Introduction

ABSOLUTE VICTORY is God's plan for every human being. You were created to have dominion on the earth. Jesus Christ regained the authority that Adam lost. He has given you grace and righteousness in order that you might reign on the earth. You were born again a winner—a triumphant one!

Knowing what Jesus has done for you and in you will change your life! He destroyed the power of the devil (1 John 3:8). He disarmed the wicked demon spirits (Colossians 2:15). His resurrection has made possible a resurrection in you. You have been raised from death to life, from defeat to victory.

Agree with God. What He says, you say. You will rise up to live on the level of your confession. You are what God says you are. You can do what He says you can do. God has plans for you that are beyond your wildest dreams. He has planned for you to live in ABSOLUTE VICTORY!

Stronger Each Day

"How blessed is the man whose strength is in thee: in whose heart are the highways to Zion!

"They go from strength to strength, every one of them appears before God in Zion"

Psalm 84:5,7 (NAS).

God says you are blessed because your strength is in Him. "The Lord is the strength of your life" (Psalm 27:1). You have God's own power. You have His ability, His force, His might—His energy. All of God's strength is yours.

You are daily increasing in strength. Every moment you are getting stronger.

You are going from one degree of strength to another.

It is God's Word building you up—making you stronger.

God has not given you a defeated attitude, one that cowers in fear, but rather He has given you a "spirit of power" (2 Timothy 1:7).

When you met Jesus, you exchanged your weakness for His strength.

You are strong now—in the Lord, in the power of His might (Ephesians 6:10).

You have been strengthened with might by God's Spirit in your inner man (Ephesians 3:16).

Resurrection power is flowing through you by the Holy Spirit.

You have an anointing from God that breaks every yoke of bondage.

You will never have to be afraid again. You know who you are. You know who Jesus is and what He has done for you. The

Word has made all the difference.

You have realized that meekness is not weakness, but rather a total dependence on Jesus. HE IS STRONG. "... The government is upon His shoulder" (Isaiah 9:6).

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I am strong in the Lord, in the power of His might. Every day I live, God's strength is increasing in me. The Spirit of God rests upon me in fullness of power. Weakness is a thing of the past.

Victory Through Our Lord Jesus Christ

"But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ"

1 Corinthians 15:57.

Instill this mighty truth into your heart. your soul. and your body—YOU HAVE VICTORY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST! Yes, victory has been given to you. That means you have victory in every area of your life. It is victory over all the power of the adversary.

It is a fact that you have absolute victory in Jesus Christ. a gift to be received in Him. The moment you accept Jesus, you also receive absolute victory. Think it. dream it. talk it. and you will live it.

The Word of God is filled with promises guaranteeing God's help and provision for your life. As you continually fill your mind with these blessings, you will rise up and walk in the realm of absolute victory. You see, it is already yours! You're not trying to get it. The knowledge of the truth sets you free from the limitations of the old life. You are liberated to walk in the light of the new creation.

Your victory is not dependent upon educational degrees, Sunday School certificates, or perfect attendance at worship services. Victory is yours because of what Jesus has done. He completed the work of redemption through His suffering, His death, and His resurrection. "THE WORK" is finished. The thing for you to do is appropriate it. Just reckon it done.

Continual confession of what you have in Christ builds a fortress about your mind. It establishes a pattern of response to situations and circumstances. God performs His Word (Jeremiah 1:12). Speak the Word, and watch God perform it in your life.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I have victory through Christ. Everything I do is successful through Jesus. God gives me victory everywhere I go. I cannot lose for I have victory through my Lord Jesus Christ.

Wanting Nothing

"My brethern, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing"

James 1:24.

You can rejoice in the midst of temptations! Believe it, God said it. The reason for this is that God gives you the ability and power to overcome every temptation you face. God will not abandon you at the point of trial.

The grace of God is sufficient to cause you to meet every obstacle victoriously. Joy is a source of strength (Nehemiah 8:10). It is a very high form of faith. Joy releases the power of God to work in your behalf.

God tells you to rejoice in the very face of temptation. By doing it, you are releasing your faith. The power of God goes forth to overcome the barrier. Your rejoicing is in God, not in the temptation.

The reason many of us have not taken advantage of this portion of Scripture in James has been because we have misunderstood it. People could not reconcile rejoicing over temptations and yet they tried to do it. If someone is continually saying thanks for temptations, they open the door for more of them.

Learn to thank God in the situation for his ability, not for the situation. Praise God for what He has done for you instead of glorifying the devil for his attacks. There is a line between the two attitudes that is of utmost importance.

As you rejoice in God's help to overcome the temptation, you will be standing on the Word by faith. This is called patience or steadfastness. As you are patient and consistent, God promises you will be perfect and entire, wanting nothing (James 1:4).

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I am patient. I rejoice in all situations. God perfects me and supplies everything I need. I lack no good thing. Thank God, You are Lord over every trial and temptation that tries to come my way.

Abundant Life

"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly"

John 10:10.

Abundant life is God's phrase for the "good life." Abundant means excess, more than enough, bounteous, rich, profuse, extravagant, fully enough, and lavish. This is the type of life God has planned for every believer. That includes YOU. Your life is blessed—abundant, prosperous, and successful.

The devil is the thief, the killer, and the destroyer. God is the Blesser, the Giver, the Abundant One. Don't get God and the devil mixed up. They are totally different with entirely opposite motives concerning your welfare. God is for you. The devil is against you. However, since God is for you, the devil can't stand against you.

Jesus came into the world to give us the life of God. God's life is abundant, full, and ample. Jesus came so we could have this blessing. He wants you to enjoy the abundant life.

You were not reborn to barely get along. The Father takes no great pleasure in seeing His children living in poverty. Realize this: your Father wants you to enjoy His riches in glory right now. He loves you and does not plan for your failure. God plans for you to succeed.

Jesus came into the world to give to you, not take from you. His purpose of giving eternal life was fulfilled in His resurrection. Resurrection life comes into us when we are saved. It gives us abundant life. Eternal life is abundant—NOW! It is always more than enough.

I live abundantly in Christ Jesus. He is my Shepherd, and I do not want. No good thing is withheld from me. God has blessed me with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

5

World Overcomer

"For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

"Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?"

1 John 5:4,5

Most people have associated overcoming with achievement, but you gradually grow into the position of being an overcomer. Notice the verse again. Who does it say is an overcomer? "... he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God." This means every Christian. From the very moment you are born again, you are an overcomer!

You are a child of God. You have been born into the family of overcomers. Every born-again child of God is an overcomer. You are no exception. You are as much an overcomer as any other believer.

Your job is simply to accept your God-appointed position. Agree with God. Never again confess you are a failure or a loser. You are a born overcomer. You are now by nature an overcomer. See victory in every area of your life.

Jesus is the true overcomer! He now lives in you. Your faith in His life in you is the victory. Believe and confess that Jesus lives His life in you and you live your life in Him.

Faith is the victory. Acceptance and recognition of Jesus and His finished work always produce confidence. You may boldly say that you overcome temptations and all forms of evil.

Stand upon your rights and privileges. You have God inside of you. Acknowledge what He says about you.

I am a world overcomer! I overcome the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. Jesus lives in me. Since He is an overcomer, I am an overcomer. What Jesus did was done for me. My faith in His work is the victory that overcomes the world.

6

Fellowship with the Father and Son

"That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ"

1 John 1:3.

One of the greatest privileges of being saved is fellowship with the Father and Son. There is no greater joy than that of being in the presence of the Father and Jesus.

You have the blessing of fellowship with the Father and Son as a result of Jesus' suffering for your sins. There is no sin that the blood of Jesus cannot cover.

Strong faith is a product of close fellowship with the Father. Revelation knowledge flows out of intimate communion. As you come to know Him more personally, you come to better know your victory in Him.

Walking in victory is not achieved simply by following a formula. Walking in victory is only a result of walking in fellowship with our Father and Jesus.

I encourage you to seek after Him. Don't just seek victory and success. Seek Jesus and you will experience blessings and prosperity. "Seek ye first the kingdom of God... and all these things shall be added unto you" (Matthew 6:33).

The Father desires that we fellowship with Him. You need only acknowledge that your fellowship is with the Father and Son.

Your fellowship is based upon promises in God's Word. Therefore, you stand by faith in this blessing just as you would for any other.

My fellowship is with the Father and the Son, Jesus Christ. I only hear the voice of my Shepherd. I will not hear the voice of any stranger. My fellowship is intimate and unbroken.

7

No Condemnation

"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit"

Romans 8:1.

There is glorious liberty in the family of God! Our Father does not condemn us for any past sin. All judgment for our sin has passed upon Jesus. As you put your faith in the blood of Jesus, there is a perfect cleansing from all sin.

The Spirit of God will convict men to point them to Jesus. God's same conviction is determined to lead us into faith and freedom. The opposite is true of condemnation. It points people to their sin and away from Calvary. Condemnation leads to fear and bondage. Know the difference. One leads to life; the other leads to death.

