    About this ebook

    In a world fraught with evil, encroaching darkness, violence, strife and confusion, attacks on families, failing finances, distractions, and emotional instability, the usual reaction of man is that of despondency and negative proclamations. However, in the beginning, God saw the darkness, and he simply spoke the desired result into existence. Since we are made in his image, rather than confessing the problem (darkness), we are to confess the solution (the Word) thereby transforming darkness to light.

    For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Romans 10:10). Believing and confessing are important parts of our Christian walk. What becomes manifested in our lives depends on our faith and confession. When our lips contradicts the Word of God, then we prevent his work in and through us. But if we get our hearts and lips in line with his Word, he can manifest his grace in us and flow through us.

    Godfessions 3 is the third in the series of four compilations of inspired prayers and confessions of Gods word. The Bible makes us understand that as a man thinketh in his heart so is he. This book will help you cultivate an awareness of your spiritual blessings and the limitless power of God thereby enabling you to grow stronger in faith, as well as confessing and establishing the truth of Gods Word over you and your household through your declaration.

      INTRODUCTION

      Words have presence, power, and prophetic implications. Words have life. Jesus said in John 6:63, The Words that I speak to you, they are spirit and they are life. Words are the only creative force of life. With words we create, re-create, change, prohibit, and allow things in our lives. This is the power of confession.

      Words have no geographical limitations; they can penetrate anything and anywhere. A Roman centurion said to Jesus in Matthew 8:8, I am not worthy that thou should come under my roof; but speak the word only and my servant shall be healed. He understood that Gods word could be spoken anywhere and still produce result.

      Confession means to repeatedly and continually say a thing in order to achieve a desired end. Confession also means; The affirmation of truth. Anyone can make a confession irrespective of age, gender, race, creed, or location - anyone who desires to repeatedly affirm a truth or a conviction towards a desired end.

      There are any perceived truths in the world that people subscribe to and confess, but only the truth of God’s word will make a man free indeed. So when we confess Gods word, we set in motion the power of true freedom in our lives.

      Words are more important than a lot of people realize. We must recognize the place that confession holds in the scheme of things. Jesus himself showed us the power of our words when he said in Matthew 17:20, Ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. The Message Bible says You could do anything! Jesus is showing words have presence, power and prophetic and prophetic implications. Words have life. Jesus said in John 6:63, The words that I speak to you, they are spirit and they are life."

      1. Called and Chosen

      Today, I speak over my life and my household that the newness of God’s grace will shine upon us and that God’s mercy attaches itself to us all the days of my life.

      I bask in the sea of God’s steadfast love, I receive the peace of His glorious presence, and I’m surrounded by the hosts of heaven; I will not fear, because God is with me. I am a city sought after; I am favored by men, and God has set me apart for miracles for the rest of my life. My future is clear, and I cannot be stranded. My progress is steady, I will not be delayed, I am accepted in the beloved, and I will never be rejected. I have been selected and elected, called, and chosen; I am a city on a hill, and my glory cannot be hidden. I am ordained for greatness; I break the yoke of smallness and shatter the chains of mediocrity. I have life; I am blessed with abundance, and I partake of the divine nature. I have life eternal. I take my place among the elders at the gate. I am an ambassador of God’s kingdom. I am a carrier of the divine spirit. I am a child of consolation and a son of encouragement. I am programmed for dominion and primed for greatness. I was born to rule, and I was created to reign in life. I prosper. I am a creature of immense value, made for glory and honor. I am the apple of God’s eye; I am the salt of the earth and the light of the world. I am one of a kind. I am the King’s son. Everything works for my good.

      In Jesus’s name, I believe and say amen.

      SELECTED AFFIRMATIONS

      I am a creature of immense value, made for glory and honor.

      I am favored by men, and God has set me apart for miracles for the rest of my life.

      SUGGESTED SCRIPTURES

      Everyone that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. (Isaiah 43:7)

      And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. (Luke 2:52)

      Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. (2 Peter 1:4)

      And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. (Genesis 1:26)

      2. Rest without Fear

      Today, I speak over my life and my household that God will set a hedge of protection around us and keep us safe from hurt and harm.

      I am surrounded by the hosts of heaven, like mountains surround Jerusalem. I lift the shield of faith, and I douse every fiery dart of the enemy. God is my buckler and my strong tower, a mighty fortress and my high tower; He is my impenetrable bunker, a no-go zone for the enemy. I will not fear what my foes may do or say, for I am loved by God. Perfect love casts out fear, and I do not have the spirit of slavery again to fear; I have the spirit of power, I have the spirit of love, and I have a sound mind. The Lord is my light, and the Lord is my strength; He is my portion, and He is my salvation. I will be afraid of no one, for I am the redeemed of the Lord, and I belong to Him. I have been bought with the blood of the everlasting covenant; He gave His commandment and charge concerning me, so I must not be harmed. I am the anointed of the Lord, set apart for His divine and holy use. I am untouchable to the enemy of my soul; I am kept jealousy as the apple of His eye. My soul rests without inhibition, and my heart dwells in safety. I am not moved, my gaze is fixed on the most high, and I will not see shame. My hands are lifted high in triumph over my enemies, and all my foes are destroyed.

      In Jesus’s name, I believe and say amen.

      SELECTED AFFIRMATION

      He gave His commandment and charge concerning me, so I must not be harmed. I am the anointed of the Lord, set apart for His divine and holy use.

      SUGGESTED SCRIPTURES

      No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. (John 10:18)

      And he said unto his men, The LORD forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the LORD’S anointed, to stretch forth my hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD. (1 Samuel 24:6)

      For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:10)

      The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? (Psalm 27:1)

      3. Living in the Realm of All Possibilities

      Today, I speak over my life and my household that God has come through for us. I encounter His power
