Carla Butaud – UNDERSTANDING YOUR AUTHORITY

There are hindrances which prevent the Body of Christ from understanding their authority. “All things are become new.” “New” means not formerly known or experienced. Jesus describes how we are new in Him. Not knowing who you are leads to confusion and depression. Sometimes we get like Mephibosheth who was lame, depressed and had a low opinion of himself. The truth is Jesus’ worthiness is our worthiness. All the land of Saul was restored. All of our land can be restored, too. Possess your land. You are the rightful heir. Otherwise “someone else” will. From the days of John the Baptist the world suffereth violence and the violent take it (the Kingdom of Heaven) by force. “Force” means to go after it and not stop till you get it. Jesus has given that power to us. The fear of man and religious spirits keep us from exercising that power. “So send I you.” We are to be His representatives – ambassadors – on earth. Know your authority and use it correctly. We have authority over all demons and all sickness. Go and do His work. The Kingdom of God is at hand.