In your acceptance of Jesus Christ, you have received God's grace and mercy. You are now "in Christ" by virtue of the new birth. There is absolutely no condemnation in Jesus at all. He had no sin, and He has no sin. Yet, for a brief time in history, Jesus accepted the sin of the world along with its punishment. The judgment is passed. God is not holding the sins of the world against the ungodly. He is offering reconciliation (forgiveness and pardon) to all who accept His Son.

You are "in Christ" now. There is "no condemnation" in you or toward you from God. You are free from fear. You are liberated from guilt—no matter what you have done or where you have been. Since you made Jesus Christ the Lord of your life, there is "NO CONDEMNATION."

The truth of Romans 8:1 will keep you singing the rest of your life. Think on it. Talk about it. Most of all, act on it. Since you are not condemned, you have no need to condemn others.

What a freedom to see others reconciled to God and to tell them the Good News!

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

There is no condemnation in me. I refuse all guilt and shame over past sins and failures. I am free in Jesus for I have received God's grace.

Always Triumphant

"Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place"

2 Corinthians 2:14.

You always triumph in Jesus Christ. The Word says always. Settle it in your mind. Begin to confess daily: "I always triumph in Jesus Christ."

This is the winning attitude deluxe! This is true positive thinking. If you always triumph, that means you never fail. You never accept defeat as a final verdict. No matter what it looks like or how you feel as you hold fast to the profession of your faith, God will bring you out on top.

Notice it is God that causes us to triumph. God will personally accept responsibility for your victory. Stand on the Word, and the Word will put you over. Any situation can be changed by the Word of God. David refused to admit defeat in the face of Goliath. God used a sling and stone to miraculously defeat the enemy.

A wonderful added blessing to continual triumph is the privilege of manifesting the beautiful fragrance of God's knowledge everywhere we go. God is using you to perfume the earth with His knowledge—you might call it "The Taste of Victory" or "The essence of Triumph."

The world is in desperate need of knowledge to cope with the current problems and obstacles. Your constant triumph produces a fragrance that is very attractive to people in need. Get ready for opportunities to share. Tell them it is just part of being "in Christ."

I always triumph in Jesus Christ. I thank God for constant victory. Every situation I face is an opportunity to manifest the knowledge of God. I am strong and of a good courage for I know I always triumph in Jesus Christ.

Power-Filled Witnesses

"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth"

Acts 1:8.

The power of God is in you—the anointing of the Holy Spirit. There is nothing that can stand against the Spirit of the Lord residing in you. You have the power that created the universe infused into your being. You are not afraid of anything. There is no fear in you of man nor beast.

The Word says the power of the Spirit makes you a witness wherever you go. There is no obstacle too big for the Spirit to handle. His wisdom is yours to answer all the critics and antagonists. Your lips are fitted with the message of the Kingdom.

Never be intimidated by any situation. Everyone needs to hear about Jesus, and you have been equipped with the power to witness to anyone. You are like a paratrooper-commando dropping behind enemy lines and overcoming opposition on all sides. You can speak with authority! You give people a godly reverence because of your knowledge of Him.

See yourself as a mighty soul winner. You are out to preach Jesus and set the captives free! There is no more need to apologize or shuffle feet. You have said, "Here am I, Lord; send me." And you have been sent. You can do the job and you will.

God has given you the deluxe equipment to go into the harvest fields. Just go ahead in faith.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

The power of the Holy Spirit is upon me to witness of Jesus.

I am anointed by God to do His work. The Spirit leads and guides me to share the right things with the right people.

10

A Branch of the Vine

"I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing"

John 15:5.

You are a part of Jesus. There is no separation between branch and Vine. They grow together and are viewed as one. The branch draws its life from the Vine. You are living in union with Almighty God. It is His life flowing through you NOW!

God's strength has become yours, and you never need confess weakness again. To say, "I have no strength" is to deny your relationship to Jesus. All that He is has become yours. Pride cannot exalt its head in you for there is none in the Vine. The life you are living is in Him.

See yourself totally in Jesus. The branch doesn't look to itself for life. It is entirely dependent upon the Vine. It wouldn't think of existing without the Vine. You can't either. Your confession is always of what He is in you. It is never of what you were before you became a part of the Vine.

Feelings have no bearing on the authority of the Word. It is true regardless of what you feel. Be hard-nosed about the Word. Your battle is not with people (Ephesians 6:12). You can love those that hate you and never compromise the Word. In fact, if a person stops loving because of a conviction about Scripture, he has already compromised whether he knows it or not.

You have love, joy, and peace. Abide in Jesus. Confess the Word. Think about Him in you and you in Him. You will bear much fruit.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

Jesus, You are the Vine, and I am the branch. I am divinely joined to You. Your life is flowing through me. Everything You are, I am. Your strength, power, love, joy, and peace are mine. I bear much fruit.

11

Greater Works

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

"And whatsoever he shall ask in my name, that will I do that the Father may be glorified in the Son"

John 14:12,13.

Jesus says you will do what He did, in addition, you will do greater things. This is for you since you are a believer. It was not just for the 12 apostles. Notice, it says, "he that believeth." That includes every born-again person.

Think of all the miracles Jesus performed to meet the needs of people. Now think of all these accounts in light of John 14:12. In other words, see yourself doing those miracles.

See yourself speaking to the blind man and commanding him to be whole. See yourself lifting up the paralytic by the power of God. See yourself cleansing the leper. See yourself casting out devils and healing a withered hand.

The Scripture says you will do the same works Jesus did. If you were told you would be taking another person's place in a factory or business operation, you would inquire about that person's job responsibilities. You would see yourself doing that job. This is exactly what Jesus has called you to do.

You have been called to fulfill the ministry of Jesus on earth today. Jesus guarantees His support. You can ask the Father anything in His name, and it will be granted.

Be bold and take your authority. Imitate Jesus in all He did. Envision yourself living exactly as Jesus, and you will.

I do the same works Jesus did and greater ones, too. Whatever I ask the Father in Jesus' name is done by Jesus Christ.

12

You Shall Never Die

"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

"And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die ..."

John 11:25,26.

The moment you received Jesus, the old life passed away and a new life came into existence. That was your real death experience. "For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God" (Colossians 3:3).

Face up to it. You have already died and gone to heavenly places (Ephesians 2:5,6). Sure, the world cannot understand this kind of talk, but you can for God gives you understanding in all things (2 Timothy 2:7).

You have been delivered from the fear of death since Jesus destroyed "him that had the power of death, that is the devil "(Hebrews 2:14). You know what is going to happen when you leave your physical body. You will be with Jesus in heaven.

It makes no difference to the child of God as to his place. "For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain "(Philippians 1:21). You are always confident because you "walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:6,7).

Think of it. You are not afraid of death. You live fearlessly. You know you are divinely protected from all evil; yet, at the same time, there is no underlying torment about death.

You will never die. You may change your clothes—from your earth suit to heavenly attire, but you will not experience pangs of death. There is no sorrow, fear, nor depression.

I am crucified with Christ. I have already died with Him, and I am raised with Him. I am eternally alive in Jesus, and I will never die.

13

Never Thirsty

"But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life"

John 4:14.

Paul said in Ephesians 5:26, "That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word." Water also refers to the Holy Spirit (as in John 7:37-39). As you partake of God's Word and the Holy Spirit, you will be satisfied fully.

People without Christ are thirsting and starving for real life. Their spirits are craving for the eternal. Their life is shallow, empty, and fruitless.

You are a light in a dark place. You come as a river springing forth in the midst of a desert. Eternal life in you is the well of water springing up. It bubbles forth in joy, freedom, and victory. Eternal life is reality. It is tangible. Others can tell you are different. You don't sorrow and grieve as the world (John 14:1). You are positive and constantly filled with good reports. Everything you say is a blessing! You can't help it, for it comes out of your spirit automatically.

Fear has lost its grip over the dreams of your heart. Like a bird set free, you have no limitations. There are no more impossibilities, for your faith has laid hold of eternal life. God is in you.

Jesus has brought you into glorious liberty, and He has brought glorious liberty into you. Yes, you began in a dry, thirsty land, but the water from your lips has made the desert blossom as a rose.

Life comes forth from you to free the captive. Healing flows to the sick. Love lifts the downcast, and hope fills the despairing. It is all because Jesus is in you.

I am a light in dark places. I am a well of the water of life. As others see me, they too will want His light; and they will want to drink of the water of life.

14

Power Over the Enemy

"Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you"

Luke 10:19.

Jesus gave this authority (power) to all believers. You have divine authority given by the Lord Jesus Christ over all the power of the devil.

Your concern is no longer with what the devil is doing. The focus of your attention is upon the things God has called you to do. You know that nothing can stop the work of God to which you are directed.

People are never blessed by hearing what the devil has done. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Talk the Word, and people will be set free.

You stomp on serpents and scorpions (these are evil spirits or demons). You walk on them with your feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel of peace (Ephesians 6:15). Don't worry. "Nothing shall by any means hurt you."

You have divine protection according to God's Word. Keep your confession going all the time: "Nothing shall by any means hurt me or my family." Expect to live free of accidents, robberies, natural disasters, disease, and the assault of evil men.

