Confessions 7/27/26

Main message: God’s victory is already finished in Christ; recognize when you’re under spiritual attack, stand in the finished work by speaking faith-based confessions, exercise your authority, and pursue peace and listening to the Holy Spirit to win spiritual battles.

Key points:

• Signs you’re in spiritual warfare: sudden onslaughtes of trouble/loss, physical danger or illness, increased temptation toward sin, and feelings of overwhelm/despair.
• Your response is to stand in the “realm of the finished” — confess Christ’s finished work, claim righteousness and victory, and refuse shame or identity-based guilt.
• You have authority over the enemy’s power; bind the devil in Jesus’ name and take spiritual issues to their root rather than fighting only in the natural.
• Maintain your stance by aligning thinking, speech, and actions with what Christ has already done; faith is living in the finished.
• Cultivate peace and listening prayer (quiet time, reduce mental clutter) so the Holy Spirit can guide you; don’t be distracted by shame, past hurts, or constant media noise.
• Protect relationships (especially marriages), do personal inner work where needed, and rise above deception and blaming.

Scriptures mentioned: Matthew 4:1-11, John 10:10, Ephesians 6:12, Daniel 3, John 14:27
