Help Me Write A Confessional – Everyone Jump In

Posted on September 15th, 2010 in Faith by Fred McKinnon

Lately I’ve been having these thoughts about how important God’s Word is.  Specifically, it’s importance in shaping the truth of who we are, and who God has called us to be.

While the world slaughters us with messages of defeat and anything but holiness, God’s Word builds us up.

So, I’m asking everyone (yes, that means you, lurkers!) to participate and help me build a Bible-filled confessional.

I’ll start below … then, you add your confession.  The only rule is that the confession has to be edifying, and it has to come from Scripture.  (The Scripture reference would be great).

So – refresh the page to make sure you have the most recent comment, and then add yours.  We will build on each other’s comments … so read through the previous ones and try to make your confessional relevant and flowing with the previous comment.

Here we go:

1.  Today I choose to be confident in God’s love and protection for me.  His promise to me says “in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.”.  (Romans 8:35).

*NEXT … your turn, add to that.

    Today I choose to combat temptation the way Jesus did – by committing the Word to my memory – and unsheathing His sword against the forces that come against me – and dying to myself so that I may live in Him! “I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.” Psalm 119-11

    Let’s be bold in our day and in our resolutions!
    (This says nothing against any comment before me – just charging and challenging those who come after!)

    The King deserves nothing less.

    God has my life in the palm of His hand, and my soul can take comfort in that. No matter what happens – no matter what lie or deception may pop up – there is one solid truth that will never change. I am anchored to the promise of God. An anchor that is rooted beyond the veil.

    (Hebrews 6:18-19)

      Today I will CHOOSE to trust Him for “He who has promised is faithful”.

    God, help me not to rush about and worry about temporal things today, let me “Be still and know that [you] are God.” Psalm 46:10

    Today I choose to hold to my confession of God’s Word because of what the blood of Jesus has done for me and because “He who promised is faithful.”

    “Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.” Hebrews 10:19-23

    Lord, I resolve in my heart to establish and maintain You as my “first love” (Rev 2:4). I posture myself to hold a fixed gaze on the “author and perfecter of my faith” (Heb 12:2), being “transformed into His likeness with ever-increasing glory” (2 Cor 3:18). In so doing, that I may come to “know the love that surpasses knowledge” (Eph 3:19) and pour it out onto all that I meet today.