God's Word is a standard, a shield. Put your faith in it for total immunity from all the works of the devil.

Most Christians need to rearrange their thinking in regard to the enemy. The less time you spend in that area, the better. As you think about Jesus and the things of God, the enemy will be dealt with sufficiently. An old saying is, "Accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative."

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I have power over serpents and scorpions. In Jesus' name, I have power over all the power of the enemy. Nothing shall by any means hurt me or my family. I am immune to evil by the authority of God's Word. I rejoice that my name is written in heaven.

15

The Kingdom Is Within

"... The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: "Neither shall they say, Lo here! or lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you"

Luke 17:20,21.

What a revelation! You are not waiting to die and get into the kingdom. The kingdom is already in you. You're not waiting to experience the joys of the kingdom, for they are here and now!

"For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy"

(Romans 14:17).

"You are the righteousness of God in Jesus Christ"

(2 Corinthians 5:21).

"You have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ"

(Romans 5:1).

Kingdom living is a part of reigning in life by Christ Jesus (Romans 5:17). You have been made a king and priest unto God through the blood of Christ (Revelation 1:5,6).

You are not dominated by situations and circumstances, for you have control by the Spirit and the Word. Your direction comes from within rather than outside.

The King is Jesus, and you are His personal friend. Everything He has heard from the Father, He has revealed to you (John 15:15). You have inside information about the power upholding the universe. You might say you have an inside track.

Jesus prayed for you to be kept from the evil of this world (John 17:15). You are still in it, but you are not of it. Your kingdom is of heaven and is, therefore, invisible to the natural eye. It is nonetheless real and powerful. Kingdoms of the world may rise and fall, but the kingdom of God within you is forever.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

The kingdom of God is within me now. I live in accordance with the laws of God, and I am free from the laws of sin and death.

16

The Spirit of the Lord Upon You

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

"To preach the acceptable year of the Lord"

Luke 4:18,19.

Jesus spoke these words as the Son of God. He did miracles and set many people free. It was because the Father had anointed Him with the Spirit of God.

You, too, are anointed by the Holy Spirit. "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you"

(Acts 1:8). God's Spirit has come upon you to give you power to live like Jesus.

The Spirit of God is upon you teaching you the truth (John 16:13). "But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things" (1 John 2:20). The anointing of God's Spirit gives you revelation, wisdom, and knowledge of the things of God.

You are a son of God. Jesus was the Son of God. You both have the same Father and the same heritage, for you are heirs of God (Romans 8:17). This means that you are to do the same things Jesus did. The same Spirit that came upon Jesus has come upon you.

You have confidence in God. You have His strength and His ability. It is not a man's natural ability or talent that gives absolute victory. "Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts" (Zechariah 4:6).

Jesus said, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also, and greater works than these shall he do because I go unto my Father" (John 14:12). You expect to duplicate the works of Jesus, for He lives in you; and God the Father has anointed you with the Holy Spirit.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me to preach the Gospel, heal the sick, deliver the oppressed, and free the captives.

With God Nothing Shall Be Impossible

"For with God nothing shall be impossible"

Luke 1:37.

You are being infused with faith by meditating on the Word of God. Your whole life is being transformed by the power of God's Spirit. You have revelation of the fact that God is in you now. Settle it in your heart. Since nothing is impossible with God, then nothing is impossible to you since God lives in your heart.

Everything you are called to do is possible. God will never instruct you to do something that is impossible. It is not possible for anything to be impossible in the face of God.

Moses faced the Red Sea with a hostile Egyptian army closing in behind him. The situation looked impossible. There seemed to be no way out. But God had given Moses a rod. It represented God's power and authority, His Word. When Moses raised the rod, the sea parted (Exodus 14). That which was impossible with ordinary men became possible to a man who knew his God.

God has given you His power and authority—His Word, His Name, and His Spirit. No matter what the obstacle, lift up the rod in Jesus' name and watch the mighty Holy Spirit work miracles.

Mankind has dreamed of living in a miracle life where supernatural feats would be possible. It's not just a dream for you; it's reality! It's not for show or entertainment, but as a witness of God's glory for the lives of those around you. You see, compassion is the motivation for God's intervening into human affairs. It was the love of God that gave those precious words to Mary. It was the Father's heart reaching out to you and me to bring us back into the family.

Nothing is impossible with God, and nothing is impossible to me because God lives big in me. I can do everything God wants me to do. His divine life in me has given me a victorious attitude.

More Than Conquerors

"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us"

Romans 8:37.

This is God's Word to you. The "we" includes you. Your position of being more than a conqueror is real NOW. Faith is always NOW. It is something we are guaranteed because of God's promise. Our faith makes us conquerors right now. It is ours. It is an actual possession—NOW.

To be a conqueror is tremendous. Conquer means to triumph, to overcome, to win, to succeed, or to be victorious. One version says, "we overwhelmingly conquer through Him" (NAS). This means absolute victory! The adversary is defeated! Glory!

You are more than a conqueror because Jesus' love is in you. His victory and life are yours by faith, not works. No matter what you have done or how you may have failed, you are more than a conqueror. Don't ever forget it. God the Father has made you to be a conqueror through the Son, Jesus Christ.

See yourself by visual imagination overcoming all the opposition of the enemy. The fact you are now more than a conqueror is reality. It is the truth. THE DEVIL IS DEFEATED. Daily make the confession of your victory and the devil's defeat.

You walk and live on the level of your past belief and confession. Where you are now is a result of what you have believed and confessed in the past days.

Be so single minded about who you are that nothing, no person, no situation, can ever change the image. The Word is real!

Accept your position, your victory, your name.

I am more than a conqueror. (Every time you say it, think of yourself winning over every obstacle.) Victory is a way of life for me. Jesus won victory for me. Jesus won victory in me. Now Jesus is winning victories through me.

I Can Do All Things Through Christ

"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me"

Philippians 4:13.

You are unbeatable in Christ. There is nothing that God wants you to do that you cannot do. Jesus in you gives you all the strength necessary to meet any challenge.

Fear goes out of the door when a person realizes he can do all things through Christ. There is just no room for torment to enter when this revelation comes.

What Paul said about himself in this passage was truth, not because of his own achievements, but because Christ lived in him. You can say exactly the same thing, not because of your education or ability, but because Christ lives in you.

Say it boldly all the time: "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." It is the truth that sets you free (John 8:32). Acknowledge daily that Christ is in you— living His life through you.

You will never again be stopped from beginning a new Spirit-led project. In the past, some have hesitated because they didn't know how to begin and what to expect. The unknown brought fear and ultimately paralyzed expansion and growth. But now you can do all things through Christ.

If someone needs a Sunday School teacher, an intercessor, or a witness, you can do the job. You see, you will never again say, "I can't" because of lack of ability or fear. Christ's ability is yours. You can do anything.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I can do anything God wants me to do. I am available to serve in the kingdom of God. I can witness with power. I can win souls for Jesus. I can love with Jesus' love. I can go the second mile. I can pray without ceasing. I can rejoice at all times. I can forgive.

Ask What Ye Will

"If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you"

John 15:7.

God has invited you to ask Him anything and it shall be done for you. What a way to live! God's Word is a delight, a joy in itself. Yet, God says if you live in the Word and the Word lives in you, everything you ask will be granted.

To abide in Jesus is to remain in fellowship and communion with Him. Jesus gives you the privilege of fellowshipping and communing with Him daily. He is sharing His life with you while the life you are living is His.

The Word abides in us as we allow it to dwell in our hearts and minds. Meditation of the Word is a key to letting the Word abide in you. Read it—study it—hear what God is saying to your heart. Speak it—mutter it to yourself. Think about it—imagine yourself doing the Word.

Ask what you will, and it shall be done. Don't worry about asking the wrong thing. If you are fellowshipping with the Lord in prayer and allowing His Word to dwell in you, then you will only desire God's will.

God has given you a commanding position—you ask what you will and it is done. It shall come to pass. It shall be answered. God is willing to fulfill your desires. He wants you to have whatever you will.

Traditional thinking has been contrary to this truth. The idea has been put forth that our will is so opposite to God's will that everything we would desire is wrong.

The truth is, God wants you to have more and enjoy more than you ever dreamed. The power to see your dreams come true is through fellowshipping with the Father and dwelling in the Word. Receiving what you ask becomes secondary to the joy of your time in the Word and prayer.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

The Word abides in me; therefore, everything I ask for shall be given me. God's desires are being implanted in my heart as I fellowship with Him and these desires are fulfilled by my Father.

Blessed with Every Spiritual Blessing

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ"

Ephesians 1:3.

We praise our Father for blessing us so abundantly. He has already blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. All you will ever need is now provided in Jesus.

Everything that we see in the world is a product of the unseen world of the Spirit. God is a Spirit. He spoke the world into existence using His faith. The unseen created a visible world. Therefore, the world is a product of the spiritual. Understanding this is important in understanding your spiritual blessings in heavenly places.

The fact that you are blessed with spiritual blessings does not mean there are no provisions for natural needs. Every natural provision is stored for you as a spiritual blessing in heavenly places. It comes forth into a visible, tangible provision as you use your faith. The same principle God used in bringing natural provisions into the earth from the unseen world of the Spirit is the same principle you can use to get your needs met.

