TOPIC: The Exercise Of Our Authority (Rhapsody of Realities 1 April 2022)

“And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death” (Revelation 12:10-11).

Rhapsody Of Realities 1 April 2022 MESSAGE:

How wonderful this is! These verses are not talking about us the Church but about the Tribulation saints. This is going to happen during the Great Tribulation period. We would have gone to heaven at this time. While these saints will have their role in this spiritual conflict as stated, the actual fight would be done by angels, led by Michael the Archangel.

Michael the Archangel does not fight for the Church. The Bible shows us he fights for Israel. Daniel 12:1 says, “And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people…” If you read it all the way to the 7th verse, it becomes even more lucid that it is dealing with Israel. But in our dispensation, the angels only fight in our behalf in things we do not know about and things we do not do anything about; otherwise, they generally minister in our behalf (Hebrews 1:14).

Angels do not need to fight in our behalf when we exercise our authority in Christ. Why? The demons bow in response to our authority, because we are using the Name of Jesus. His Name is greater than every principality and power and every name that is named, both in this world and in that which is to come!

In Christianity we are not called to fight with devils; we cast them out: “And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons…” (Mark 16:17 NKJV). He gave us complete authority over Satan and all evil spirits. Praise God!

CONFESSION

I am seated together with Christ in the heavenly realms, far above principalities, powers, and the rulers of the darkness of this world. My authority is that of the blessed Lord Jesus Christ – the only true God! Now therefore, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, I affirm I have power over Satan, evil spirits and their works, I break their influence over leaders of governments and their agencies, that the Name of the Lord may be glorified. Amen.

Luke 10:18-19 (KJV) “And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 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.”

Psalm 149:5-9 (KJV) “Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand; To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people; To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron; To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the Lord.”

Ephesians 2:5-6 (KJV) “Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved:) And hath raised us up together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus;”
