Tonight we will continue in our midweek series from 1 John 5, on Confident Christianity, and really of these messages came from a portion of a message a few weeks ago on a Sunday morning, we talked about Christians. Believers living underneath the privilege of what God insists for them to live in.

Being an authentic follower of the Lord Jesus Christ really does mean something! it’s not just a religious term, it’s not just your social media identifier, but if you’re saved and in the faith it really means something to be a Christian. 

5 Aspects of Christian Confidence

  1. Confident of eternal life in Christ 5:13
  2. Confident of answered prayer in the will of God 5:14-15
  3. Confident In Victory Over Sin and Satan 5:17-19
  4. Confident that we belong to God 5:19
  5. Confident of Christ being the one, true God 5:20

James says “effectual, fervent” prayer. Behind this expression is the idea of energy, the mighty energy and power of the Holy Spirit of God. Praying with power in the spirit!

James is saying: “Great is the power and strength of a godly person’s supplication. It accomplishes much in its outworking. It releases tremendous power.

Miranda and I want to personally invite you to join us for the 54th Land  Of The Sky Jubilee! As a child, this was my favorite time of the year! The memories made, the sermons I heard preached, the music that grabbed my heart then, is still a major part of who I am today. Please make your plans to come and be blessed!  —Pastor Winston

“Our confidence contract with the Lord”

As Christians, we have our advocate, our representative in the second person of the Godhead that we talked about Sunday, Jesus Christ, who is also there in the capacity as our great High Priest, who is at the right hand of the Father, who is pleading our case, taking our petitions, directly to God.

So if this is a communication, a pleading—- if you are in dialog with God, then we must understand some basics about Who it is we are speaking to
