ALL AUTHORITY


All authority is God's and has been delegated to us.

(Mat 28:18-20)  And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, All authority is given to Me in Heaven and in earth. Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen.

All the areas of life now under the authority of other gods shall be returned to the authority of Christ when, as mature sons of Father, we really believe the words of God. All religious and secular gods – every idol that man has set up will be destroyed. Even now things which have been set up by false gods and secular godless systems are beginning to crumble before our eyes.
All evil authority that the enemy has over life in this world was given over to him by mankind. Jesus has defeated the enemy destroying the enemy’s authority over this world. The ONLY authority that the enemy now has is the power relegated to him by man. The entire world waits for mankind to believe the provision of Spirit God in us to destroy the works of the enemy and release the kingdom works of God to rule and reign on earth.
False powerless religion has been used as a tool to deceive mankind into believing that the enemy is still so powerful that there is nothing we can do to stop his reign on earth. The enemy working through false doctrines and religious spirits has convinced many Christians that they do not have power and authority to stop the rule of the enemy. Our warfare now is a battle for faith – faith to believe what Christ Jesus has already done and faith to bring it to pass in the world.
Spiritually blinded Christians look longingly up into the sky waiting for that which is already available. Through Christ by the Holy Spirit, Father God is now available to abide within us.
Literally, Father God in Christ by the Holy Spirit abides in believers to destroy the kingdom of darkness and release the light of the kingdom from heaven on earth.
It is past time for God’s people to awaken to the authority of God that is in us to destroy the works of the enemy and to release the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.
From Genesis to Revelation the Bible speaks of the authority of God in Christ in His people – you and me.
Can we believe?  Here is who we are and what we will doing in and through Christ.
