THE BELIEVER'S
CONFESSION
A Vow to Glorify
Our Father
I purposely, with all
sincerity, refuse to
stagger at the Word
of my Heavenly Father
and God through unbelief,
fear and overwhelming
doubt.
I am God’s own workmanship
created in Christ Jesus
unto good works, which
He has foreordained
me to walk.
I am a Believer; a new
creation person possessed
with the mind of Christ-born
again of the water and
the Spirit, filled with
the Holy Ghost.
I will not be conformed
to this world, but be
transformed by the renewing
of my mind. Truly of
His fullness, I have
received, and grace
for grace.
I now pledge to cast
down every rogue, faith-destroying
imagination that exalts
itself against the knowledge
of God.
Daily, I purpose to
keep His Words in the
midst of my heart so
that in everything I
do, say or think, will
be an affirmation of
my faith and love for
Him who first loved
me.
I therefore, will entertain
no corrupt thoughts
or vile imaginations,
and let no corrupt words
proceed out of my mouth
- only words of edification,
exhortation, and comfort,
that God in all things
might be glorified in
the Son through my life.
Amen.

CALENDAR
VISION AND REALITY
Isaiah 35:7 AMP “And the burning sand and the mirage shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; in the haunt of jackals, where they lay resting, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.”Amen.
We always have visions before a thing is made real. When we realize that although the vision is real, it is not real in us, then that is the time satan comes in with his temptations, and we are likely to say it is no use to go on. Instead of the vision becoming real, there has come the valley of humiliation.
God gives us the vision, then He takes us down to the valley to batter us into the shape of the vision, and it is in the valley that so many of us faint and give way. Every vision will be made real if we will have patience.
Think of the enormous leisure of God! He is never in a hurry. We are always in such a frantic hurry. In the light of the glory of the vision we go forth to do things, but the vision is not real in us yet; and God has to take us into the valley, and put us through fires and floods to batter us into shape, until we get to the place where He can trust us with the reality.
Every since we first had the vision God has been at work, getting us into the shape of the ideal, and over and over again we escape from His hand and try to batter ourselves into our own shape…to do it our own way. The vision is not a castle in the sky, but a vision of what God wants us to be.
Let Him put you on His wheel and whirl you as He likes, and as sure as God is God and you are you, you will turn out exactly in accordance with the vision. Don't lose heart in the process. If you ever get hold of the vision of God, you may try as you like to be satisfied on a lower level, but God will never let you.
