reality. It's about agreeing with God's reality. You're not the Creator. God is the Creator.
BUT BIBLICAL CONFESSION IS NOT ABOUT TRYING TO CREATE YOUR OWN REALITY. IT'S ABOUT AGREEING WITH GOD'S REALITY. YOU'RE NOT THE CREATOR. GOD IS THE CREATOR.
God Is.
GOD IS.
But Gid does give you a voice.
BUT HE DOES GIVE YOU A VOICE.
And your voice when aligned with his word becomes a channel for the spirit to move.
AND YOUR VOICE WHEN ALIGNED WITH HIS WORD BECOMES A CHANNEL FOR THE SPIRIT TO MOVE.
Let me give you an example.
LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE.
Think about salvation.
THINK ABOUT SALVATION.
No one argues that you're saved by faith. But that faith has to be confessed. You believed in your heart and you spoke it with your mouth.
NO ONE ARGUES THAT YOU'RE SAVED BY FAITH. BUT THAT FAITH HAS TO BE CONFESSED. YOU BELIEVED IN YOUR HEART AND YOU SPOKE IT WITH YOUR MOUTH.
That wasn't optional.
THAT WASN'T OPTIONAL.
That was how salvation became yours.
THAT WAS HOW SALVATION BECAME YOURS.
Now, let me ask you, why would healing, or peace, or spiritual authority work any differently?
NOW, LET ME ASK YOU WHY WOULD HEALING, OR PEACE, OR SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY WORK ANY DIFFERENTLY?
The same principle applies.
THE SAME PRINCIPLE APPLIES.
If you're not speaking it, you're not enforcing it. And if you're not enforcing it, you're letting the enemy run unchallenged in areas where Jesus Christ already won.
IF YOU'RE NOT SPEAKING IT, YOU'RE NOT ENFORCING IT. AND IF YOU'RE NOT ENFORCING IT, YOU'RE LETTING THE ENEMY RUN UNCHALLENGED IN AREAS WHERE JESUS CHRIST ALREADY WON.
One of the biggest lies in the church today is that God will do it when he's ready.
ONE OF THE BIGGEST LIES IN THE CHURCH TODAY IS THAT GOD WILL DO IT WHEN HE'S READY.
But in the New Testament, God has already done it through Christ.
BUT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT, GOD HAS ALREADY DONE IT THROUGH CHRIST.
He already gave you the victory. He already gave authority. He already made you righteous.
HE ALREADY GAVE YOU THE VICTORY. HE ALREADY GAVE YOU AUTHORITY. HE ALREADY MADE YOU RIGHTEOUS.
Speak this sentence daily: " I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. "
SPEAK THIS SENTENCE DAILY: " I AM THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS."
And your role is not to keep asking him to do what's already finished, but to stand in agreement with what he's already said.
AND YOUR ROLE IS NOT TO KEEP ASKING HIM TO DO WHAT'S ALREADY FINISHED, BUT TO STAND IN AGREEMENT WITH WHAT HE'S ALREADY SAID.
That's what confession is.
THAT'S WHAT CONFESSION IS.
Not begging, not performing, just agreeing and enforcing the truth.
NOT BEGGING, NOT PERFORMING, JUST AGREEING AND ENFORCING THE TRUTH.
So practically, what does faith confession look like?
SO PRACTICALLY, WHAT IS FAITH CONFESSION LOOK LIKE?
Faith confession means waking up and saying, "l am who God says l am. I have what he says I have. I can do what he says I can do."
FAITH CONFESSION MEANS WAKING UP AND SAYING, I AM WHO GOD SAYS I AM. I HAVE WHAT HE SAYS I HAVE. I CAN DO WHAT HE SAYS I CAN DO."
It means speaking scriptures over your life even when you don't feel them. It means declaring healing over your body while you're still fighting symptoms. It means declaring peace when your mind is anxious. It means saying, "I'm strong in the Lord." , when your body feels weak.
