On Good Authority (Pastor Vann Trapp)

God has commissioned us to do His business in this world in Jesus’ name. But what is the sign that we have the authority to do that? What is the proof of that commission? The word of God. But not just the act of quoting verses from the Bible. Instead, when we speak God’s Word straight from scripture or out of the wisdom of His Spirit for the circumstance, He backs it up. Those words become divinely powerful for tearing down spiritual strongholds, breaking through spiritual darkness, and defeating enemies far stronger and more numerous than we. By the power of the Spirit, the words we speak in Jesus’ name into and over people’s lives become effective. And He wants us to use those words to speak into all kinds of situations.
