Read as an act of worship. Read to be elevated into the great truths of God so that you may worship the Trinity in Spirit and in truth. Be selective about what you read, however. Measure all your reading against the touchstone of Scripture. So much of today’s Christian literature is froth, riddled with Arminian theology or secular thinking. Time is too precious to waste on nonsense. Read more for eternity than time, more for spiritual growth than professional advancement.

CONFESSION 13

FINANCES

My God supplies all my needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. It is His will for me to prosper and to be in health. He takes pleasure in my prosperity. I delight myself in the Lord and He gives me the desires of my heart. I commit my way unto Him, I trust also in Him, and He brings it to pass. The Lord is my Shepherd; I have no want. I am like a tree planted by the rivers of water, bearing fruit, with leaves which never wither and all I do prospers. I am redeemed from the curse of the law because Christ became that curse for me. I am of Christ and of Abraham’s seed; an heir according to the promises God made Abraham. All of Abraham’s blessings are mine in Christ. As the Lord provides for the birds of the air and the flowers of the field, so He provides for me. I seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all things are added on to me. This is the day which the Lord has made; I will rejoice and be glad in it. I call upon the LORD to open wide the doors of prosperity in my behalf. The Holy Spirit bears witness with my spirit that I am a child of God; an heir of God; a join-heir with Christ. I give and it is given unto me; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over; in like manner it returns to me again. With the measure I have given, it is given to me again. I sow bountifully and reap the same. I give faithfully and cheerfully. God makes all grace abound toward me and I always have all sufficiency in all things. I abound in every good work for God’s glory. I never stop confessing His Word but I meditate in it day and night that I may observe to do according to all that is written therein. For then I make my way prosperous and then I have good success. No good thing does God withhold from me because I walk uprightly. I am blessed of God because I trust in Him.
