GOOD THINGS - In Me In Christ
By Don Gossett
"That the communication of your faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus" Philemon 6.
FIRST: God has shown me here a great faith secret: my faith will become effective (gets things from God), by my acknowledging of every good thing which is in me in Christ Jesus.
SECOND: Acknowledging is confessing or affirming the good things which are in me in Christ Jesus. This harmonizes with Romans 10:10 - "What I confess I possess."
THIRD: These good things I acknowledge that are within me, are not my own attainments, but what I have "in Christ Jesus." "All things are mine in Christ." "Of His fullness have I received."
FOURTH: One of the devil's subtle devices, of which I am not ignorant, lest he get an advantage of me, is to cause me to focus attention upon my past sins, my failures, my weaknesses, my mistakes. I will resist the devil and he will flee from me, by "thus saith the Lord."
FIFTH: My faith is set on fire, by acknowledging every good thing which is in me in Christ Jesus. It is acknowledging my possessions in Christ. What shall I acknowledge? That I am who God says I am. That I have what God says I have. That I can do what God says I can do!
SIXTH: I know that I go the level of my confession. If it is a negative confession, acknowledging only the bad, rather than the "good things in me in Christ," I will go the level of defeat, failure, weakness and lack. I refuse to do that! I shall acknowledge the GOOD THINGS I possess in Christ, and thereby my faith is dynamic, effective, on fire, gets things from God!
SEVENTH: Effective faith I now have, by acknowledging every good thing in me in Christ Jesus! Hallelujah!
Enjoy God's best. Say it often: A SMILE IS MY STYLE!