IT MEANS SPEAKING SCRIPTURES OVER YOUR LIFE EVEN WHEN YOU DON'T FEEL THEM. IT MEANS DECLARING HEALING OVER YOUR BODY WHILE YOU'RE STILL FIGHTING SYMPTOMS. IT MEANS DECLARING PEACE WHEN YOUR MIND IS ANXIOUS. IT MEANS SAYING, "I'M STRONG IN THE LORD.", WHEN YOUR BODY FEELS WEAK.
Why? Because you're not speaking your feelings. You're speaking your faith.
WHY? BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT SPEAKING YOUR FEELINGS. YOU'RE SPEAKING YOUR FAITH.
You're not declaring your condition.
YOU'RE NOT DECLARING YOUR CONDITION.
You're declaring your covenant.
YOU'RE DECLARING YOUR COVENANT.
Some people think that's fake. They say,"I don't want to be a hypocrite. I don't want to say something I don't feel."
SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT'S FAKE. THEY SAY, " I DON'T WANT TO BE A HYPOCRITE. I DON'T WANT TO SAY SOMETHING I DON'T FEEL."
But you're not being fake when you speak the Word. You're being faithful because this faith is based on what God said.
BUT YOU'RE NOT BEING FAKE WHEN YOU SPEAK THE WORD . YOU'RE BEING FAITHFUL BECAUSE THIS FAITH IS BASED ON WHAT GOD SAID.
And if God said it, it's more real than what you feel. In fact, confession is what helps change how you feel.
AND IF GOD SAID IT, IT'S MORE REAL THAN WHAT YOU FEEL. IN FACT, CONFESSION IS WHAT HELPS CHANGE HOW YOU FEEL.
Your mouth leads your mind. And over time, what starts as a faith statement becomes your default reality.
YOUR MOUTH LEADS YOUR MIND. AND OVER TIME, WHAT STARTS AS A FAITH STATEMENT BECOMES YOUR DEFAULT REALITY.
This is why I said, "Hold fast to your confession. Never voice doubt. Never speak fear."
THIS IS WHY I SAID, " HOLD FAST TO YOUR CONFESSION. NEVER VOICE DOUBT. NEVER SPEAK FEAR."
Not because doubt or fear won't come, but because your words are the guardrails that keep your faith on track.
NOT BECAUSE DOUBT OR FEAR WON'T COME , BUT YOUR WORDS ARE THE GUARDRAILS THAT KEEP YOUR FAITH ON TRACK.
When you speak fear, you give it a foothold.
WHEN YOU SPEAK FEAR, YOU GIVE IT A FOOTHOLD.
When you speak lack, you invite it in. AT
WHEN YOU SPEAK LACK, YOU INVITE IT IN.
But when you speak faith, when you declare what God says, even in the face of contradiction, you're building a world that heaven can move through.
BUT WHEN YOU SPEAK FAITH, WHEN YOU DECLARE WHAT GOD SAYS, EVEN IN THE FACE OF CONTRADICTION, YOU'RE BUILDING A WORLD THAT HEAVEN CAN MOVE THROUGH.
Now, I know this might sound different than what you've heard in traditional church. That's okay.
NOW, I KNOW THIS MIGHT SOUND DIFFERENT THAN WHAT YOU'VE HEARD IN TRADITIONAL CHURCH. THAT'S OKAY.
Sometimes the truth challenges tradition. But you have to decide, "do I want safe religion or supernatural results," because every time Jesus Christ healed someone, he said something.
SOMETIMES THE TRUTH CHALLENGES TRADITION. BUT YOU HAVE TO DECIDE , " DO I WANT SAFE RELIGION OR SUPERNATURAL RESULTS," BECAUSE EVERY TIME JESUS HEALED SOMEONE, HE SAID SOMETHING.
Every time the apostles cast out demons, they spoke. Every time faith moved mountains, it started with words.
EVERY TIME THE APOSTLES CAST OUT DEMONS, THEY SPOKE. EVERY TIME FAITH MOVED MOUNTAINS, IT STARTED WITH WORDS.
So why would we think our faith could stay silent and still work?
