An Authority that has been given to us!


1 John 4:4 
"You, dear  children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world."
1 Peter 5:8
"Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." 

Point of sharing is the power of our conviction/belief. It is known that the evil one no longer has power over us since his fall from heavens. Even from the beginning. And his ways are deception to con us into lending him the authority that has been given to us (we are made in God's image, given a share of His power). So when we succumb to fear, doubt or worries and all the bad things that are not from God, we let him gain a foothold in our lives and we go in agreement with him, lending him our power to thwart God's plan for us. So let us stand fast and discerning. Whether it being ourselves or our loved ones, let none of the bad feelings have a grip onto us. Let us not will bad things into fruition- death, sickness, diseases, failures, setbacks, fears- let us stand in authority and bind them with the Word of God and stand in victory that has been given us.



Note: it is good to want to be right, and listen to the right voice and all. But even fears in the form of fearing to hear wrong, fearing to make the wrong decisions have not come from God. The only fear we need to have is the fear of God! Likewise for doubt, for our confidence is in Christ Jesus. Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see."