Since your blessings are kept in heavenly places in Christ, they cannot be stolen, corrupted, or destroyed. Inflation or natural disaster never affects the godly person who has his treasure stored in heaven.

You are blessed above all people because God has already given you everything you will ever need. Knowing and believing this, you will have no fear of lack in any area. The bank of heaven is full and secure. Its windows are open to you.

I am a rich man. I have everything in Jesus. Blessings from God have overtaken my life. Goodness and mercy follow me all the days of my life. I am loaded with God's blessings every day. Every need is supplied according to God's riches in glory.

22

A New Creation

"Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new"

2 Corinthians 5:17.

You are a brand new species. You have a totally new nature since you came to Jesus Christ. God's life, eternal life, is now in you. Your spirit has been recreated to be like God.

To be in Christ is to be born again. The new birth happens by faith—it is a gift of God. You cannot earn it or merit it. Salvation is God's free gift. The moment you confess Christ and believe upon Him, you become brand new. You begin as a new baby in a new world—the kingdom of God—a new child in the family of God.

Everything in your life is new. Begin to believe it and say it aloud: "My whole life is new in Jesus." All things means ALL THINGS. Therefore, all things are new. Accept this miracle. Your attitudes, desires, goals, thoughts, and concepts are new because of Jesus in you.

All the old junk that was associated with your old life passed away. Its power and rule over your life are ended. Fear, addiction, hate, lust, envy, depression, and confusion all are part of the world system. The moment you became a new creation, they had no right to stay with you.

Declare your liberty; accept the freedom Jesus has given you. It is the faith in your heart and confession of your mouth that causes the wonderful blessings to be apparent in your life.

Just because you do not see all the old things leave immediately is no reason to quit confessing 2 Corinthians 5:17. Faith is taking God at His Word and acting on it as TRUTH.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I am a new creation. All of the old things of my unsaved life have passed away. All things are now new in me. I am a new person. I have God's life in me. I am made a new creation in the image of God.

Prosper and Be in Health

"Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth"

3 John 2.

God's will for you is prosperity and health in every area of your life. You are to have a healthy soul, a healthy spirit, and a healthy body. God is a healthy God, and He desires His children to experience their Father's health.

The Apostle John wrote this verse by inspiration of the Holy Ghost and revealed God's will for every believer. God is no respecter of persons (Acts 10:34). His will expressed to the Christians to whom John wrote is still His will for you.

The phrase, "I wish" could be, "I will," "I pray," or "I desire." God really wants you prosperous and healthy. "Above all things" indicates that God puts these blessings as top priority.

Godly prosperity and health begin on the inside of your soul. Notice the phrase, "as thy soul prospered." The outward, eternal health and prosperity seen by others is only an expression of a far greater health and prosperity inside you.

As you grow in mercy, love, gentleness, kindness, and goodness, your physical circumstances will be affected. Prosperity begins on the inside of you. People will want to know the God you serve because they will see in you the prosperity and health He gives. Your life is the most effective billboard the kingdom has. Let your light shine. Think it! Talk it! Live it! God's will is health and prosperity for the total man.

God's prosperity is always evidenced by generosity and humility. There is no stinginess or haughtiness in you, for God has placed His love in your heart. It is love that has prospered you and made you whole.

I am healthy and prosperous in my spirit, soul, and body. God's Word is implanted deep in my heart. The Word of God has transformed my soul. As I prosper inside my being, my outer man is also prospering.

God Is for You

“... If God be for us, who can be against us?”

"Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth"

Romans 8:31,33.

God is for you. He is in you. He is leading you. He is behind you. He is beside you. God is taking up your cause since you have joined yourself to Him.

This Scripture makes us invincible. You are unbeatable. There is no foe that is a match for God. Who can rise up against God Almighty?

God has said,

"... I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me"

(Hebrews 13:5,6).

God has promised not to abandon you in a tight spot. He doesn't get nervous when the situation is pressing. The God of Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps (Psalm 121:4). He is always available.

From here on, you will not be upset by adverse circumstances. Since God is for you, the circumstances are no factor! God holds the deciding vote—GOOD NEWS ... IT'S FOR YOU!

No longer will situations determine your decision. Situations have nothing to do with making decisions. You listen to God. He tells you what to do. The situation, whatever it may be, will just have to change to line up with the Word.

God is for me. There is no opposition that can stop me. There is no force that can stand against me. I achieve everything God calls me to do. It is God who makes me a winner. God dominates the enemy through me. Jesus is living big inside me. I am never alone. Fear is a thing of the past. Winning is my way.

25

All Things Work Together for Good

"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose"

Romans 8:28.

You are called according to God's purpose. The purpose first of all was to be redeemed. God called you, and you accepted His redemption plan. Don't question that calling. Verbally affirm, "I am called according to God’s purpose."

We KNOW that all things are working together for good. We are not hoping or wishing. There is no guess or chance. We know it. Without a doubt or question, all things are working together for good. We know it for a fact because the Word tells us this is so.

God says all things are working together for good. That means everything. Get your faith out ahead on this Scripture. Too many people wait until something bad happens before claiming this promise. They look back and say, "Well, it will all work out for good." How about starting NOW and believing this for all things in your future? Release the Word, and those situations will begin to line up in your favor.

Sometimes circumstances appear to be working out differently than what you had planned. If they do, don't drop your confession. Many times God has something better for us than what we imagined possible. If it starts coming at you with a different picture, continue to boldly say, "All things are working together for good in my life."

This promise covers those things you haven't even thought of today. Many unexpected blessings are coming your way because of releasing faith in this portion of the Word.

All things are working together for good in my life. Everything is fitting into God's perfect plan for my life. I am called according to God's purpose. I love God with all my heart.

26

Freely Given All Things

"He that spared not His own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?"

Romans 8:32

You have been given God's greatest gift—His Son, Jesus Christ. All of God's fullness has been put into Him. He is now living in you. Think about it. If God did not withhold the best He had, why would He withhold anything of lesser value?

Everything you will ever need is yours now. There are no limits on the things God will give His children who love Him and put their faith in Him.

Never confess lack. You have an abundant God who is willing to give you the very best He has and all else that is necessary for your life. You can't possibly do without in this new way of living.

The story of the children of Israel is an example of God's commitment to His people. Whatever they needed, God supplied. Deliverance from bondage came when they cried unto the Lord. God crushed their enemies in the Red Sea when they had no way to turn. God provided food, water, warmth, protection, and guidance to them while they wandered in the desert. He was their everything.

God has never changed! He is still the same. We now receive all the blessings of God. Through Jesus Christ, we have an open supply line between heaven's storehouse and us.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

God delivered up His Son for me. Through Jesus, the Father freely gives me all things to enjoy. I am able to share freely with others because I know I have an abundance to give. The days of lack are over. The time of abundance has come. My Father is El Shaddai—the God who is more than enough. Jesus has provided all the things I will ever need.

27

Exceedingly Abundantly Above

"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us"

Ephesians 3:20.

God's ability to work in your behalf is unlimited. The Amplified Bible says "... God is able to [carry out His purpose] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think—infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams . . . "

Think of the highest, the richest, the best, and the most. God is able to do above it all. The important thing to know is that He is willing, God desires more and better for you than you could ever dream.

You get what you expect. Make it a practice to ask God for the greatest and the highest of all your desires. Then acknowledge that you expect exceedingly abundantly above what you have asked.

Most people don't have a problem dreaming too big. Usually the vision of the normal person is far below God's capacity to bless them. Ask God to expand your vision and increase your level of expectancy.

It is so true that there are no limitations with God. He knows no boundaries. What is impossible with man is always possible with God (Luke 18:27).

The fact that God wills and desires to do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think does not make it automatic. Every believer must believe and receive by faith. Stand on this promise for the superabundant blessings of God—they belong to you. Don't settle for "barely get-along" or "just enough." God's will is exceedingly abundantly above that.

I believe God is doing superabundantly above all I ask, hope, dream, or desire in every area of my life. I expect God's blessings to come on me continually.

28

With Signs Following

"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

"And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the Word with signs following. Amen"

Mark 16:15,20.

Jesus gave the command to go and preach the Gospel. The disciples were told to baptize those who would believe. He guaranteed that signs would follow: devils would be cast out, believers would speak with new tongues, no demon or deadly thing would harm them, and they would lay their hands on the sick to bring them healing.

The signs followed and thousands were freed as these bold believers took Jesus at His Word. They obeyed and the Spirit of God gave them power. They took Jesus' name and spoke the Word of God. It worked.

It is no different today for you. You too are a disciple, a dedicated student and follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. You too are anointed by God's Spirit. You also have the command to go tell the Good News and expect the signs to follow. The name of Jesus is still the same as it was 2,000 years ago.

The same results follow the same formula. As you do exactly as Jesus instructed, you too will see signs following. God is committed to confirming His Word. He doesn't confirm the doctrines of men or the philosophies of the world—He confirms His Word.

