DIVINE AUTHORITY OF MINISTRY-GIFTS – Part 1
Posted on May 6, 2012 | No Comments(Chapter 4- The Key Of The Authority Of the Ministry) I am sorry space does not allow me to tell of the very real conflict with the powers of darkness and of the glorious victories. We won them through faith in the Word of God, by the anointing of the Holy spirit. But one thing I must share is this: the divine authority of the ministry. I am not referring to a professional ministry, nor of a self-appointed ministry, nor of mere skillful preaching or great oratory. I am... -
Chapter 4 – The Key Of The Authority Of the Ministry
Posted on April 29, 2012 | 1 CommentIntroduction We have considered three important keys of authority, namely: the authority of Christ, the authority of the believer, and the authority of the Word of God. These represent our authority of access to the abundant provision of God for all believers, and our authority over Satan and his works of darkness. We can release captives from the works of the devil. All believers in Christ have the privilege of using these three keys of authority. However, there are certain ones whom the Lord has called and equipped for... -

Believers Are Given The Word Of Authority And Power Jesus spoke God’s words: “The words I speak unto you, I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works” (John 14:10).

Chapter 3 – The Key Of The Authority Of God’s Word
Posted on April 8, 2012 | No CommentsIntroduction How can we make god’s Word come to pass? How can we make it WORK? this was the problem that was pressing upon my heart and mind during the winter months of 1953. As mentioned in our previous chapters, we had experienced seasons of great blessing in our ministry. Yet I was to face another crisis – another period of dissatisfaction and feeling utterly inadequate and frustrated. Again and again I would read the startling promises and declarations in the Word of God concerning us as believers –... -
OUR AUTHORITY IN CHRIST
Posted on April 1, 2012 | No Comments(Chapter 2 - The Key Of The Authority Of Believer) OUR AUTHORITY IN CHRIST Because we are declared by God to be in Christ, all that is said concerning Christ is said also concerning us.

Therefore we have authority (Luke 10:19). “Behold, I give unto you power [authority] to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power [ability to... -

This union of the believer with Christ is seen in two aspects: our legal position (as a relative of His) and our vital indwelling. 1. Our Legal Position 1. This is our...
