CONFESSION BRINGS US THE BLESSINGS OF
SALVATION.
For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth confession is
made unto salvation (Romans 10:10).
Our opening verse says you believe with your
heart, and are made right with God; however,
with the mouth, confession (Greek: homologeo)
is made unto salvation. It is your confession that
activates and causes the blessings of salvation to
be actualized in your life, so don’t be quiet.
Speak the Word always.
There’re those who say Christianity is of the
heart, so you don’t have to say anything; just
keep it in your heart, to yourself. Well, that’s not
Christianity! You can’t know the Word of God and
be quiet; more so, the Bible says, “with the
mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
There’re tremendous blessings in salvation, and
to enjoy them, you’ve got to be a talker; a Word-
talker.
Salvation is a big word; it encapsulates all the
beautiful results of the redemptive work of
Christ: salvation, divine life, healing and health,
freedom, liberty, preservation, deliverance, etc.
These are all in the blessings of salvation; they
all came in one package. If perhaps, you’ve been
in a mess or have found yourself in some
predicament, what you need to do is to confess
the Word, and by your confessions, you catapult
yourself to the glorious liberty of the sons of
God.
It doesn’t matter how deep in the dungeon you
find yourself; it doesn’t matter how
overwhelming the problem is, confess the Word
and you’ll come out victoriously. You might want
to ask, “How do I confess the Word?” Confession
is your response in agreement with the Word.
For example, you may feel headaches, but what
do you say in such a situation? Someone may
say, “O, my head is really aching”; that’s the
wrong confession. You ought to say, “I have the
life of God in me, therefore, every fibre of my
being, from the crown of my head to the soles
of my feet, is vitalized by the Spirit of God that
lives in me! I’m healthy and strong.”
You’re not an ordinary person; you’re born of
God; you’re born of His Word, and must
therefore live by the Word. We’re victorious by
the Word on our lips—the words we speak in
agreement with God’s Word.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for my glorious life and
heritage of greatness in Christ; thank you for
making me one with you, and granting me the
grace to live victoriously every day, in health,
prosperity, joy, liberty and safety. The power of
your Word, and the Holy Spirit in me, puts me
over in every situation, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy
mouth.
Mark 11:23 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.
