EXERCISING DOMINION
Main text: Luke 10:19 – ‘I have given you authority to trample upon snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy and nothing will harm you’
‘Then Peter said, ’Silver and gold I do not have but what I have I give you, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth walk. Taking him by the hand, he helped him up and instantly, the man’s feet and angle became strong’ – Acts 3:6-7
God’s original purpose for man was to have a representative on earth. We are made in the image of God to dominate – rule, control, take charge and command our environment. You have been empowered to exercise dominion over situations that challenge you. You were not created a coward but you are a creature of power and authority. Most Christians are ignorant of how to access this power and therefore become pawns in the hands of the devil. The Christian life should be a DIY (Do It Yourself) walk through faith in Christ. This does not imply that someone cannot pray for you but rather it means that you should recognise who you are in Christ and be in charge. You are risen with Christ and seated with Christ in heavenly realms – above witches and wizards.
You have the authority to command circumstances to work in your favour, change the activities in an interview situation and get that your dream job. The word of faith is already in your mouth. All you need to do is open your mouth and make declarations over your life and things will begin to work in your favour. The one (Jesus Christ) who has the name above all names is with you. Use that name – Jesus and challenge every obstacle on your way.
EXERCISING YOUR DOMINION DISABLES THE ENEMY AND MAKES HIM GIVE IN FOR YOU
Prayer Point: I declare today that I shall have dominion over my territory and over everything speaking contrary to my life.
