Delegated Authority

Delegated authority.
“And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.”
Luke 10:17

The word subject in our opening scripture is from the Greek word hupotasso. It means to arrange under to obey, to do obeisance to. This means that the devils have been arranged under us to obey us. This means that the posture that demons have towards us that are in Christ is the posture to obey us.

The word name in our opening scripture is from the Greek word 'onoma' referring to authority, rank or character. Therefore, because we are in Christ, we have the right to use His name.

Jesus has given you His name to function with on earth. In other words, you have the right to use His authority and His rank to command obedience concerning things in heaven, on earth and under the earth because, according to Philippians 2:9-11, His Name has authority in all three realms. Therefore, whenever you speak in the Name of Jesus, it is as though Jesus is speaking.

This is your rhema today; according to Mark 16:17-18, In His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Amen.

Prayer:
Dear Father, I thank you for giving me the authority and right to use the Name of Jesus to command obedience concerning things in heaven, on earth and under the earth. To you alone I ascribe all the praise and glory forever and ever. Amen.
