The Law of Confession
‘The Laws of the Spirit’- By Bob Buses-This is the article about, The Law of Confession- To build strength through proper use of words, The Law of the Spirit is based on Rom. 8:2. “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.” Every Word of God is a Spirit Word. Jn. 6:63 “It is the Spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” They are the truths of God’s Spirit. They are Spirit laws. When acted upon they produce life.
1 The Law of Confession- To build strength through proper use of words
- 2 The Law of Meditation- (For prayer and seeking God, and for building God into your life)
- 3 The Law of Prosperity- (For building success into your life in all areas)

- When ignored through ignorance or rebellion, they produce death.
The law of the Spirit is life.
- This law, when acted upon, makes one free from the opposite law.
- The law of sin is death.
- Obey sin and unbelief; then death follows.
- So every promise that you believe and act upon regardless of emotion or feeling produces life and deliverance from bondage.
- Jn. 8:32 “Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.”
As you continue in God’s Word, then you become a full-grown son.
- You become a real disciple.
- You then operate in God’s truth.
- This truth liberates you.
- The entire purpose of this book is to put the Word of God in your heart.
- The reader is encouraged to apply this Word to daily problems.
Each time the Word makes a statement,
- the believer or reader is encouraged and taught to act upon that Word regardless of feelings, emotions, or previous experience to the contrary.
- As the believer begins to believe the Word of God regardless of experience or emotions,
- then full-grown faith begins to manifest itself in the heart.
- Therefore, the reason for this book is to help you to let the Word of God become your law of life instead of experience,
- and unbelief your law of sin and death.
The Law of Confession
The scriptures are placed at the beginning of each subdivision.
- Then the same scriptures are discussed immediately following.
- This follows throughout the entire book.
- My suggestion is that you use these scriptures to build faith.
- This is why I have them all at the beginning of each topic.
Read and reread these scriptures daily to build faith.
- These scriptures are also good for Bible studies and prayer groups.
- These scriptures have accumulated in my notebook from my daily devotional studies.
- I have not tried to cover the entire field.
- You can easily build several messages out of each topic.
- I Pet. 2:2 “Like newborn babies, desire the sincere milk of the Word that ye may grow thereby.”
- Newborn babes drink milk every three or four hours.
- Take a Word break rather than a coffee break.
- Put a vitamin in you every few hours to build up the Spiritual deficiency in any area you find lacking.
These scriptures serve as vitamin pills.
- Read them, and reread them daily under the subject most needed during that day.
- I usually read them during devotion over and over.
- Then I stop and pray after the verses as I feel led.
- One chapter is plenty to work on during the day.
However, you may feel led to use several or parts of several.
- Read the book completely through several times.
- Then use it as a faith builder daily.
- After you have read the book through a couple of times you may want to disregard the comments.
- Just stick to the scriptures under each topic.
The Law of Confession
When you need healing, read verses over and over under healing.
- Read them until you believe in healing more than you do the Devil’s sickness.
- When weak, read the scriptures on Strength over and over until you are convinced of God’s law of strength.
- Automatically you will begin to disbelieve in Satan’s law of weakness.
- Thus you can use the different chapters in daily faith-building.
- Some of the scriptures used are taken out of context and are applied spiritually for the reader today.
- 2 Tim. 3:16 “All scripture is … profitable.”
- 1 Cor. 10:11 “Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they were written for our admonition …”

THE TONGUE IS A TREE OF LIFE

The Law of Confession
“A man shall be satisfied with good” by proper use of words.
- The words you speak are the fruit of your spirit.
- Your heart speaks through the lips and the fruit is therefore born on the lips.
- Negative words tear and destroy what the good words have built up.
- Every good word builds a shield around you.
- Every negative word tears this shield down.
- Keep your words right and the enemy cannot tear down that shield.
- He will not be able to penetrate you.
The Law of Confession
WHATEVER YOU PUT IN YOUR HEART WILL COME FORTH
- Mt. 12:35-37 “A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things:
- and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
- But I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak,
- they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
- For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words, thou shalt be condemned.”
- Pr. 4:23 “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”
- 1 Cor. 3:9 “. Ye are God’s husbandry .” (farm)
This is a law of the Spirit. You get whatever you speak.
- Mk. 11:23 “You shall have what you say.”
- “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth good things.”
- The heart is where the words are stored. Then they are released through the lips.
- The good man stores the Word.
- He meditates on God.
- He brings forth good things.
- “The evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil.”
- Whatever you put in will grow up and come out.

This is the law of reaping.
- You reap what you sow.
- Whatever you think on most becomes a part of you.
- When you speak it, it is yours.
- By thy words, thou shalt be justified or condemned.
Your words will deliver you, or they will condemn you.
- Your words are what you believe in the most.
- Confess sickness, and get sick because you believe in sickness more than you do the healing.
- Confess failure, and get failure because you believe in failure more than you do victory through Jesus Christ.
- And Confess the ministry of Christ, and you get the ministry of Christ
- because you believe in the ministry of Christ more than you do the ministry of doubt and unbelief which are born in hell.
- “Keep your heart with all diligence for out of it are the issues or controlling factors of your life.”
- Pr. 23:7 “As he thinketh in his heart so is he.”
The Law of Confession-To Build Strength Through Proper Use Of Words
Whatever you put in that heart is going to bear fruit.
- It will someday grow up and become a part of your speech.
- When it does, you have accepted that as your law.
- So fill your heart with God’s Word.
- Then God will come forth on your lips and deliver you in the area concerning your speech at that moment.
- Whatever you believe in the most will come forth through your lips and control you.
- So become God-possessed through reading, and studying, and doing God’s Word.
- Then God will always be on your lips.
- Then God will always be the shield around you through good and proper words.
- And then the enemy cannot penetrate.

If you want your financial blessings to stop flowing,

We are dealing with the spirit world.
- So whatever comes out of your spirit is spirit.
- This is why when people speak good or bad it keeps ringing in your ears for days.
- “He that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.
- Let your spirit speak words that were inspired by the Devil and you reap the Devil.

The Law of Confession
Confession is made unto salvation.
- And Confession produces salvation.
- However, you have to believe it in your heart first.
- If a person denies every day that he is saved, he will not grow very much in Jesus.
- On the other hand, if he confesses that Jesus saved him because he accepted Him into his heart,
- regardless of feeling, joy will flow; faith will rise, and deliverance will come more and more.
The more you confess, the greater release you have.
- If you believe, you will have what you say.
- This is the law of the Spirit. Base your belief in the Word statement.
- Confess it until you get it.
-
(Mk. 11:23) “Consider the apostle and high priest of ours. ”
- The profession is the same as a confession in Greek.
- The same word is translated throughout the New Testament as a confession.
- Jesus is the high priest of what you will confess based on true faith in the heart.
-
He will confess what you confess. Hallelujah!
- “Whosoever shall confess me before men, he will I confess to my Father in heaven.
- Whoever denies me before men, he will deny before my Father.”
- Whatever you confess, Jesus confesses it to the Father.
- Confess healing; He confesses healing.
