Word Of The Week: The Authority Of The Believer
Every believer has an authority. This authority we receive at the new birth. Being born again is being born into the family of God and into all the blessings, benefits and privileges of the divine family. One of such is the authority given to us by Jesus Christ our Saviour. Here is the Lord proclaiming our authority as believers in Him and as His redeemed.
Luke 10:19_ 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.
If you don't know who you are, you'll not know what belongs to you. Knowing who we are in Jesus and the authority that comes with our place in Him is crucial. Every believer has this authority over the enemy and over all his activities and schemes. In exercising our authority, nothing can harm or hurt us.
Rise up to who you are and begin to operate in the fullness of your divinely given authority. Take authority. Take charge. Be in control. Don't give the enemy an inch over you and yours. Mark your territory and stand against all plots and antics of the wicked one.
The enemy came to steal, kill and destroy. But at Calvary, he lost the battle. He was defeated at the cross. Let him remain defeated in your life. Use your authority as the believer. Rise to your authority in Jesus Christ. Don't let a defeated foe meddle in your life. Don't let the defeated defeat you.