Rise up and let God fulfill His Word. You are the one to stretch forth your hand and speak with authority. God has brought you into the kingdom for just such a time as this (Esther 4:14). Don't be afraid or embarrassed. Be bold! Speak the Word!

I preach the Gospel with authority. I heal the sick and cast out devils in Jesus' name. The Word goes forth with power, and it is confirmed with signs following.

29

Reigning in Life

"For if by one man’s offense, death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ"

Romans 5:17.

Adam's sin brought the entire human race into bondage. This verse says that death reigned by one, meaning the disobedience of Adam. Not only did mankind gain physical death, but also spiritual death with all its awful traits.

Sickness, disease, fear, torment, and poverty began to reign over the lives of men. You see, death became lord or master of the human race. Satan's power dominated the hearts and minds of the people on planet earth. As verse 17 says, "death reigned." All that is associated with death held dominion over the human race.

When Jesus came, He undid the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). He destroyed them. Today the human race has no need to be under bondage. Jesus has broken the reign of spiritual death.

"Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage"

(Hebrews 2:14,15).

Follow this progression:

Satan—Sin—Death—Fear—Bondage Now look at this one:

Jesus—Righteousness—Life—Faith—Freedom.

The moment you put your faith in Jesus, you receive eternal life, the righteousness of God, and freedom. No longer are you under the reign of death, but now you "reign in life by one, Jesus Christ."

Kings and Priests

"And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

"And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."

Revelation 1:5,6.

You are loved by Jesus. He washed you from your sins in His own blood. No man will be cleaner than being washed in the blood of Jesus. All the old life with its past sins is cleansed away. You are clean!

Jesus has made us all kings. He has formed us into a kingdom. You see, the kingdom of God is in us. We have been given authority to use Jesus' name to accomplish God's will on earth.

You are an heir and a joint-heir with Jesus Christ (Romans 8:15,16). Royal blood is your life. You are a partaker of God's divine nature.

Furthermore, God has made you a priest. You are to go before God in behalf of men and go before men in behalf of God. God made you a priest. You are part of the kingdom of priests.

In the Old Testament, there were only certain anointed prophets and priests who could contact God and hear from Him directly. However, in the New Covenant, every believer is a priest. Every saved person has an anointing to serve as a priest. You do not need another person to go before God in your behalf. You go directly to the Father through the Son, Jesus Christ.

You are loosed and freed from all sin to live for God as His king and priest. Accept your office. Use your authority in prayer to bring God's will to pass on earth. Minister unto God so you will be fully equipped to share with others!

I am a king and a priest unto God. I have been washed in the blood of Jesus. I walk in the authority and in the anointing of God.

Heirs and Joint-Heirs

"The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

"And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together"

Romans 8:16,17.

You have the Spirit of Christ living inside you. He is the One who lets you know for certain that you are a child of God. There is no doubt or confusion—you know that you know that you know.

As a child of God, you have become an heir of God. An heir receives what is left to him in a will. Our will is the New Testament. The Word says that a will or testament does not go into effect until the testator dies. Our will (New Testament) went into effect at the death of Jesus Christ (remember the Last Supper with the disciples).

Not only did Jesus die that we might receive the inheritance, but He also arose from the dead to be executor of the will. Or, in other words, Jesus is the one who sees to it that we receive what is designated as ours by the will.

Everything in the New Testament is given to you as the will of God. All the promises and provisions mentioned are rightfully yours. You did nothing to earn or merit them—a rich relative just named you as an heir.

The blessing of being an heir of God expands with the phrase "joint-heir with Christ." Jesus, being the Son of God, is also an heir to all the Father has. Now the Word says you are a joint-heir or a co-heir with Jesus. Everything Jesus inherited as the Son of God is also your inheritance.

You have already been blessed far beyond anything imagined by man. Only God Himself could design such a marvelous will, with your name included in it. He has revealed this will to you for you to know you will never lack anything at any time.

Father, I thank You for loving me and including me in Your will. I am Your heir, and I am a joint-heir with Jesus Christ.

Mountain Mover

"And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

"For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith"

Mark 11:22,23.

You have the God-kind of faith. The moment you were born again, you received "the measure of faith" (Romans 12:3). In other places Jesus referred to faith as "a mustard seed" (Matthew 17:20). The faith you have now is capable of moving any mountain in your life. IT IS IN YOU NOW!!! YOU HAVE THE GOD-KIND OF FAITH.

Jesus said, "Whosoever shall say unto this mountain."

This means you are included since you are a whosoever. You speak directly to the mountain. Address it with authority. If the mountain is strife in the home or business, say, "Strife, in the name of Jesus, I command you to leave this place now. " Then lift your hands and begin to thank God for removing the problem (mountain).

You do believe that what you say comes to pass, for you know your authority. You know that Jesus regained authority through His death and resurrection (Matthew 28:18-20). You expect your words to be fulfilled because of your covenant with God. Doubt has no place in you, for faith has flooded your heart.

You were born again to rule and reign on this earth under the authority of Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17). Expect things to change as you speak, for God has given you the power to move mountains.

I am a mountain mover. Jesus lives in me. I have His nature, His name, His Word, His Spirit, and His life. I believe in my heart that what I say with my mouth comes to pass. I have what I say because I am led by the Spirit. No obstacle can stand against me. They are all moved in Jesus' name.

33

As He Is, So Are You

"Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world"

1 John 4:17.

The Word says you are as He is. You are made in the image of God. You are created in Jesus. You are identified with God by your nature for you have eternal life.

The day we see God, there will be no fear or torment because as He is, so are we. It will be like seeing your earthly father after being apart for a time. Although we don't see Him with the natural eye, our spirit bears witness that we are His children.

The people of this world fear the day of judgment. For a sinner, there is always an inner torment about the future. But you have boldness or confidence.

God's love is perfected in you by keeping His Word (1 John 2:5). The Word has revealed your standing with God. There is a right-relatedness or righteousness that belongs to every Christian. You are the righteousness of God for as He is, so are you. Jesus is righteous and everything He is, YOU ARE!!

Think on it. He is strong. You are strong. Say, ”I am strong in the Lord. " Of course, it is all in Jesus. But remember, Jesus is in you and you are in Him.

"But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit" (1

Corinthians 6:17). You have the Spirit of God in you. You are a partaker of the nature of Jesus Christ—as He is, so are you.

You can remember as a young child being told, ”Be like Jesus. " Well, now you are like Him. You reflect His glory and grace to those all around you. Accept your God-given likeness: "I am as He is."

Faith is merely a matter of accepting the laws of God. If God says it, believe it.

I am as Jesus is. I accept my life and position in Christ. What He has said about me is true. This Jesus-life is the greatest life in the world. He is in me now.

Perfected

"But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you"

1 Peter 5:10.

You have been called to eternal glory by Jesus. He has prayed to the Father that you might receive His glory (John 17:22).

You may be persecuted for your confession of Jesus Christ, but Jesus has already told you not to be surprised. He said, "In the world ye shall have tribulation" (John 16:33). Everyone may not pat you on the back for healing the sick and casting out devils. In essence, Jesus said not to worry about what others might say. "But be of good cheer; I have overcome the world" (John 16:33).

As Jesus overcame, you also have overcome by the power of the risen Christ in you.

You have the blessed assurance that you are being perfected, established, strengthened, and settled. One version of the Bible says that, “God will Himself give you mastery" (Knox).

The Amplified version says, "God will himself complete and make you what you ought to be, establish and ground you securely, and strengthen (and settle) you."

You can say with the Psalmist David, "The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me" (Psalm 138:8). You are "His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works” (Ephesians 2:10).

"And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ—right up to the time of His return—developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you" (Philippians 1:6, Amplified).

The Devil Touches You Not

"We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not"

1 John 5:18.

You are born of God. You have the divine life of Jesus in you. This holy presence of God's life is the power that will keep the wicked one from touching you.

God says that your righteousness is of Him. "No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper" (Isaiah 54:17).

You have the mighty shield of faith with which you can "quench all the fiery darts of the wicked" (Ephesians 6:16). All means all. Whatever the devil tries to throw at you is destroyed by the shield of faith.

"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" (James 4:7). You have the devil on the run. Submitting yourself to God means believing and obeying the Word of God.

God says you are kept by His power through faith (1 Peter 1:5). Believe it, and act like it. There is no place for fear or timidity because of what the devil is doing.

The Word says the devil cannot touch you when you keep yourself. You have made that decision. You do keep yourself in the love of God. You are patient and full of faith. The Spirit has anointed you with divine power.

Jesus gave you and every believer power over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19). You are commissioned to cast out devils (Mark 16:17).

Don't allow yourself to worry about the devil. Say what the Word says about the situation.

I am born of God. I keep myself and the wicked one does not touch me. I resist the devil and he flees from me. The shield of faith quenches every fiery dart. The devil runs from me in terror. I never worry about demonic oppression for I am kept by the power of God.

36

Free Indeed

"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed"

John 8:36.

You have been set free by Jesus Christ. Jesus gained absolute victory and total freedom for you when He was raised from the dead. The moment you received Jesus, this victory and freedom became yours. It is the knowledge of the truth that enables you to walk and live in freedom.

