Divine Authority
Text Matt 16:19
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind ( declared to be improper and unlawful) onnearth must be what is already bound in heaven; whatever you loose ( declared lawful) on earth must be what is already loosed in heaven.
Reference text
Isaiah 22:22-23
And the key of the house of David I will lay upon his shoulder; he shall open and no one shall shut, he shall shut and no one shall open. And I will fasten him like a peg or a nail in a firm place; and he will become a throne of honor and glory to his father's house.
We are going to see here first by what authority we wok. Second who gave us authority. Thirdly, the essence of authority. Fourth the aftereffects of our authority.
Definition
Authority is the right to give orders or make decisions. It is a legal power, or a right to command. It is a warrant order permission ( Matt21).
Authority gives access to do things you can't do on your own.
From the above Svripures, Jesus confirmed our authority and what our authority could do.
First we have authority to declare improper what heaven has declared improper.
There a lot of things heaven has declared improper and they are:
1 Heaven has declared entrance of Satan to heaven improper thereby casting him out of heaven permanently.
2 Heaven has declared sickness and diseases improper thereby making heaving a place of life and joy permanently.
3 Heaven has declared sin improper thus making heaven a very beautiful holy place.
4 Heaven has declared poverty improper. (Deut 8:18). Heaven used gold and other precious materials to make heaven a glorious domain.
5 Heaven has declared death improper( Deut 30: 19). Because of that God afvided us to chose life and blessing. He akso sent Jesus to destroy he that has the power of death and to collect the key of death and hades.
6 Heaven has declared slavery and all kinds of satanic works improper. That's why the scripture says that "For this purpose the Son of God was manifested that He might destroy all works of the devil". Jesus came to undo all works of devil. We are also commissioned to declare all works of the devil improper and to undo them.
I stand to declare all works of the devil in your lives improper. Therefore I command all of them to be destroyed now in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ.
I bind the devil and all his works in your life now.
I bind sicknesses and diseases
I bind poverty and curses
I bind death and stroke in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ.
I bind witches and wizards and their witchcraft activities in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ.
