Romans 10:9-10 With the mouth confession is made to: Is made to what? The Lordship of Jesus. You are confessing out your mouth Jesus is your Lord! You are confessing that Jesus is Lord of your life, and by doing that we let Jesus dominate our daily life. The Lordship of Jesus
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:9-10 With the mouth confession is made to: Is made to what? The Lordship of Jesus. You are confessing out your mouth Jesus is your Lord! You are confessing that Jesus is Lord of your life, and by doing that we let Jesus dominate our daily life. What we want, or what I want is for the Lord to dominate my life in every way. It seems that I have neglected to make him Lord over my life in every area. What areas are there to make Jesus Lord over?
“You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; And light will shine on your ways.” Job 22:28 With our confession of the Lordship of Jesus, we are confessing our faith. It is a confession of our Salvation. It’s not just for our sake only, it is for/to let satan know who has ruled us. It is for the world around us. “Few people have joy until they make a public confession. Public confession is the break with the world. It’s a change of Lordships. Public confession defines our position. Confessing the Lordship of Jesus put us under His supervision care and protection.” I have a new favorite word: Promulgate. Promulgation: is the formal proclamation or the declaration that a new statutory or administrative law is enacted after its final approval. In some jurisdictions, this additional step is necessary before the law can take effect. By our confession we are enacting the new birth, the new life, God’s life in our life. Hebrews 8:7 Jesus paid the price for a new and better way to the Father. When we make our confession we establish a better way is taking effect in our lives. We are making a proclamation that old things, the old covenant is passed away. The new statutes are the new life in Christ. The New testament is like a legal document that is established through the blood of Jesus. When we make our declarations, we are making it a reality for ourselves. FAITH’S CONFESSIONS CREATE REALITIES. Hebrews 9:12 Only once. John 15:5,7 2 Corinthians 5:21 It is His righteousness that we are declaring. 1 Corinthians 1:30 We are putting a law or decree into effect, that Christ (the anointed) has redeemed me with His blood and declaring to the devil that it is ILLEGAL for him to oppress me, keep me in sickness, to keep me in poverty. Through faith in His blood and the confession of our mouth, it is a legal, binding, new law or covenant.