Declare your independence. It is time to proclaim your emancipation. You have a bill of rights given to you by your heavenly Father through His Son, Jesus Christ. He has set you "free indeed." This means entirely, totally, completely without any question, doubt, or objection. It has been done.

You are free from the powers of Satan. You can say as Jesus said, "The prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me" (John 14:30). You give no place to the devil (Ephe-sians 4:27).

"Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. Our help is in the Lord, who made heaven and earth"

(Psalm 124:7,8).

Glory to God! You are free. The power of the enemy was broken when Jesus was raised from the dead. There is no snare of Satan, sin, or fear that can hold you.

Not only are you free from the powers of darkness, but you are also freed into the kingdom of light. You are free to love. You are free to give. You are free to enjoy abundant life. You are free to do acts of righteousness.

The Amplified version of the Bible reads, "So if the Son liberates you—makes you free men—then you are really and unquestionably free" (John 8:36).

I will never again be enslaved by sin. I am free from all the dominion of darkness. Jesus has made me absolutely free in every area of my life.

Overcomer

"And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death"

Revelation 12:11.

You have power over the devil. You have authority over the powers of darkness. God's ability and might have been granted to you.

There is absolutely no reason to be intimidated by evil. As the power of God fell on the day of Pentecost releasing the believers to boldly testify about Jesus, the Word says, "and fear came upon every soul" (Acts 2:43). It was the fear of God, the respect of the holy.

You have made a commitment by putting your shoulder to the plow and not looking back. "You love not your life unto the death" (Revelation 12:11).

You have died with Christ, so it is no longer you that is living, but Christ who is living in you.

God has given you two things in this Scripture to overcome the devil:

1.    The blood of the Lamb.

2.    The word of your testimony.

Satan is the accuser of the brethren. The blood of Jesus is your guarantee of God's mercy that gives you complete coverage on all your needs. The blood stops all accusations because it cleanses you from all sin. It is faith which enables you to rise above condemnation.

The word of your testimony is the confession of your faith in God's Word. It is the Word spoken out loud. It is the acknowledging of the Word of God as the truth for your life.

I am an overcomer. I am born of God. I have God's nature, ability, and power to overcome every obstacle I face. I cannot be defeated, for my nature is that of an overcomer. The blood of Jesus cleanses me from all sin. I am a blood-bought overcomer.

38

Wise, Right, Clean and Free

"But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption.”

"That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord"

1 Corinthians 1:30,31.

Our boasting (glory) is not in ourselves—it is in Christ Jesus. Jesus is wisdom. He is the very righteousness of God. He is the sanctified one and the sanctifier. He is the redeemer and the redemption. Jesus is all in all. He is everything!

There is no room for you to boast in how wise you are. You boast in the wisdom of God. You see—it is all a gift from God— everything is yours by grace.

The Word says you are "in Christ Jesus" by virtue of the miracle of the new birth. You are a new creation "in Christ Jesus" (2 Corinthians 5:17).

Not only are you "in Christ," but also Christ is in you (Colossians 1:27). Jesus has come and made His abode (dwelling place) with us. God lives inside you. You are the temple of the Holy Ghost (1 Corinthians 6:19,20).

It is plain to see Christ is in you, and you are in Christ. You have given your life to Jesus, and Jesus has given His life to you.

God made Jesus to be your wisdom through the miraculous union that took place when you were saved. Jesus is your wisdom. He is your righteousness, your sanctification, and your redemption. These four things are found in Christ, and He is in you. Therefore, all of these things are in you.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

You have wisdom. Begin to say, "Jesus is my wisdom. " You are righteous. Say it, "Jesus is my righteousness." You are redeemed, and you boldly declare, "I am redeemed. " In the same manner, Jesus is your sanctification. It is by faith, not works. I am sanctified through the Lord Jesus Christ.

39

Understanding

"Then opened He their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures"

Luke 24:25.

One of the greatest hindrances to progress and growth is lack of knowledge and understanding. We need to know and also understand what we know.

God gives understanding by His Spirit (Job 32:8). It comes as revelation to the heart of man. The two men on the road to Emmaus had heard Jesus talk about the Scriptures. But then He opened their understanding, and the truth came alive to them.

ABSOLUTE VICTORY is yours because God opens your understanding to know what Jesus has done for you.

You may have thought God didn't want you to know the things He has for you, but He does.

"But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him" (1 Corinthians 2:9). If we stopped right here and did not read the next verse, we could always plead ignorance and be justified. However, the next verse changes the scene.

"But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God"

(1 Corinthians 2:10).

God has given us revelation by His Spirit "that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God"

(1 Corinthians 2:12).

"Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things"

(2 Timothy 2:7).

The Spirit guides me into all truth. The eyes of my understanding are enlightened. I have understanding in all things. The Word is alive to me because I understand the deep things of God.

Love Never Fails

"Charity never faileth"

1 Corinthians 13:8 (KJV).

"Love never disappears"

(Moffatt).

"Love shall never pass away"

(Coneybeare).

You are born of love because you are born of God (1 John 4:7,8). The love of God has been shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5).

God is love. The very essence of God Himself has been poured into you. It is not a matter of works—it is God's grace. Accept it! Act on it!

God's love in you makes you victorious over hatred. Hate cannot rise in you and eat as a cancer. You are immunized from the multiple diseases related to hate. Jealousy cannot grow in your heart. It dies on impact with the love of God in your heart.

All of the power of God is wrapped up in His love. There is a limitless source of power in your life because you walk in love. You not only have love in you, but you also choose to obey the law of love. That means you act in love.

The perfect love of God has cast fear out of you (1 John 4:18). You know that God's love protects you at all times. It is ever on the alert. You are not afraid someone will offend you, because forgiveness is natural to you.

There is no fear in your life since nothing can separate you from the love of God. God's love keeps on operating regardless of circumstances. Unlike city lighting systems, it cannot be knocked out by a bad storm. Love prevails in adversity.

Don't ever forget it—you have the capacity to love in all situations because God has put His love inside you. Your confession of the fact that you are a love person strengthens the dominion of love in you.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I am born of love. God's love fills my life. I walk in love. Therefore I am patient, kind, gentle, longsuffering. Love in me never fails. Since love does not fail, I do not fail. I forgive quickly for I am a forgiver. Loving people is a way of life for me.

The Battle Is Not Yours

"...Thus saith the Lord unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s"

2 Chronicles 20:15.

The people of Judah were in trouble. It is not totally bad for a believer to be in trouble; that is, if his trust is in God. "The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble ..." (Nahum 1:7). But as you trust in God, it does not matter how much trouble appears, for God will deliver you.

The armies of Moab, Ammon, and mount Seir had come against the land to destroy the inhabitants. It was a bleak time, but the people of God began to seek God through fasting and prayer. As the Spirit came upon a man named Jahaziel, he began to speak these words: "The battle is not yours, but God’s."

Thank God! The words the Spirit spoke hundreds of years ago are just as true today. The battle is the Lord's. He has already fought and won the victory for every believer. Begin to rejoice, for you have heard from God.

As the children of Judah began to praise God, the Lord caused their enemies to fight one another. It was a miracle because the people of Judah stood and watched their enemies destroy themselves.

God's formula for success is still the same. Don't be afraid or dismayed because trouble may appear. It is not your battle. God has committed Himself to fight in your behalf. He will contend with those who contend with you (Isaiah 49:25).

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I am not afraid of any situation. I will not be dismayed at any time. My battles are not mine, but the Lord's. God fights all my battles. I am always victorious because God always wins. I refuse to worry about troubles or tribulations. God doesn't change. Regardless of the circumstances, God always puts me over.

42

Stand Still—See God’s Salvation

"Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you... "

2 Chronicles 20:17.

After Judah had been surrounded by enemies, they sought God for help. The word had come, "The battle is not yours, but God’s." Specific instructions have now come; there will be no need to fight. Hear this loud and clear: many battles are lost by Christians trying to fight themselves.

God delights in demonstrating His salvation in our lives. Accept it, and begin to rest. This was not God's will just for one brief period in history. It is His will for all His people all the time.

If you face a situation that seems impossible, just start rejoicing. You're about to see the salvation of the Lord. Great faith is exercised by rest. Faith really is the easy way. It just looks hard from the natural man's viewpoint.

Take, for instance, the Roman centurion whom Jesus said exercised great faith. All he asked was for Jesus to "speak the word only" (Matthew 8:8). It was simple and easy. Jesus would do the work. The centurion believed. For Jesus, it was no great chore. This is God's way for us to live.

Set yourself in faith in God's Word. Stand still. Realize that standing still sometimes requires more faith than moving about. Standing still indicates your trust is in God's ability and not your own. "For we which have believed do enter into rest..."

(Hebrews 4:3).

You have entered into your rest. It is the life of faith. You are seeing the salvation of the Lord because you have set yourself to stand still.

Whatever I do prospers. Wherever I go, I succeed. The Lord fights all my battles. I live the life of rest. The salvation of the Lord is ever before me. The enemy is destroyed before my eyes. Circumstances change as I stand still before the Lord.

