Authority
February 21, 2018
Devotions:
“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.” Genesis 1:26-28 KJV
When God created mankind, He gave him authority over all the creation of His hand. This means that you have authority over things in your life and if you do not use this authority, the enemy, the devil, will come in and take control. You have authority over you body as to whether you allow sickness and disease to ravage it. You have authority over your feelings whether you feel depressed or not. You have authority over your circumstances whether they be bad or good. But you must believe that you have this authority from God, be in submission unto God and speak out what you believe. You I must speak to your mountain in faith that it must obey you because of the authority you possess. You speak to your schooling and call in good grades but then you must put corresponding actions to what you believe by studying. You speak to your finances and then put the corresponding actions by giving where the Lord shows you to give. The kingdom of God works on the principle of sowing and reaping. There is no reaping without sowing, positively or negatively. Speak to your circumstances and continually command them to be good. The fight is to continually believe that what you say will come to pass even in the face of contiridictory circumstances. You do not have authority over another human being unless they give you that authority. Start releasing you authority by speaking into your world and you who you are and your body.
