MY CONFESSION
Abba Father, I thank you for the joy of salvation that I have in Christ Jesus who loved me and gave Himself for me on the Cross. I thank you Father for causing your joy in me to be the source of my strength. I boldly confess that the joy of the Lord will continually be on the increase in my life, in the lives of the SMIC and all our ministers in Jesus name. I confess that my career, business, academics, job and all that I lay my hands on this year are bringing joy into my life in Jesus name. I will not experience sorrow, mourning and sighing this year in Jesus name. I confess that throughout this year I shall receive good tidings of great joy in every area of my life, from my parents, spouse and siblings in Jesus name. I am a source of joy to all that will come across my path this year in Jesus name. I confess that all our services, specialized and outreach programmes will bring great joy to people and this will be evident in the lives of church members in Jesus name. I see this year as a year of glad tidings of great joy in every area of my life in Jesus name. My joy this year is unlimited and knows no bound in Jesus name. Throughout this year, I shall sleep and wake up in joy in Jesus name. The words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart bring joy unto me and everyone around me. My joy is established in the Word of God. My Christian life will speak joy unto many around me. I confess that God is sending evangelists to my community/village/city with the gospel of Jesus Christ leading to outbreak of great joy among whole cities/villages/communities. I am full of faith and power by the Spirit of God who dwells in me. I have power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt me. Through the greatness of God’s power that is mine shall all my enemies submit themselves unto me. I have power to get wealth. God’s grace is sufficient for me in every area of my life as His strength is made perfect in my weakness. I have all the power that it takes to do what He will want me to do. I will Praise the Lord in His sanctuary, I will praise Him in the firmament of His power.
