KNOW YOUR AUTHORITY IN CHRIST AND USE IT
(IJUE MAMLAKA YAKO NDANI YA KRISTO NA UITUMIE)
Mind you. You don’t have all the authority like Jesus
Matthew 28:18,19 “And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, 'All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…..”
Philippians 2:8-11 “8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. 9 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
You cannot trample the devil if Jesus has not crushed him under your feet
Romans 16:20 “And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.”
Luke 10:19 "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.”
James 4:7 “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.”
Jude 1:9 “Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"”
You only have delegated authority for a specific area and not absolute authority like Jesus Christ
Mark 3:14-15 “14 Then He appointed twelve, that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach, 15 and to have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons.”
Your authority over a village can not be used over a district or region.
However, your authority is dysfunctional if you don’t use it (E.g., Traffic police).
IJUE MAMLAKA YAKO NDANI YA KRISTO NA UITUMIE
Tambua kwamba huna mamlaka yote kama Yesu
Mathayo 28:18,19 “Yesu akaja nao akasema nao, akasema, Nimepewa mamlaka yote mbinguni na duniani; basi, enendeni, mkawafanye mataifa yote kuwa wanafunzi.
Wafilipi 2:8-11 “8 Naye alipoonekana ana sura kama mwanadamu, alijinyenyekeza akawa mtii hata mauti, naam, mauti ya msalaba.9 Kwa hiyo tena Mungu alimwadhimisha mno, akamkirimia Jina lile lipitalo kila jina; kwa utukufu wa Mungu Baba.”
Huwezi kumkanyaga shetani ikiwa Yesu hajamponda chini ya miguu yako
Warumi 16:20 “Na Mungu wa amani atamseta Shetani chini ya miguu yenu upesi. Neema ya Bwana wetu Yesu Kristo na iwe pamoja nanyi. Amina.
Luka 10:19 "Tazama, nimewapa amri ya kukanyaga nyoka na nge, na nguvu zote za yule adui, wala hakuna kitu kitakachowadhuru."
Yakobo 4:7 “Basi mtiini Mungu, Mpingeni Shetani, naye atawakimbia.”
Yuda 1:9 ““Lakini Mikaeli, malaika mkuu, alipokuwa akishindana na Ibilisi, alipohojiana juu ya mwili wa Musa, hakuthubutu kuleta mashitaka ya kumtukana, bali alisema, Bwana na akukemee.”
Umekabidhi mamlaka katika eneo maalum tu na sio mamlaka kamili kama Yesu Kristo.
Marko 3:14-15 "14 Kisha akaweka Thenashara, wapate kuwa pamoja naye, na kwamba awatume kuhubiri, 15 na wawe na uwezo wa kutoa pepo."
Mamlaka yako juu ya kijiji haiwezi kutumika katika wilaya au mkoa.
Lakini pia mamlaka yako haifanyi kazi ikiwa huitumii (k.m., Polisi wa Usalama Barabarani).
