The Authority Of The Believer #1
Part1
Matt:6,9-15 The Lord's Prayer:
The reading of the law
Prov:18-21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Matt:12-37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. Rom:6-16, SERVANTS TO OBEY
Col:1,16-18 We must receive and submit to the Lordship of Jesus: in authority under His authority, surrendered to him as our source for everything, this takes a mind adjustment. Phil:2-5 The mind of Christ.
We must receive the word of God as a most precious gift ever received in this life and treat it as such, giving it honor and our upmost respect and it will work for you.
Jn:1,1-2,10-12
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. "Do you see the authority the word has"
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
Ps:107-20 He sent his Word and healed them.
Rom:10,8-10
But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
Mk:16-6 Jesus said he that believe and is baptized shall be saved
Jn:17-14
I have given them thy Word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Job;23,11-12 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.
Ps;138-2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy Word above all thy name.
"Jesus Word, can not be overruled because all things are under his feet" and his Word is settled in heaven. Ps:119-89
Matt:3,13-17 Jesus baptized of John
Acts:10-38 Jesus began doing good healing all oppressed of the devil for God was with him.
Matt:4-24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.
We must remember, Jesus while in his earthly ministry operated as a man anointed by God at the baptism as you and I were to show us how we are to reign in this life as he did through him having dominion, authority, and power over our enemy Satan the devil and his demons.
Lk:4,1-12 read it!!! Jesus is teaching us how to deal with temptations
Ja:4-7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Gal:5,16,24-25
16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. How do we do that? By hearing the word and do what it say. That's what Jesus did. Ps:37-37 Mark Jesus not Adam.
Jesus always walked in the spirit: How? He obeyed the Father's word.
Deut:18-18, It was prophesied what Jesus would do
Jn:12,49-50
Jn:5-19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
Jn:15-1,5-6 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
Jn:16,13-15 The Holy ghost did to us what the Father did to Jesus
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Rom:8,1-4
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
Rom:13,10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. It doesn't matter what kind of temptation the devil present, it will not overtake you if you are walking and living in the spirit or in the word of God. Look what Paul said.
Rom:5-17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) We're talking now!!! to those that can receive it.
Definition of abundance: A very large quantity of something
Definition of reign: SOVEREIGNTY, supreme power dominion or controlling influence
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Satan is defeated :
Lk:10,17-19
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Rev:12-12 Woe to the inhabitants of the earth
1Jn:3-8
- Mk:11-23 His spoken Word is Spirit law: Whosoever shall say.... Jn:6-63 My word is spirit and truth.
- Col:1,17-18
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
- 1, Jn:1-1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
- 2, Ps:138-2/ Thou hast magnified thy Word above all thy name
- 3, Gen:1-3/ And God said and began to create with his Words
- 4, Jn:1-14/ The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us
- 5, Mk:11-23 The spoken Word is spirit law Is:45-22.....

- 8, Is, 45-7/ I make peace and create evil with my Words
- 9, Ps:107-20/ He sent his Word and healed them
- 10, Matt:8-16/ He cast out the spirits with his Word
- 11, Ps:119-105/ Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet

- 13, Prov:4-22/ The Word is life and health to them that find it.
- 14, Is:55,10-11/ The Word will accomplish what it please.....
- 15, Ephe:5,25-27/ Jesus washed the church by the washing of water of the Word. read this!!!
- The authority of the believer is delegated power given by the Lord who has declared all power has been given unto me, and the strength of that power is the force behind it, which is the Father. Lk:10-19 Stopped here!!!
Heb:11,1,6
1, Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
6, But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Your faith is the substance of the very thing you are believing God for, it is the evidence and the fact that guarantee if you don't doubt you can have what you say. (Mk:11-23)
First, let us understand faith and belief are not the same. To believe you're accepting the word to be true or something you are sure of, (faith is acting on what you believe) they agree but are not the same.
If there is no action to what you believe, your belief has no power it's just a statement you're making.
