Step Into Your Authority.


Step Into Your Authority. 

Often, we feel condemnation and rejection. When we come from a place of brokenness and rejection (which we almost all do), initially Jesus heals our heart but it takes time, for changes in our life happen slowly. At some point though, we have to let go of the rejection. When we hang on to rejection, we go through the same issues time and time again. Because God set us free, we shouldn’t be living in condemnation and rejection.

God sees us through His Son and when we accept rejection, we’re not accepting His grace over us and He stands at a distance. He is still there, but not as close as we want and need. This makes it more difficult for Him to act on our behalf (never impossible, but easier if we do God’s will and let go of rejection) and it’s why we go through the same issues over and over.

So, He sees us through His Son and if we’re in His Son, we are overcomers, not rejects. We have to get rid of the spirit of rejection, if we want to overcome our issues in life. We do that by constantly focusing on His word of love, and of our righteousness and worthiness in Him.

When we let go of rejection and stand in God’s authority, then He will move mightily on our behalf. We need to be people of authority, so we can show and tell the world what God has done for us and when people see that in us, then they will listen. Then they will want what we have.

This snippet was written in relation to a woman who tried to introduce me to Jesus, when I was a non-believer. Her son had died in an accident. Her son-in-law had died of cancer and her daughter was going through cancer. At the time I thought she was a crackpot, after all, who would follow a God that allowed all that to happen?

What I didn’t know then was what kind of spiritual strength she had. I didn’t know her well. I didn’t know her level of faith. Maybe she was still in a transition phase and didn’t yet have a grasp on her authority. Perhaps she came into her authority at a later date. People die, regardless of our authority. People also live, when a believer steps up to the plate.

We all need to step it up a notch. We all need to step into our authority, the authority that moves mountains and when we can do that, then we can say to this mountain; Move! And it will be cast into the sea.

You Were Created To Be Genius.


3 Tips to Successful Living:

1.      If you spend 5 minutes a day learning about saving and investing, in 6 months you’ll know more than most people on the planet. It doesn’t take a lot of time, nor a lot of money to become wealthy. It just takes a consistent effort. Don’t just study saving and investing, but act on what you learn, that way you’ll be working towards your future wealth creation.

2.      Jesus is real and anyone who tells you otherwise, doesn’t know what they’re talking about. People who’ve never studied God and His word, don’t know the truth. If they knew the truth, the truth would set them free; free from poverty, depression, illness, addiction, poor relationships, lack of knowledge and much more. So, begin to spend a few minutes reading your bible each morning.

3.      You were created to be genius. No matter what you were told growing up, genius lies within you. All you need to do is read the right material. And if you don’t like reading, listen to you tube. These days you have video tutorials and audible books, where someone reads the book to you, so there is no excuse for not learning.

The bible states you have not, because you ask not. The bible also promises wisdom. How about you ask for wisdom? It’s a good place to start and it’s a promise of God and God’s word is truth. If He makes a promise to you, which He has done through His word, He keeps it.

God tells you He’s placed His word higher than even His name, that’s how much He values His word. Therefore, if you ask for wisdom and God promises wisdom – wisdom you shall have. His word will not return void. What He says, He means.

Aim to be the best in your field. Study from the best people in the world, those who are already successful in your field of choice and it stands to reason that some of their knowledge rubs off on you. Saturate yourself, meditate and dwell in the area you wish to succeed at and you won’t be able to help but improve.

Don’t we all wish there was a ‘success book for life?’ Well, I’m here to tell you; the bible is the ‘success book’ of life. You can’t leave it sitting on the shelf though, you have to read it. Leaving it on the shelf is like leaving your car in the garage and hoping the car will take you places. Unless you open the door, put the key in the ignition and turn the car on, you won’t get anywhere.

The bible’s the same – unless you open the book, read through its pages, absorb and act on what it’s telling you, you won’t get anywhere. Read your bible, trust what it’s telling you and take action. Simple.

Have you noticed no one says; Oh my Allah, or oh my Buddha? All the nations of the Earth exclaim: Oh my God! That’s because God has put a part of Himself within us and that part cries out to Him, the One who is in all and above all. Whether in complete joy, or in despair, it’s the Great God of Heaven that we call to.

Take the well-lit path, the straight way. Don’t meander through life, expecting things to change eventually. Make the change happen yourself. God will open a way through your darkest moments. Just follow Him.
