He backs up His Word
Hebrews 3:1 (NKJV)
Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus.
We have spoken a lot about our mouths and the words we choose to speak. My final thought is concerning your confession. When you make His words and promises your property and speak them out as your confession, powerful things will start to happen in and around you.
God has given us His Word to use, and when we allow it to dwell richly in our hearts and be found daily upon our lips, it is then that we begin to see the manifestation of His promises in our lives and situations. Why? Simple, He is faithful and backs up His Word! He will not back up our insecure soul-based statements. He will not back up words of doubt, unbelief and fear. He will not back up whining or pleading, but He will always respond to His Word richly implanted in the heart and spoken out with faith.
Be challenged today, Champion, to be ever placing His Word in your heart and on your lips. God watches over His Word to perform it and promises it will not return void but will accomplish what it was sent for. When we confess His Word concerning our salvation He is the High Priest of that confession and backs it up, saving us completely; but also when we speak His promises concerning other areas of our lives He is the High Priest of those confessions too, and will back them up also.
Here's the timeless recipe of faith: don't look at the size of the problem, but rather find God's promise concerning it and begin to confess those promises over it. Don't listen to or speak out the whimpers of your soul but let faith arise that Jesus remains the High Priest of the (God-inspired) words we speak, just as He promised. Find that "God-word", Champion, that fits your situation and begin to confess that in faith and watch what happens.
