8/14/16 The power of your confession by pastor Iryna Mykhaylyk

This is very important topic in people’s life. Especially it can be really helpful to young people in order to build their lives on right foundation and have a good victorious life. Our lives are shaped by what we confess. You are what you say. Every time we can hear: "You are what you eat". It is about our physical health and it is true. But what is about our life in every area of it? You are what you say! Whatever you say about yourself will determine what life you will have tomorrow. In the spiritual realm all that happens to us is the result what we say or have said. Many people today complain about everything in their lives, they never see anything good around and particularly in themselves.
People who never see anything good in themselves are people who do not believe in themselves.

A man’s stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth; from the produce of his lips he shall be filled.     
                                                                                                                Proverbs 18:20      
What do you speak today? You need to break the habit of confessing negative. You can start now to declare good things to your life.
With your confession you can create your future life. 
We can see this principle taking part in God’s character. Please read Genesis chapter 1 and 2. If you will read very carefully you will see some difference between these two chapters. In chapter 1 we can see how God made the earth and everything on it.
​
…And God saw that it was good.
                                                                                                                 Genesis 1:2b   
If we carefully read chapter 1, one thing we can clearly see that God has already made a conclusion – it was good. All He has made in first chapter was not in physical realm, but in spiritual. It was all in His mind. We can see it in chapter two. 

When the Lord God made the earth and heavens – and no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth and no plant of the field had yet sprung up, for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to work the ground, but streams came up from the earth and watered whole surface of the ground…
                                                                                                                    Genesis 2:4b-6
It’s amazing! God has made everything in His mind. He created the earth and everything on it, including human beings, seeing something good. He did not see fullness of His plan for the people in physical world, because first man and woman committed a sin. But it has to be good one day. He already said it. He sent Jesus to bring us into the position of first Adam to fulfill God’s plan, which He had in His mind in Genesis chapter one.
Even now He still is waiting when His dream will become true. God trusts in us. So how can we not believe in ourselves? 
In Genesis chapter one you can see that God created everything by His word, by His confession. What He wanted to see He spoke. This is God’s principle: to speak exactly what you want to see in your life. He put
Death and life are only in the power of the tongue.
                                                                                                                 Proverbs18:21  
Start speaking in a new way! Instead of death you will receive life and your life will be filled with God’s blessings. You will reap the fruit of what you sow with your mouth.
God always sees something good even in bad situation. 
Because you are created in His image, you should view the situation the way He sees. If the devil through the mouth of the doctor or someone else is saying that you are dying, or you are nobody, or you have no future, don’t be frustrated! Open your Bible and confess the Word of God in your life. Start to proclaim healing, prosperity, happy life, anything you need you can speak and you will reap the fruit of your confession.
Remember:
Death and life are only in the power of the tongue.
Be careful in your discussions with others. If a man only speaks negative things, bless him and advise him to read the Bible and if he does not change, it is better for you to keep away from such person. Find people who speak positive and encourage others, to speak words of love. Remember: your life is in your hands, in your mouth. You can build your life now by your confession. Never fight with people in this case, never concentrate on that what people talk about you. Be quiet and confess good things in your life, opposite to people’s confessions. Death and life are only in the power of your tongue!!! 
 
For meditation:
 
We are also believe and therefore speak
                                                                              2 Corinthians4:13b
 
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen
                                                                                Hebrew11:1
 
Home task:
Find place in the Bible what you can confess into your life.
When you pray start to confess it in your life.
Never give up!!! God will be with you!!!
