Stop praying for a moment and listen. There is a specific reason why some believers command miracles while others only beg for them. It is not because God has favorites. It is because one group has discovered a secret that the other has completely missed. It is a secret so powerful that if you were… Continue reading Stop Begging God — The Blood Covenant That Gave You Authority

Salvation Was the Beginning -Authority Is Learned, Not Begged

In the Name of Jesus — Understanding the Legal Authority You Already Carry
You finish praying. You say, In the name of Jesus. And for a brief moment, there is silence, no feeling, no visible shift, no sign that anything moved. And quietly, a question arises, did that really carry authority? Or was it only words? The problem is not that God is distant. It is not that… Continue reading In the Name of Jesus — Understanding the Legal Authority You Already Carry
GOD Is Not Distant — You Are Living from Union, Not Separation
There are sincere believers who have prayed for many years, stayed faithful to church, and truly love GOD. Yet deep inside, they carry a quiet sense of exhaustion, not rebellion, not bitterness, just a silent question they rarely say out loud. Why does God still feel far away? They read the scriptures, they worship, they… Continue reading GOD Is Not Distant — You Are Living from Union, Not Separation
You have been using the Name of Jesus – but not from Authority
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE SPIRIT REALM WHEN YOU SPEAK Most believers have never been taught what is actually happening “in the realm of the spirit” when they speak, even quietly, even casually. In the visible world, it feels like sound, you hear a voice, speaking becomes habit, and usually a religious phrase. But in the… Continue reading You have been using the Name of Jesus – but not from Authority
Why the Devil Doesn’t Want You to Know You’re Seated with Christ
There is a truth so powerful, so staggering, that if the church truly grasped it, Satan’s dominion over believers would collapse overnight. It is not a secret hidden in the shadows. It’s written clearly in Ephesians. Ephesians 2:6 and hath raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.… Continue reading Why the Devil Doesn’t Want You to Know You’re Seated with Christ
The Hidden Authority in the Name of Jesus
Most believers use the name of Jesus as a closing to a prayer, but hell hears it as a threat. Yet the tragedy is this. Most Christians speak the name without ever touching the authority that stands behind it. The most powerful spiritual weapon entrusted to the church is spoken daily, sung weekly, printed on… Continue reading The Hidden Authority in the Name of Jesus
Sitting down on your throne
This is the last commandment of Jesus in the book of Luke to His disciples. Luke 24: 44 Then He said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and… Continue reading Sitting down on your throne
Crowns
Whatever you look like in the spirit is how the demonic spirit world sees you. Whatever you carry of the kingdom is what you represent when you are in the realm of the spirt. Some of the vibrant things we need to carry as believers are the crowns that God has given us. Crowns are very important because a… Continue reading Crowns
Spiritual Authority
This is a letter a minister received from a 19-year-old girl. I realize that you must receive frequent letters regarding your ministry. But even with that knowledge, I feel compelled to write. I’ve just finished listening to your audio series entitled “Spiritual Authority,” and it has changed my life. When I was in junior high, I became… Continue reading Spiritual Authority
Our Authority Releases God’s Power
There are a number of keys to seeing the miraculous power of God manifest on a consistent basis. One of the least understood, and therefore seldom practiced, is the fact that healing is under the authority of the believer. God has already provided His healing power and placed it on the inside of every born-again… Continue reading Our Authority Releases God’s Power
Believer’s Authority
Is there someone in your life who just rubs you the wrong way? If there is, it may surprise you to learn that it’s not really that person who is creating the rub. There is someone else at work—your real Enemy—and he may be using them to gain an inroad to your life. There is a… Continue reading Believer’s Authority
Faith without an “if”
I would like to give you some basic understanding of authority, and of judgment. What we are doing now is requiring a greater faith than any of us have ever realized. We have been slowly gravitating toward this truth: I not only must know who you are, but I also must have an equal revelation… Continue reading Faith without an “if”
Persistence-part 1
Luke 11:1–13: And it came about that while He (Jesus) was praying in a certain place, after He had finished, one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray just as John also taught his disciples.” And He said to them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom… Continue reading Persistence-part 1
Who kills the wolves?
If the Lord brings discipline and judgment within these Kingdom churches, it will be because they preach the letter of the Word and they do not have the spirit of the Word. Not that we are adequate in ourselves to consider anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God, who also made… Continue reading Who kills the wolves?
The responsibilities of Authority!
The last chapters of Paul’s second letter to the Corinthians show us our need for understanding the true meaning of authority. In our New Testament churches today we will see the launching of this true exercise of authority. In the relationship of the submissive to those who have been commissioned to a function of divine… Continue reading The responsibilities of Authority!
Do you wish you were dead?
The Lord wants to teach us about His authority and His fullness so that we can move into what He has for us. His authority and His fullness are really the issue in this day. Our adequacy is never an issue unless we make it one. If we keep feeling adequate, He has to make… Continue reading Do you wish you were dead?
