Authority over Sickness

Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you (Luke 10:19).

Authority over sickness is a function of identity. Authority always flows from the one who knows who he or she isโ€”the boss, the leader, the one in charge. When we see ourselves as God sees us, we will act with His authority. The believer who has a revelation of Christโ€™s authority can use that authority over the works of darkness. Godโ€™s authority is released through our words, but the words must come from a true understanding of who we are in Christ.

Born-again Christians have spiritual authority, but most have no idea what that means. Many simply believe that God is in control and He will do what He wants. Few understand that they actually have the authority to be in control over the works of the enemy in their lives. Until we have a revelation of our identity in Christ, we will remain in the role of a petitioner of Godโ€™s mercy, but not an enforcer of Godโ€™s will.

You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Who is in you? Is He greater than sickness? Are you one with Him? Sickness must obey a superior authority. Like a tree or a mountain, sickness can recognize a superior authority.

Do you believe that you have authority in the name of Jesus over any sickness or affliction in your body? I am not talking about mental, doctrinal agreement, but a true revelation of your authority in Christ.

But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him (1 Corinthians 6:17).

While most would say that โ€œGod can heal if He wants to,โ€ few understand that the authority of Jesus lives in them and that they have the right to walk in that authority.

Taking Off The Masks

Mark 7:6, 'He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.'

MARK 7:6-9
This is the biblical definition of a hypocrite, 'someone whose words and heart (actions) don't agree.' A hypocrite may act the part of a Christian or he may talk like Christ, but he won't do both. When both confession and action from the heart are consistent with God's Word, there is salvation (Rom. 10:9-1.

The word 'hypocrite' comes from the Greek word 'hupokrites,' meaning 'the playing of a part on the stage; an actor.' It was a custom for Greek and Roman actors to use large masks, when acting, to disguise their true identity. Hence, hypocrisy became 'the feigning of beliefs, feelings, or virtues that one does not hold or possess; insecurity' (American Heritage Dictionary).

The dictionary defines 'dissimulate' as 'to disguise under a feigned appearance.' The Greek word means 'without hypocrisy, unfeigned.' It has become customary in our society to conceal our real feelings behind a hypocritical mask. Although we should be tactful and not purposely say things to offend people, there is a time and a place for speaking the truth, even if it isn't popular.

In Leviticus 19:17, the Lord said, 'Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.' This verse is saying that if we fail to rebuke our brother when we see sin approaching, then we hate him. Many people have concealed their true feelings about evil under the pretense of, 'I just love them too much to hurt their feelings.' The truth is, they just love themselves too much to run the risk of being rejected. That's hypocrisy. Motives - not actions - are usually what makes a person a hypocrite. Let God's love be your motivation today and everyday.
