KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 10:32 KJV” Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.”
Talking about God to others, should be an issue of great pride and privilege for anyone, yet it has become quite a difficult thing for most people. Unfortunately, a great number of Christian are not so bold to talk about their faith and about God. Why is this so.? Apostle Paul shows us part of the reason in the following verse.
2Timothy 3:5 KJV “Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.” A number of Christians have not experienced the power of God in their lives, why? Because they are only practicing religion and have neglected the power in it. (2 Tim 3:5). These ones do not see any reason to talk to others about Jesus. The Lord Jesus taught us that when we talk to others about Him, He would likewise tell the Father about us.
When the Father is informed about you, it means receiving the assistance from the angels of God. To confess about God means to acknowledge the word and to declare that it is the truth Many people would rather express unbelieve and doubt than to say, in the name of Jesus, everything will be alright. The Lord Jesus during His days in the flesh never stopped testifying about the power of God. Any time He spoke to a blind eye to be opened; it was a confession about the father. The father also kept honoring His words. Turn every challenge into a testimony by testifying about the father to that situation.
Apostle Peter described the Christians in the following way. 1Peter 2:9 KJV “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:”. The reason for making us, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people and many more is to show forth or testify about God and His mighty deeds. King David was a man who had such a mighty ministry because he always confessed to others about the wondrous works of God. David experienced so much about God because he never stopped telling men that God is a mighty deliverer. Singing in praise to the Lord is also another form of confessing about the father to others.
CONFESSION
My God is the greatest news to be told. My life is filled with making Him known to all men. I experience His power in every area of my life. Glory be to God my father