The peg in a firm place
The Lord is placing authority upon His people in this day to bring forth His Kingdom on the earth. However, there is a certain procedure to be followed in order to see the purposes of God fulfilled. The job is not done simply by receiving a revelation and prophesying about it. After a prediction comes… Continue reading The peg in a firm place
First, we grovel, then we grab
In the original Greek Scriptures which speak about authority, we find the Greek word exousia. It is often translated in the King James Version as “power.” The American Standard Version translates it “authority.” Actually, it means both power and authority, but it also means privilege. There is no one word in English that gives the… Continue reading First, we grovel, then we grab
We’re the fuse for God’s explosion
In the Gospel of John, the deep underlying theme is the Word. John 1:1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. There is also a constant emphasis on the works of God. Rarely is the term “work” used for a human effort that has no… Continue reading We’re the fuse for God’s explosion
Rebuke the devourer
The Old Testament tells of a time, like the restoration that God is giving His people today, in which the Jewish people laid the foundation for the temple after bitter years of exile. When they were captive in Babylon, they had no song, and so they hung their harps on a willow tree and wept,… Continue reading Rebuke the devourer
The submissiveness of authority
Remember those who led you, who spoke the word of God to you; and considering the outcome of their way of life, imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, yes and forever. Hebrews 13:7, 8. Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they keep watch over your souls, as those… Continue reading The submissiveness of authority
Authority over the assault 1
It is very important for your constant encouragement that you never be discouraged or put down. You must realize how irrelevant it is that you are weak, incapable, and few in number. How encouraging it is to see the power manifested through small bodies of believers springing up throughout the whole country. You cannot understand… Continue reading Authority over the assault 1
Exercising our authority
Exhortation With the coming manifestation of divine order it is so necessary that we understand spiritual authority, our role in submission, and the way we are to submit ourselves one to another. The restoration church will not only be something for Satan to deal with; it will, in fact, be the key of his downfall.… Continue reading Exercising our authority
Authority not worthiness
There are two important words Christ used in exhorting the disciples in the tenth chapter of Luke: “authority” and “power.” He gave the seventy authority over all the power of the enemy. The seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in thy name. And he said to them, I… Continue reading Authority not worthiness
The bearer of His name
Is this not the day of victory? Let not your heart be downcast, for thou shalt believe the words of the Lord, and behold, it shall come to pass. Rest in the Lord, for He hath given great things unto thee. Behold, what blessing hath the Lord bestowed upon the remnant. Hath He made them… Continue reading The bearer of His name
True counselors and witnesses
In the multitude of counselors there is safety. The church will succeed when its counselors are ordered of God. Where there is no prophecy (no prophetic vision), the people perish. Where there is a word of revelation, not at the mouth of one, but at the mouth of many witnesses, there is safety. The church… Continue reading True counselors and witnesses
Authority to make disciples
But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated. And when they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful. And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.” “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations,… Continue reading Authority to make disciples
The focus that brings peace
When you prophesy against the circumstances that are the evidence of futility, you are effective to some extent; but the real place where futility is conquered is in your spirit. The victory over futility starts with the sons of God and goes forth from them. God has always spoken a word which is deceptive in… Continue reading The focus that brings peace
POWER OR AUTHORITY
In these days the subject of authority is always very important. Satan has emphasized power, and there was a time when power was an issue. Just before His ascension, Jesus told His disciples, “You shall receive power after the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses unto Me” (Acts 1:8). There… Continue reading POWER OR AUTHORITY
THE MAGNIFICENT MEEK
Now it came about on one of those days, that He got into a boat, He and His disciples, and said to them, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” And they launched out. But as they were sailing along He fell asleep; and a fierce gale of wind descended upon… Continue reading THE MAGNIFICENT MEEK
Being a bondservant of the Lord Jesus Christ
Would you like to have the secret of how to make your brothers and sisters great? and would you like to know how Jesus Christ makes us sons of God? You may not understand the principle of how Jesus Christ the Son, Who is so far in advance of us, could take us in the… Continue reading Being a bondservant of the Lord Jesus Christ
The Right hand
The Lord has been speaking about the manifestation of the sons of God and the release of all creation from futility. This spirit of futility is not only raging in your circumstances, but it is also raging against you individually. The people who have been marked to walk with God have been more harassed and… Continue reading The Right hand
How intense is God ?
We know that His first requirement is that we love Him with all of our heart and soul, all of our mind and strength (Deuteronomy 6:5). This we purpose to do. All the problems of religious Babylon, of Laodicean lukewarmness, come because they give God less than the full intensity of love. How intensely does… Continue reading How intense is God ?
Authority over the assault
When the seventy were sent forth, as recorded in Luke, Christ said, “I give you authority over all the power of the enemy” (Luke 10:19). Do not be too deeply concerned about the strength or the power of demon forces: how much money they have, how much organization they possess, or what legal structures they… Continue reading Authority over the assault
