True Authority

This is a profound reflection that has been written in form of a devotion. I would like everyone to take your time reading this devotion and apply what is said to your own life:




The Church's True Authority




It's time as Christians to take the authority Jesus left us. It's time to break the yoke of slavery bestowed on our lives. It's time we restore our lives, and pick up the shattered pieces. If God made so many promises, and did so many great miracles in the bible why not with us. What makes them any different? David was a mass-murderer, committed unfaithful adultery numerous times, and yet he is called "a man after the own heart of God." If a man like that can slay a giant, and kill bears and lions with his hand, and tame the demons that tormented Saul. What can God do in us? If God parted the red sea, brought plague to Egypt, descended a pillar of cloud by day and one of fire by night, and the list just goes on, through the prophet Moses. That was also a murderer, worshiped pagan gods (as a prince of Egypt), and had a speaking disability. What is holding us back? God tells us that we shall do greater things than each generation before. Haggai 2:9 "The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts." Jesus himself says it in John 14:12. Take the authority given to you and start giving your problems to God there is nothing God can find that is Impossible to do. But as the word also says in Romans 10:17 "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Without faith we cannot attain the miracles we seek but once you have knowledge and have heard the word of God then you can start healing with even your shadow. Acts 5:15 "so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them. 16 Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed." What more can we do church?! If God says that we shall do Greater things than this. It is time that you take your authority in Jesus and receive your miracle.