SO WHY WOULD WE THINK OUR FAITH COULD STAY SILENT AND STILL WORK?
Let me be clear. Faith confession is not magic. It's not a shortcut. It's not about perfect grammar or quoting Bible verses word for word.
LET ME BE CLEAR. FAITH CONFESSION IS NOT MAGIC. IT'S NOT A SHORT CUT. IT'S NOT ABOUT PERFECT GRAMMAR OR QUOTING BIBLE VERSES WORD FOR WORD.
It's about heart agreement expressed through your mouth.
IT'S ABOUT HEART AGREEMENT EXPRESSED THROUGH YOUR MOUTH.
It's a lifestyle of saying what God says.
IT'S A LIFESTYLE OF SAYING WHAT GOD SAYS.
And when you make it a habit, your entire atmosphere shifts.
AND WHEN YOU MAKE IT A HABIT, YOUR ENTIRE ATMOSPHERE SHIFTS.
Your mind becomes sharper. Because it is the mind of Christ.
YOUR MIND BECOMES SHARPER. BECAUSE IT IS THE MIND OF CHRIST.
Your emotions become more stable.
YOUR EMOTIONS BECOME MORE STABLE.
Your body starts aligning with life because you're not just trying to feel better.
YOUR BODY STARTS ALIGNING WITH LIFE BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT JUST TRYING TO FEEL BETTER.
You're walking in the spirit by speaking the truth.
YOU'RE WALKING IN THE SPIRIT BY SPEAKING THE TRUTH.
So here's what I want you to do. Starting today, begin speaking three things every morning. Who you are in Christ
SO HERE'S WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO. STARTING TODAY, BEGIN SPEAKING THREE THINGS EVERY MORNING . WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST
Starting today, begin speaking three things every morning. Who you are in Christ, what belongs to you because of the cross, and what you refuse to tolerate in your life.
STARTING TODAY, BEGIN SPEAKING THREE THINGS EVERY MORNING. WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST, WHAT BELONGS TO YOU BECAUSE OF THE CROSS, AND WHAT YOU REFUSE TO TOLERATE IN YOUR LIFE.
For example, l am the righteousness of God. I walk in divine health, and I do not accept fear, confusion, or lack because l am in covenant with Jesus Christ.
FOR EXAMPLE, I AM THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD . I WALK IN DIVINE HEALTH, AND I DO NOT ACCEPT FEAR, CONFUSION OR LACK BECAUSE I AM IN COVENANT WITH JESUS CHRIST.
Say it out loud. Write it on your mirror. Set reminders, not because you're trying to force something to happen, but because you're choosing to agree with what's already true in the spirit.
SAY IT OUT LOUD. WRITE IT ON YOUR MIRROR. SET REMINDERS, NOT BECAUSE YOU'RE TRYING TO FORCE SOMETHING TO HAPPEN, BUT BECAUSE YOU'RE CHOOSING TO AGREE WITH WHAT'S ALREADY TRUE IN THE SPIRIT.
If this message challenged you or set something free in you, then don't stop here. In the next message, we're going to talk about something that will completely shift how you see yourself.
IF THIS MESSAGE CHALLENGED YOU OR SET SOMETHING FREE IN YOU, THEN DON'T STOP HERE. IN THE NEXT MESSAGE, WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT SOMETHING THAT WILL COMPLETELY SHIFT HOW YOU SEE YOURSELF.
It's called God's mirror: What you see when you look at Jesus Christ. Because when you see him clearly, you finally see you clearly.
This is where identity becomes revelation. You won't want to miss it.
IT'S CALLED GOD'S MIRROR: WHAT YOU SEE WHEN YOU LOOK AT JESUS CHRIST. BECAUSE WHEN YOU SEE HIM CLEARLY, YOU FINALLY SEE YOU CLEARLY.
THIS IS WHERE IDENTITY BECOMES REVELATION. YOU WON'T WANT TO MISS IT.
SPEAK LIFE. AND ABOVE ALL STAY IN CHRIST JESUS.
