How to Claim Your Authority in Jesus as a Believer

by Marijo Phelps⁽¹³⁵⁾ Red Star

When your mind is going FIVE (or more) directions at once – take authority over your mind in Jesus name and command your mind to come into submission to Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

Philippians 2:5
[ The Humbled and Exalted Christ ] Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus. (NKJV)

The scripture wouldn’t state this if it were not possible – God is faithful!

Take authority over the things in your life which are defeating you.

2 Corinthians 10:3-5

³ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. ⁴ For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, ⁵ casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ (NKJV)

Prayer: Father I want to glorify You. I need your help. AMEN

Christ in us is the hope of glory. Fruit bearing glorifies Him.

Colossians 1:27
To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Authority in Jesus comes in various ways:

1.     Fasting – deny your flesh and Christ comes forward

2.     “Word of God” is a feast – stand on the Word – claim those promises – let His Word change you

3.     Prayer – don’t just ask, get a notebook and listen to Him – write it down

4.     Praise

5.     Thankfulness

6.     Service – being available to be obedient

7.     Giving

Romans 5:3-5 ³ And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; ⁴ and perseverance, character; and character, hope. ⁵ Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. (NKJV)
