My wife and I host a simple house church gathering in our home on Wednesday evenings. Last night after sharing a meal together and then a time of worship, we read together “The Daily Prayer of Freedom.” I have used it several times in my morning reflections. We have newly baptized members of our house church, new to their faith, and I am training them up in prayer.
As I read through the prayer again with our group, this phrase stood out to me, that is repeated throughout the prayer, “I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ…”
This phrase begins many paragraphs through the prayer:
I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ over my life today, over my home, my family, my household, my vehicles, finances, over all my kingdom and domain…..
I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ against Satan, against his kingdom, against every foul and unclean spirit…..
I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ against every foul power and black art…
I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ against every witch, cult, and coven, every channel of black arts to me. I cut them off in the name of the Lord….
I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ between me and every human being—their spirit, soul, body, their sin, warfare, and their household….
We have the Spirit of the living God inside of each of us that call Jesus Lord. We walk in that authority. We carry that authority into every room, gathering or situation we walk into, whether it is our living room at home, at work, school, social gatherings, Walmart, or wherever we step our feet. When was the last time you claimed, or even thought about this authority when you walk into a room?
My family, I pray you are remind of the authority in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ you carry within you and always walk in. I pray you speak it out loud and claim the authority of Jesus Christ over yourself and all the situations your feet will carry you into today, and everyday, in Jesus’ name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you my friends!
