AUTHORITY




                  “Then He called His 12 disciples together and , gave them power  
                   and authority over all devils and to cure diseases”
                   LUKE 9:1

                   “By the word of truth , by the power of God , by the armor 
                    of righteousness on the right hand and on the left’
                   2 CORINTHIANS

                   ”Put on the whole armor of God . That ye maybe able to 
                     stand against the wiles of the devil “
                    EPHESIANS 6:11

                  “Wherefore  take unto you the whole armor of God , that ye 
                    may be able to withstand in the evil day , and having done 
                    all , to stand”
                    EPHESIANS 6:13

                          
 The sun comes up in the East and sets in the West , but can any day ever begin or end without authority? 
By nature we as humans seek authority ,  imposters [disguised as public servants ]   to the one who gave  us authority to begin with . The ability and authority to freely choose righteousness  , and by obedience to Him the proper methodology  and garments to deflect the daily assaults against our very souls  . Yet souls perish everyday , foolishly lacking the knowledge that they already posses the authority that they in vain diligently pursue  , but sadly fail to find anything they can faithfully be allegiant to or believe .Given to them equally as anyone , by the eternally loving Father of us all , that created them , wanting them to prosper and glorify Him .

               ‘’My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge because thou        
                  has rejected knowledge , I also will reject thee , that thou shalt
                  be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy 
                  God , I will also forget thy children’’
                  HOSEA 4:6

The above instructions and , plainly explicit dialogue , assures us that each day will begin and end by our and His authority . Best , is that as His proxies we already are given the authority to begin , endure , each and end every day .

No doubt in our daily existence we will endure and need to overcome many frequent attacks by the attacks of principalities in this world . As we of this world , not in it do have the authority to defeat all attacks against us. Depressing ? Not really!, as Paul said to die is Christ , to live is gain . Later in Phillipi , he told us , I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me’’, both profundities that we need to make part of our everyday lives . Nearly one thousand years earlier Isaiah instructed Jerusalem to put on the breastplate of righteousness , helmets of salvation , garments of vengeance , and clad in cloaks of zeal . Man says relegate , God says just do it . Clearly that resonates our domain of authority .

              ‘’For he put on righteousness as a breastplate , and a helmet of 
               salvation upon his head and he put on garments of vengeance for 
               clothing , and was clad with zeal as a cloak ‘’
               ISAIAH 59:17

Paul in Ephesus , espouses this somewhat modified . Recorded by Luke and given to us .

            ‘’Stand therefore having your loins girt about with truth , and having  
               on the breastplate of righteousness’’
              EPHESIANS 6:14
   

Profound truths enabling us to fend off with Father given Heavenly authority , any and assaults launched against us . That is no promise of a grandiose life , just divine assurance that we have the authority to face any and all offenses and know that we will never be alone nor forsaken .

Something that I can elaborate on , because I am the only expert that I know on me . The disabilities I have now are the result of a stroke that I survived May 21 , 2001 . On that day like the roaring lion that he is , Satan took from me a very healthy body that I took for granted . I plunged into a realm that few enter and fewer ever emerge from . For a long time I languished in grief over my loss , and felt betrayed , and forsaken .What Satan took , God returned as a blessing that does enable me to see life from a very unique perspective . Nearly eight years later  , what took seconds to happen has taken years to overcome .The improvements keep on keepin’ on , proving to me that it does get better, and this entire time I have known that I have  the God ordained authority to daily pursue health and inspire others while I do it .

Jesus in Matthew 22: 39, commands us to ’

             ’’And the second is like unto it , Thou shalt love thy neighbor as 
                thyself ‘’

   
In Romans , Paul shares with us the promise :,

              ‘’And we know that all things work together for the good to them 
               Who love God  , to them called according to His purpose ‘’
               Romans 8:28 


There are no so and so if or when exclusions telling us who or where our neighbors will be  or what condition they  might be in . Just the authoritative commands directly from God that give us the freedom of authority  .


God sent His only son , Jesus , who when He had to leave sent a helper , The Holy Ghost . To give to us the ability to face any and all things , and possess all of His powers . Of the many gifts that He gives us fear and worry are not included , they are not spirits of God and we can change nothing by choosing to posses either one . However we can lose our peace that will guide us through any danger that life presents us with .

He gave us many verses that would help us , for He and His Father are not willing that any should perish . In the few years that He was here He faced and experienced ALL of same conditions that we have and will face . Before He left He gave to us these verses and many more like it to help us find our way to His home in Heaven . While here , like us now and in the foreseeable future He faced and endured seasons of no cash , food or even a place to lay His head . He faced the same conditions we did and do , but gave us the authority to be victorious in adversity .

           ‘’Take us the foxes , the little foxes that spoil the vines : 
              for our vines have tender grapes’’
                SOLOMON 2:15

         ‘’They say unto Him . Caesar’s . Then saith He unto them , render 
            therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesers ; and unto
            God the things that are Gods ‘’
             MATTHEW 22:21

All that you have that belongs to God is your soul , anything else is Caeser’s , and where he’s going you don’t want to .

           ‘’And Jesus saith unto him , Foxes have holes and  the birds
             of the air have nests , but the Son of man hath not a place
             where to lay His head ‘’
             MATTHEW 8:20
