Exercise Your Authority

Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you - Luke 10:19.

                God has given us authority over all the works of the enemy. When we believe God, we receive the authority to cast out demons in the name of Jesus and to heal the sick. And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues. They will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover - Mark 16:17,18.

                   Jesus said that all authority has been given to him. He is the source of all authority.  And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth” - Mathew 28:18. As we are joint-heirs with Christ, the authority of Christ belongs to us too. God has given us authority to do even greater works than Him. Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father - John 14:12.

                  Let us exercise the authority which God has freely given us. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give - Mathew 10:8. Nothing can harm us by any means as we are the believers of Christ who have authority over all the power of the enemy. Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven - Mathew 18:18.

                                             

PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for giving us the authority over all the power of the enemy. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