43

Sing and Praise to Victory

"... Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.

"And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the Lord; for his mercy endureth for ever.

"And when they began to sing and praise, the Lord set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten"

2 Chronicles 20:20-22.

There is so much for you to receive from this great story. God's words had come, "The battle is not yours, but God’s." The people were instructed to "stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord."

God further admonishes His people to believe and they will be established and they will prosper. Believing God is the key to all prosperity and success. Salvation comes by believing God. Healing and the Baptism of the Spirit both come from believing God. Believing God is the first step in seeing miracles.

God often gives us something to do as an expression of our faith in Him. In this case, He directed the people to begin to worship and praise Him for His mercy. Singers were designated to go out before the people and magnify God.

Singing praises to God is one of the highest expressions of faith. You can praise God before you see the answer with your physical eyes. God's Word has already given you a clear picture of victory. It is yours now. You live the life of singing and praise. God's Word never changes. Your life becomes a melody of praise.

Father, I give You praise for ABSOLUTE VICTORY! I rejoice in Your triumph over my enemies. I thank You now for the solutions to all the problems I face. Every day is a praise to You, Jesus. You are my everything!

44

There Is Liberty

"... where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty"

2 Corinthians 3:17.

Jesus said, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set liberty them that are bruised.”

"To preach the acceptable year of the Lord,"

Luke 4:18,19.

You have received Jesus. It is by Him that you are healed, delivered, and set free. Liberty is yours now!

In relation to the Spirit of the Lord, Jesus said, "... how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?" (Luke 11:13). If you have never received the Holy Spirit, ask and you shall receive.

The liberty the Spirit gives begins in the inner person. Your Spirit is set free first of all to worship the Father. There is liberty in prayer and singing.

Next, your soul is liberated to move in harmony with God's will. There is no longer a battle to try and obey God; you are free to serve Him with joy.

Your body is likewise set free by the Spirit of God. It no longer tries to run your life according to the dictates of the flesh, but now it delights in submitting to your spirit.

This is life in the Spirit. It is liberty from poverty, sickness, fear, oppression, and sin. The Spirit is in you, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. You are liberated!

I am free. I know the truth, and the truth has made me free. The Spirit of the Lord has liberated me. No fear can exist in me. Disease has no place in my body. Sin has no dominion over me. The Spirit of the Lord has liberated me in my spirit, my soul, and my body. I am free indeed!

45

I Have Overcome

"These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world"

John 16:33.

Jesus did not try to deceive His disciples. He told them exactly what they would face if they followed Him. He said, "Ye shall have tribulation." However, it is important to note that Jesus did not dwell on that aspect. He said it because it was fact, but He went on to say, "Be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."

In spite of what you may face, Jesus encourages you to cheer up. Rejoice and be glad. Nothing you face will be able to overcome Jesus. He said it: "I have overcome the world." He did not do it for Himself. He did it for you. His victory is your victory!

Instead of fear and anxiety, you have faith and peace. Jesus said, "In me ye might have peace." Your peace is not in this world. It has nothing to do with the amount of money or life insurance you possess. Your security is in the assurance of God's Holy Word. God's peace "passeth all understanding" (Philippians 4:7).

If Jesus has overcome the world, then you are a world overcomer. Jesus lives in you.

If Jesus said you would have peace, then peace is yours. You are not worried about anything. Peace just oozes out of you.

If Jesus said to be of good cheer, then you are. You are joyful. You cannot be robbed of your happiness and joy.

You are peaceful. You are full of joy. You are an overcomer. In the midst of the worst tribulation or difficulty.

God's Word has caused you to stand immovable.

I am in Jesus, and Jesus is in me! I have overcome since Jesus has overcome. The peace of God rules my life. Joy dominates my life. I am an overcomer. I always triumph in Jesus.

You Know All Things

"But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things"

1 John 2:20.

You have been anointed by the Spirit of God to know the truth. The unction or anointing of the Holy Ghost gives revelation knowledge of the things of God.

You know God personally. You not only know Him, but you know about Him. He has given you His Spirit that you might know all there is to know about Him.

As Jesus walked on the road to Emmaus, He talked to the two men of the Scriptures concerning Himself. Inside a home on the way, the Bible says: "Then opened he their understanding that they might understand the scriptures" (Luke 24:45). It happened, and the light of revelation knowledge flooded their understanding.

The anointing of the Spirit has opened your understanding so you can comprehend the deep mysteries of the kingdom of God.

Jesus said, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32). The anointing of the Spirit of God is upon you to give you the full knowledge of the truth. You hold the keys to freedom.

"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you"

(John 14:26).

The Holy Ghost is in you to teach you all things concerning the kingdom of God. You have all the advantages. You have the best teacher there is. Whatever you will need to know, He will teach you.

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

I am anointed by the Spirit of God. He teaches me everything I need to know. I don't have to say, ”I don't know," for the anointing of the Spirit lets me know. I see and understand the truth. The Spirit leads me into all truth.

47

Jesus Christ—Always the Same

"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever"

Hebrews 13:8.

God never changes. He is eternally consistent. You can stake your life upon the nature and character of God. Since God has always been victorious, you can count on Him always being victorious in days ahead. "For I am the Lord, I change not ..." (Malachi 3:6).

Since God is victorious and He never changes, then He is absolutely victorious. Defeat is not even a part of God. He is completely successful in all areas. This is good news. You are united with the life of God. It is your privilege to partake of this same consistency since you are one with Jesus.

Most new Christians who have not been taught the Word of God live the "roller coaster life." They go up and down moment by moment with the obstacles and trials that face them. Many who do not go on to the meat of the Word think that the "roller coaster experience" is normal Christian living and that all believers live the same way. Thank God, the truth is getting out! You can live a constant life of victory. Your constancy is based on God's record. Since He never changes, you can make up your mind to stay with Him and not change either.

You never move away from your position of continual triumph and victory because of what Jesus has done. Since Jesus never fails and you are tied up with Him, you never submit to failure. You steadfastly declare that Jesus puts you over the top. He gives you glorious victory. He moves the mountains that have come your way. You don't get disturbed when circumstances change—Jesus Christ is still the same— YESTERDAY, TODAY, and FOREVER (Hebrews 13:8).

Since God never changes, I don't change my position of victory. I always triumph! In Christ, I am consistent, constant, and steadfast.

48

Far from Oppression

"In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression: for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee:”

Isaiah 54:14.

God says, "You shall be. ” He believes in you and His power to work in you. You can believe in yourself because God believes in you. Since He believes you will be established in righteousness, then you can believe it also.

Righteousness is right standing with God. If you are in right standing, then there is no condemnation and no guilt. You didn't earn righteousness. You just received it by faith. "For he hath made him to be sin for us who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him" (2 Corinthians 5:21).

You are righteous by faith in Jesus Christ.

God does not condemn you—you are forgiven.

Guilt has no right to oppress you.

The accuser of the brethren has no place to put you down because God has declared you righteous. "Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth"

(Romans 8:33).

No wonder you are far from oppression! It wouldn't dare get close to God's righteousness.

You have no fear in you "... if God be for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31).

Nothing can possibly overcome God, and He is on your side. He is with you, guarding and protecting you!

Fear has no place in your life. You are established, fully settled in God's righteousness. It has built a fortress around you to keep out torment and oppression.

"And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all the nations of the earth:

"And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God"

Deuteronomy 28:1,2.

You have made the decision to follow Jesus. You have chosen God as your Father. Now you can trust God to fulfill His part and enable you to walk in obedience. It is all by grace— God's giving you the desire and the ability to do His will. You can now count on His unearned favor.

You can believe that you are willing and obedient. "If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land"

(Isaiah 1:19). The decision has been settled, and the course of your life has been set. You have put your hand to the plow, and you are not looking back (Luke 9:62).

The blessings are yours now. God said "if" you have met the condition, expect the goodness and mercy of God to follow you. You have been set above all the nations of the earth.

You are blessed above all people. The blessings are overtaking you. You are blessed in the city and in the field (Deuteronomy 28:3).

You are blessed coming and going (Deuteronomy 28:6).

Your enemies flee before you (Deuteronomy 28:7).

"Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me bless his holy name.

"Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

“Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

"Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

"Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s"

Psalm 103:1-5.

You are blessed. God, your Father, has loaded you with benefits not available to this world. They are pleasures that come only to those who are children of God's kingdom.

God has forgiven you of all your sins. There is no condemnation, guilt, shame, or punishment. The past is forgotten —your sins are gone forever.

Jesus, the Great Physician, has healed all your diseases. No more cancer, ulcers, or heart failure. Divine life and health pulsate through your body.

Abundant life is your daily portion. You have been redeemed from destruction. Calamity is a thing of the past. It may happen all around, but it will not come "nigh you." Disaster is off limits to your household. You have supernatural security, 24-hour service, provided by the Trinity.

Lovingkindness and mercy crown your life. Anger, strife, animosity, torment, and worry are gone. God has filled you with Himself.

