Having Spiritual and Divine Authority through God and using it for good.
Authority, everyone wants power and authority in life, whether it be by means of good or bad, a lot of people want authority in order to lord it over others. People not of God want it to control, manipulate others and to control those under them no matter what. Once you get a sense of authority, you normally want to keep it because it makes you feel empowered yet unchecked it can go very bad. We all have authority as believers through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, we have the authority through him to do what he needs us to do. We have the authority to scare off demons, heal people, and make things happen with the right faith. We are given this authority through what Jesus did for us on the cross, like all authority though, we need to keep it in check and the way to do that is to submit to the ultimate authoritative power.
In order to know what God wants us to do, we must submit ourselves to him and seek his presence and just sit and listen for his voice. Doing this will help you to hear God’s voice in order to have the proper authority in life while using it properly and not abusing it in anyway. Through this, God will also strengthen our souls to carry what is going to happen in that day while giving us the power to help those in need. God has all of the authority and take and give as he pleases, however, his is faithful to his children to share it with them to help us through our days on earth. We hear his voice by reading the Bible daily and praying on our knees, showing that we are submitted to him and to him only. This authority can only come from God and is God-given, do not abuse it, use it for good and God will take care of the rest.
This God given authority is only possible because of Jesus dying for us on the cross and bridging the gap that existed in order to enjoy God’s presence. This gap being bridged through the cross and Jesus’ hands being punctured is how we can experience God’s Holiness and presence when and wherever we need to. This is how we learn God’s voice and then understand the amount of authority we have through him and him alone. Learning the voice of God is how we can have authority that is proper and can help people around us while also fighting off the enemy. It’s how we stay in check with God and make sure we aren’t trying to abuse it in anyway and have the checks and balances.
Spiritual authority is only through God alone because he is the ultimate authoritative power in the universe. Nothing gets passed him and everything has to have his approval first, and yet as his children he gives us such power. Stay submitted to him and your influence and authority will grow along with your relationship with him and seeing his love. God’s authority isn’t what the world defines authority as but is one of love and goodness for others. Submit to him and watch as things change for you and watch as you notice the authority you have through him and him alone. May God bless you and keep you, Amen!!!!
