I Confess

I confess That I am a great sinner, but Jesus is an even greater Saviour. (Ephesians 2: 8-9).

I confess That I need a Saviour and that Jesus is the Saviour I need (2 Timothy 1:10).

I confess I am guilty, prone to wander but, by the Gospel, I am justified freely by His grace, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus (Romans 3:24).

I confess I had ruined myself by sin, and, apart from grace, I would stand exposed to divine retribution. But I rejoice in the Gospel because by the Gospel I continually learn that Jesus was made (reckoned) sin for me, that I might be made (reckoned) the righteousness of God in Him (2 Corinthians 5:21).

I confess I am now a child of God.

Because of the Gospel, I am made alive, adopted, justified, accepted, and clothed in righteousness. " God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ" (Galatians 6: 14).

I confess I have been raised from spiritual death. Spiritually speaking, my filthy garments of sin are taken off and new robes of righteousness, white, clean and beautiful, put on (Zechariah 3:3-4, Isaiah 61:10).

I confess Now that I am saved, I will "Set my affection on things above where Christ is" (Colossians 3: 2). He is precious. I will purpose to enjoy Him today and every day.

I confess That Jesus is with me 24 hours per day for He said, "I am with you always, even unto the end of the world" (Matthew 28: 3). Even when I neglect to seek Him, even when I don’t think of Him, He is with me. He is the Master of all grace. I am continually with Him. I cannot be where He is not. There is no separation (Romans 8:38-39).

I confess That I am, "Kept by the power of God" (1 Peter 1: 5).

I cannot keep myself. The pull of the world the flesh and the devil are too strong for me. But I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. "I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about" (Psalm 3:6). "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" (Psalm 27: 1). He will keep me unto salvation.

I confess The Lord has promised that "In the secret of His tabernacle shall He hide me" (Psalm 27: 5). In the time of danger, He will hide me in His dwelling place and defend me. He will situate me in a place inaccessible to my enemies.

I confess That God Himself is with me as my Captain (2 Chronicles 13:12). As you lead me Oh Lord, I acknowledge that you are in charge.

I confess I have a High Priest who can be touched with the feeling of my infirmities (Hebrews 4:15). Lord Jesus, you know about my sickness and sorrow. You stand in my shoes. You understand the struggles that come as a part of this wretched human condition.

I confess That "In Thee Lord do I put my trust" (Psalm 16:1).

I have no one else to trust. Whom can I trust with my eternal destiny but you? You have promised eternal life to your sheep. You have died in my place and risen from the grave. I put my trust in you.

I confess That you are coming back for me (John 14:3). There is a soon coming day that is called the Day of the Lord. My hope is centered in You Lord Jesus, the God-man. Thy Kingdom Come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.

And that’s the Gospel Truth!