The Law Of Faith
There is a law that shows us faith works the same all the time anyplace or anywhere, it doesn't matter about the circumstance or what you are going through the principle doesn't change, and because we don't see and understand this fact we go lacking. (Mk:11,22-23) I believe I receive
One important fact about faith is understanding the natural and spiritual realm faith works in. These two realms are running concurrently at the same time.
The realm we are most familiar with is the natural sense realm, things we see, feel, touch, taste, and, smell.
However, we must understand the spirit realm is also in operation on a higher and greater level that dominates the natural realm, how? by God's spoken word, That's where the power is.
Stopped Here >>>>>>>>>>>>
In the natural we have the power of choice, we can choose our destiny, whether we will keep God's laws statues and judgements obey his word of righteousness, endure too the end and become God, or follow Satan and go to the fire. Rom:6-16
In the spirit realm we can speak the word of God and dominate any situation we are presently in if we only believe. Mk:11-23
Jn:14,15,21-23 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
10Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
Ephe:1 ,15-23, The greatness of his power, Ephe:2,4-10, We are his workmanship.......
2Corth:5,16-17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Rom:12,1-2
Gal:3-27
For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
Because we are use to living in the natural we must adjust our thinking and ask God to show us how to operate in the spirit and become more than a conqueror and began to win in life. ex: Peter and the multitude of fishes: Lk:5-5, He obeyed the word.
"Walking in the spirit is obeying the spoken word of God" and do what it say!!!
6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.
Jn:4-24 God is a Spirit. the devil is to but his words are inferior to the word of God.
Mk11,11-14
12And on the morrow, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry:
v-19-21, And when even was come, he went out of the city.
20And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
I knew when I said I believe I receive is now, but what I didn't quite see was and ye shall have them. I didn't investigate the word shall but just received what others said about this word that it was future, which is true, question? when does the future start?
According to google dictionary: the time, or period of time following the moment of speaking or writing.
2Peter:1,2-4 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: (Showing high moral standards)
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
The believer has been given authority over the kingdom of darkness and over all its power. Lk:10-19
Jesus has delegated authority and power to the believer:
Empowered: Give someone the authority or power to do something
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. (Stop)
Rom:5-17, We can reign in this life by one Jesus Christ.You will not reign in life if you can't manage your behavior and have a problem with obedience, submitting to the word, and keeping God's Royal law the Ten Commandments, his statues, and judgments
So why are many people in the body of Christ allowing the devil to do as he pleases in their lives? It appears the body of Christ will not do as the Apostle James instructs them.
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
Is:14,12-15 His pride brought him down
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Acts:3,2-6
3Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
4And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
5And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
6Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. They didn't pray to God they stood in their authority and made it happen.
Matt:16-1919 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. The Lord is saying agree with the word, it's already settled in heaven
Heb:13-8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.
Some Christians are yet not believing God has given them the power to speak the word, cast out devils, lay hands on the sick, heal all diseases, and believe the word of God will do what it says in the name of Jesus and not get in fear.
The spirit of fear must not be accepted or allowed to grow in our lives. God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind. (2 Tim. 1:7)
And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
(Is:59,1-2) come to God with repentance, sin has separated you from God. Is:59,1-2, Jn:9-31 God don't hear sinners
Acts :2-38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
What is sin? (1Jn:3-4) Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. This is the bible definition of sin.
(Lk: 13-3) Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
To all so-called Christians who willingly choose Sunday as your Sabbath day of worship, you have satisfied the will and desire of Satan to worship him, and his reward to you are lies, deception, and the lake of fire if you don't repent.
(Prov: 15-8:) the sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord. Who are the wicked? People that walk after their carnal minds refusing to keep God's commandments, statutes, and law.
(Lk: 4, 5-7:) It is Satan through deception, and manipulation giving things to whomsoever he will give it to, those who worship him. This authority was given to him when Adam fell in the garden without a fight.
2 Corinthians 11:13
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
2Tim:2,1-7
Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
