The authority we have as believers comes through Jesus, the One who has “… disarmed the [evil] powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross” (Col 2:15), For God “… raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand [of authority] in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come, and He put all things under His feet” (Eph 1:20-22).

And we have been appointed to walk in His authority, for God has “…raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Eph 2:6). By recognizing our authority as believers as being from Christ is to have such a firm foundation that we know for certain that we are more than conquerors, we are overcomers, and we are called to reign in this life by Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).

Therefore, knowing that our authority as believers is in Him, by Him and through Him, means our authority cannot be lost or overcome…but it can be left unused.

But no more! Join us as we take the seed of God’s Word to our heart’s to be watered and to grow, giving all glory to Jesus. No more being victims, but victors by our authority in Christ. For in Him we live and move and have our being.
