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...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
