HOLD FAST THE PROFESSION OF YOUR FAITH

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;” Hebrews 10:23 KJV
You are the offspring of a Holy God and so you are holy. Don’t try to be. You are already made holy by a Holy God who is your Father and your source. Your Father is holy, in other words, you will naturally exhibit holiness when you take your position. Tomatoes produce tomatoes. It will be abnormal for tomatoes to produce onions because the seed of onions is not in tomatoes.
Your father is powerful; you are powerful. Your Father is awesome; you are awesome. That is how we should work. Wake up in the morning and say “Father, I thank you for your holiness”. It is not predicated on the way you look or on some of your misbehaviours. No! Keep declaring it! When you declare it to yourself you will produce the fruits. Christianity begins with the finished work. Colossians 2:6 says “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:” The way you have received Christ, walk you in Him like that.
Colossians 2:7 encourages us to be rooted and built up in Him. In other words, wake up every day and begin to thank him for your position. That widow woman began to run over the entire place. The dead child was in the house but she began to declare what she believed. She declared: It is well with me! She refused to open her mouth to declare what the devil wanted her to declare. When you declare your faith, things will change! If believers can only learn to speak the way they ought to, some of the things they are going through will come to an end instantly.
Your positioning is powerful. God gave it to you and you must not let it go no matter what is surrounding you. It is your positioning that will change your circumstance. Your positioning has the capacity to change your condition so you declare it daily over your life. The more you say it the more it becomes real.
