EXERCISE THE AUTHORITY OF JESUS CHRIST
Bible Texts: Matt.10:1, 1Cor.16:9, Eph.1:21, 3Jn.1:2, Lk.10:19, Mk.9:29, Jn.3:3-7, 2Cor.5:17, Rev.12:11, Rom.8:31, Job 22:28, Matt.18:18-20
Glory be to Jesus Christ in the Highest! Today is the 10th day of the 70 days of fasting and prayers. Let us all keep pressing on because there shall blessings at the end (Is.40:31, Is.58:6-12, Mk.9:29). If you are Abuja, please read the information below for where we meet to pray.
As we prepare to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, you must recognize that His birth delivers authority and power to you. God has given you power and authority through the birth and resurrection of Jesus Christ and God wants you to exercise it as the good and godly husbandman
And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease (Mk.10:1)
Having a relationship with Jesus Christ by being born again gives you access to power. As a disciples of Jesus Christ, Christ has given you power over the works of satan, sin and the world. God wants you to exercise the authority and power He has given to you.
But why must I exercise authority?
A great and effectual door is opened before you but there are many adversaries (1Cor.16:9)
As the husbandman who is growing to become the good and godly man, husband and father, there are many ungodly forces that want to hinder you. They include unclean spirits like adultery, lying, covetousness, uncontrolled appetite for food, sex and money, unforgiveness and so much more. These spirits are from satan, sin and the world, working to defile you and make you unfit to be conduct yourself in ways the pleases God as the husbandman. If you don’t exercise the power of God against these ungodly forces, you will not attain the fullness of your calling as the husbandman.
However, for you to exercise the power of God you must be conscious of who you are in Christ.
We are seated far above……..(Eph.1:21)
You are seated with the Husbandman, Jesus Christ in heavenly places far above principalities, powers and rulers of this world. You are in this world but you are not of this world. You must be conscious of this all the time because it is the only way you can build your faith in God to take dominion and authority over works of satan, sin and the world.
The glory of the good and godly husbandman is his ability to walk on earth like Jesus Christ did in power and authority. That is your heritage. Work and walk in this truth always.
