Use The Authority Given By God

 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 gave twelve disciples the power and authority over all devils and to heal the sick. Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick - Luke 9:1-2. When He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease - Matthew 10:1.

             Peter used his spiritual authority to set the lame man free from bondage. Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. So he, leaping up, stood and walked and entered the temple with them - walking, leaping, and praising God - Peter 3:6-8.

               Let us use the authority that God has given us. And as you go, preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give - Matthew 10:7,8. As we start using the authority given by God, devils will be defeated and miracles will happen. 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.                                                   

  PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for the authority You have given us over all the power of enemies. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
