<h1>A Confession of Faith (revised) </h1>
<p style="margin-top:0px;">Copyright © 2009 by Rocklyn E. Clarke Sr.</p>
<p>God's divine power has given me everything I need for life and godliness.<sup><a href="#one">1</a></sup></p>
<p>I am blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ:<sup><a href="#two">2</a></sup></p>
<ul>
<li>I have been chosen in Christ to be holy and blameless;<sup><a href="#two">2</a></sup></li>
<li>I have been adopted as one of God's sons;<sup><a href="#two">2</a></sup></li>
<li>I have been redeemed and forgiven;<sup><a href="#two">2</a></sup></li>
<li>God's grace has been poured out on me abundantly<sup><a href="#two">2</a></sup></li>
<li>I am a blessing to others, especially to other believers.<sup><a href="#two">2</a></sup></li>
</ul>
<p>I am healed — sickness can't live in me. I will live out my full life span.<sup><a href="#three">3</a></sup></p>
<p>I lay hands on the sick and they recover.<sup><a href="#four">4</a></sup></p>
<p>The Father has rescued me from Satan's power and placed me in his Son’s kingdom.<sup><a href="#five">5</a></sup></p>
<p>Because Jesus Christ is my Lord, sin cannot dominate me and Satan is under my feet.<sup><a href="#six">6</a></sup></p>
<p>I have abundant eternal life and I walk in holiness and victory.<sup><a href="#seven">7</a></sup></p>
<p>God's word lives in me richly — I put it into practice daily.<sup><a href="#eight">8</a></sup></p>
<p>I am faithful in prayer and I worship God with my mouth, hands, and feet.<sup><a href="#nine">9</a></sup></p>
<p>I honor God with my wealth and with the first portion of everything he gives me.<sup><a href="#ten">10</a></sup></p>
<p>I am faithful in fellowship with my life group and with my congregation.<sup><a href="#eleven">11</a></sup></p>
<p>I make disciples for Jesus — I teach them what I know and train them to
teach others.<sup><a href="#twelve">12</a></sup></p>
<p>I walk in unity with my brothers and sisters and I am accountable to my leaders.<sup><a href="#thirteen">13</a></sup></p>
<p>I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me — I serve others.<sup><a href="#fourteen">14</a></sup></p>
<p>No weapon used against me will be successful — I can love my enemies.<sup><a href="#fifteen">15</a></sup></p>
<p>God's love makes me more than a conqueror — nothing can separate me from
his love.<sup><a href="#sixteen">16</a></sup></p>
