Here is a message from Joyce Meyer, which is titled, “Believe the Word—Part 2.” The text for the message is from Luke 10:19, which says, “Behold, I have given you power and authority to tread on serpents and scorpions and power over all the power the enemy possesses, and nothing shall by any means harm you.”
Pastor Joyce teaches us in this message that God has given us authority, but we have to exercise that authority. For us to be able to exercise that authority, we must believe that we have it. We have to walk in the world like someone who has authority. Hold your head up and don’t be afraid of everything that comes along. Don’t worry about so many things. As Christians, we have to know and believe that God is for us, that He is in, and that we have the power.
When God said that he has given us authority, that doesn’t mean that you can’t break a bone, fall down, or hurt yourself in some way, but it does mean that ultimately God will take care of you. We must understand that God will take care of all our needs, and when we are in difficult situations, he will deliver us. Paul said to live is to die, so we don’t even have to be afraid of death because, for a believer, death is just like going through a door into another realm because we’re eternal beings and we’re going to live forever with God.
Mark 16:17 “He says these signs will follow those who believe, and these signs will accompany those who believe in my name; they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; and it goes on and on and on; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well.” We have to believe in the word of God; that is how we know about our authority.
