Use Your Authority

Luke 10:19

Every child of God has God given, God delegated power that is meant to be used.
This God delegated power is what we call authority.
Authority and power are connected.

Power is the force or energy that makes things happen.
Power creates an impact.
Authority is the right to use that power.
Authority gives confidence.

Jesus operated in kingdom power when He was here on earth.
Luke 5:17
Jesus had power and He confidently used it because He has the authority to do so.
He taught the word of God with authority because He knew He was teaching what the Father tells Him.
Matthew 7:28,29
Jesus knew He had the authority to use the power He has.
John 5:21
John 17:2

If you are saved and in Christ, you have the authority to use God's power in you.
Mark 16:17,18
You have the authority to use God's faith in you.
You have the authority to confess God's Word and expect results.
You have the authority to declare a thing and see it manifest according to God's word.
Job 22:28
You have access and authority to God's power.
John 1:12

Prophets of God in scripture prophesied with authority and got results because they were connected to the source (God).
If you are connected to the source (God) through salvation, then you have authority to use God's power responsibly.

Areas we are to use our authority:
1) Spiritually - take authority over the enemy in the spiritual realm.
Ephesians 6:12


2) On earth - Satan is an illegal authority on the earth, don't let Satan cheat you.
Psalm 115:16


3) Our finances/resources - resources and finances are of God, don't let Satan rob you.
 Haggai 2:8

4) Our marriage/personal lives - God wants us to enjoy our marriage and spouse, but this is an area Satan uses to bring attacks into people's lives.
Psalm 128:3


5) Our children - determine that Satan will not have your children. Determine that your children will not be less than what God says of them.
Psalm 127:3

6) Our health - once our health is gone our usefulness in life is almost gone. Don't let the enemy take your health.
Matthew 15:26

7) Over agents of Satan - they are not permitted to dominate  us even even if they try to. They are everywhere and in every sector of life.
At work, in families, among friends etc
Take authority over their evil and imagination.
As a son or daughter of God's kingdom you have the right to use your kingdom authority.
Isaiah 54:15-17

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination. Car drivers either buy a GPS/Navigation device system or
