Colossians 2:6So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, 7rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

For those who have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we already have the fundamentals to receive any promise of God. No matter what the promise is, if we work these 4 steps, we will see the manifestation of God’s promise.

When we accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, there are 4 steps we took.
1. We heard the Word of God. (Rom 10:9-10)
2. We believed the Word of God.
3. We received the Word of God.
4. We confessed the Word of God with our mouth.

Example: We desire a new car.
Step 1: We have to hear the Word of God regarding our desires. (Psalm 37:4; John 15:7)
Step 2: We have to believe the Word. The enemy is going to attack our belief system. He will attempt to use every trick in the book to make us doubt God’s Word in any kind of way.
Step 3: Receive the Word. Receiving is different from believing. Receiving is not only believing God is able to do it but, He’s able to do it for me.
Step 4: Confess the Word. Romans 10:10 says, for it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. Confessions are for us. It confirms the validity of God’s Word in our soul.

This process will work for every promise but, we must be willing and patient enough to work the process.

Your Turn