Thank God for the good things. Jesus went about "Doing good" (Acts 10:38). Every "good gift" comes from the Father (James 1:17). You have a good Father who has already blessed you with good things!

Prosperous and Successful

"This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success"

Joshua 1:8.

The Father wants you to be prosperous and successful. The world has its ideas about prosperity and success—they are only counterfeits. God's prosperity and success cover the spirit, soul, and body.

Provision has been made so you are strong spiritually. Eternal life fills your being. There is no emptiness or fear in your inner man. The life forces flow out of your heart—love, joy, and peace. You are satisfied with the living water.

Your mind has been renewed—oh, the joy of pure, clean, and holy thoughts. You are no longer oppressed with vile imaginations and agitating illusions. You think clearly and accurately. You have direct access to the source of all knowledge. Your mind is unlimited.

Your body is whole—free of sickness and disease. You have the strength of God. You run and you do not grow weary (Isaiah 40:31).

The Word has done it for you. You eat it as your daily bread. It is your meditation. The Word is the topic of your conversation. Jesus is truly Lord of your life. He abides in you, and His Word dwells in you richly (John 15:7; Col. 3:16).

Prosperity and success are the by-products of living in God. They are the result of the Word being first place. They are the rewards—the goal is God Himself. Jesus is the object of your love and obedience. Prosperity and success are yours because the kingdom is FIRST.

Jesus Has All Power

"And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying,

All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth"

Matthew 28:18.

Since Jesus has all power in heaven and earth, you are fearless. Jesus lives in you! He has all power, all authority—in heaven and in the earth. The devil has no power or authority. Ignorance of Jesus' triumph at the resurrection has held millions in slavery. You have the truth—GO TELL THE WORLD.

Through His death, Jesus destroyed the one that had the power of death; that is, the devil (Hebrews 2:14).

The word "destroyed" in Hebrews 2:14 is also translated, "paralyzed, brought to nought, and defeated. ” "And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it" (Colossians 2:15).

Jesus disarmed Satan and his demon forces. He stripped them of their authority, power, and dominion. He made an open, public display of their defeat. You are a Christian! You have every reason to walk in absolute victory here and now in this life!

Jesus said, "I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and death"

(Revelation 1:18).

Jesus has the keys of hell and of death. Satan can no longer hold you in bondage. Fear and death cannot dominate you.

YOU DOMINATE THE DEVIL! You command unclean spirits to leave. You set the captives free. You heal the sick. You deliver the oppressed. Nothing can stop you. You have the authority and power of Jesus Christ—the King of kings and

Lord of lords.

Jesus lives in me. He has all authority. I exercise His authority and set men free. I heal the sick. I cast out devils. I deliver the oppressed. I proclaim liberty to the captives, and THEY ARE SET FREE.

Perfect Love

"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love"

1 John 4:18.

The moment you were born again, you were filled with the love of God (Romans 5:5). We know that "love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God" (1 John 4:7).

Love is your nature. God is love, and God dwells in you. Therefore, you have love in you. The new creation is made in the likeness and image of love.

Obedience to God through keeping His Word causes the love inside you to mature and develop. "But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him" (1 John 2:5).

You are a doer of the Word. You have made the decision to obey God at all costs. Whatever God desires is your delight. You are willing and obedient.

Love is your way. Hate and anger are no longer a part of you. You forgive when others slander your name and twist your words. You return kindness to those who strike at you to destroy your happiness. Jesus is truly Lord of your life, and love dominates everything you do.

This God-kind of love in you has driven out fear. You are not afraid of sickness, poverty, or sin. You know your Father has provided a perfect redemption from these.

You no longer fear people because love has made you consistent. Your response is always the same whether they hate you or admire you. You no longer worry about what others think.

I am born of love. Love fills my very being. The fruit of the Spirit in me is love. Perfect love has cast out all fear. No worry or anxiety can come into my life because God's love reigns supreme. I am fearless and loving in every circumstance.

Every Good Thing

"For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly"

Psalm 84:11.

You are the righteousness of God, and you walk uprightly. For you, there is no other way to walk. You are totally committed to Jesus. You are sold out to Jesus. God has promised to withhold no good thing from you.

Your Father is so loving. He has given you everything that pertains to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Jesus Christ (2 Peter 1:3).

Jesus came and gave you abundant life (John 10:10). He is the Good Shepherd that leads you into green pastures. Your cup runs over. You have more than enough of everything you need.

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning"

(James 1:17).

You are blessed with every spiritual blessing (Ephesians 1:3). God supplies all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

You are free to be a blessing to others. You do not even need to think about yourself. The kingdom is first, and "all these things" are added to you (Matthew 6:33).

There is no pressure or worry if this or that will come—you already have it in Jesus. You have everything since you received Christ into your life. Your whole life is now devoted to others— giving and sharing the blessings of God.

The Lord is my Shepherd, and I shall not lack. No good thing is withheld from me because I walk uprightly. The truth has set me free. I want for nothing. I have everything in Christ Jesus. The blessings of God have overtaken me. My cup runs over. All of my needs are supplied.

Shall Not Want

"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want"

Psalm 23:1.

This is your confession: "The Lord Jesus Christ is my Shepherd.” He said, "I am the good shepherd" (John 10:14). The Good Shepherd came to give you abundant life. Abundance means "More than adequate."

The first miracle Jesus performed, He turned water into wine to provide 150 gallons or more for a wedding party. Think of it! Jesus made 150 gallons of wine for a group of less than 100 people in all probability—at the end of the feast.

One day Jesus borrowed Peter's boat to use while teaching. He then told Peter to launch out into the deep, and let his nets down for a catch of fish. The results—a boat sinking with a load of fish. Whatever Jesus did, it was always more than enough.

Remember the loaves and fish—basketfuls left over. Jesus is the Good Shepherd. You are being supplied according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). There is more than enough in heaven.

You have fullness of joy—joy unspeakable and full of glory. This joy no man can take from you (Psalm 16:11; 1 Peter 1:8; John 16:22).

You have God's love filling your life. It is love that passes knowledge (Romans 5:5; Ephesians 3:19).

God satisfies your mouth with good things (Psalm 103:5). In fact, He will withhold no good thing from you (Psalm 84:11).

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

The Lord is my Shepherd. I shall not want. God supplies all of my needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. I lack for nothing. I have more than enough of everything I need for my spirit and body. Jesus is my everything. In Him I have life more abundantly.

56

Whatever You Do Shall Prosper

"Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

"But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

"And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper"

Psalm 1:1-3.

You have made the decision to walk in God's counsel—the Word. You have turned from sin and chosen to make love your aim. You delight in the Word and meditate in it day and night. Therefore, the blessings of Psalm 1:3 are upon you.

You are like a tree planted by rivers of living water. The whole world may be in a drought, but your roots go down deep into the rivers of living water. You are not affected by the world and its crisis, just as a tree planted by the river is not affected by the long, hot summer.

You bring forth the fruit of answered prayer because you abide in the Lord, and His Word abides in you (John 15:7,8).

Whatever you do prospers. Everything you touch is blessed. Your steps are guided by the Lord, and He gives you the desires of your heart.

You are an obvious testimony of God's goodness and faithfulness. While others fail and faint under the trials, tribulations, and persecution in this life, you continue to be blessed and to be a blessing.

God's Word works! You have discovered the key to life—God's Word.

I am a doer of the Word. I am blessed in my deeds. I meditate in the Word day and night, and I am like a tree planted by rivers of living water. Whatever I do prospers because God is involved in my life. My life is continually bearing good fruit.

Greater Is He

'Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world"

1 John 4:4.

You are filled with the life of God. You have partaken of His very nature. As a child of God, you are an heir of all God is and all He has. You have already overcome because the Overcomer dwells in you.

Jesus is greater than the devil. He is greater than sin, sickness, or poverty. Jesus is greater than any weapon formed against you.

For Joshua, God was greater than the walls of Jericho (Joshua 6:20).

For David, God was greater than Goliath (1 Samuel 17:49).

For the three Hebrew boys, God was greater than the fiery furnace (Daniel 3:26).

For Moses, God was greater than the Egyptian army and the Red Sea (Exodus 14:21-27).

For Noah, God was greater than the flood (Genesis 6:17,18).

For Daniel, God was greater than lions (Daniel 6:22).

For Paul and Silas, God was greater than chains and prison doors (Acts 16:26).

For Bartimaeus, Jesus was greater than blindness (Mark 10:52).

For the woman caught in adultery, Jesus was greater than her sin (John 8:11).

For the demoniac, Jesus was greater than the demons (Mark 5:8-13).

For the leper, Jesus was greater than leprosy (Matthew 8:3).

For the disciples, Jesus was greater than the storm (Matthew 8:26).

For Lazarus, Jesus was greater than death (John 11:43,44).

For YOU—JESUS IS GREATER THAN THE DEVIL AND EVERYTHING HE HAS!

Boldly Make This Confession of Faith Aloud

Greater is Jesus in me than the devil in the world. I am filled with the spirit of power. Divine life flows through me. No weapon formed against me prospers. I have overcome. I am victorious. Jesus is greater than all the works of the devil. I am fearless in Jesus.
