Power and authority are two different things 2. Power and authority, to be effective and legitimate, have ...read more

    Unleashing Authority And Identity In Christ

    Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Mar 25, 2021
     | 6,931 views

    Now it is impossible to activate authority without having a recognized identity. Since authority organizes and drives itself through our accepted identity.

    As believers, we do not know how to react as we are witness to the weaknesses and unpreparedness of our supposed technological advancement in addressing the problems of our days: although, knowledge has increased exponentially? Even now, the world is looking up to the average believer to proffer ...read more

    Jochebed And Other Women

    Contributed by Dennis King on Dec 18, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,178 views

    Which woman of the Old Testament Bible had three famous children? One of whom was Yekutiel? As a hint, she was the first woman in the Bible whose name is compounded with the name of Jehovah God. We didn't actually learn her godly name right away. She was just called a Levite woman.

    The lady we will study first is Jochebed, a mother who was incredibly confident, creative, and courageous! Her son was, in my opinion, the major character in the Old Testament. Therefore, Jochebed may deserve more recognition than she has been previously given. Our information of her is quite ...read more

    It is impossible to dominate in the natural realm if Jesus does not dominate in the spiritual realm!

    Is Jesus King supreme in your life? Every child of God must allow the King to be supreme in order to exercise supremely the authority of the King!

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 29, 2025
     | 108 views

    God has bestowed authority to human beings whom He has created in His own image. This authority was exercised by many men of God all through the bible. However, Jesus was the perfect one whose authority astounded everyone who met or heard Him.

    Today’s meditation is based on Numbers 22:6, “They outnumber us, so please come and put a curse on them for me. Then perhaps we will be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land. I know that when you pronounce a blessing, people are blessed, and when you pronounce a curse, they are placed ...read more

    The Reason We Submit To Authority Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 15, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,821 views

    Obedience that originates from this kind of fear of penalty is not true obedience. That is the reason why the apostle Paul exhorts us in Romans 13:5, that our obedience must stem from our conscience and not because we fear the consequences of disobedience.

    The Reason We Submit to Authority In Romans 13:5 we read, “We must obey therefore, not only in order to escape punishment, but also for conscience' sake.” (WNT) All of us are familiar with the principle that if we don’t obey rules and submit to those in authority, we will get punished, and ...read more
