Authority For Impact


For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. Matthew 8:9-10

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: God puts His children in authority in order to give them influence in their generation. Continue...


God desires His children to be in authority. God is a God of purpose, design and objectivity. Whatever He does is done with purpose and profit in mind. He does things that are both purposeful and beneficial. Therefore, God wants His children to be in authority because authority brings influence. God puts His children in authority in order to give them influence in their generation. It is possible to be generationally influential by the frequency of authority.

Joseph influenced and impacted the whole of Egypt positively by being in authority. Daniel impacted and influenced the whole of Babylon positively and spiritually by being in authority. Queen Esther impacted and influenced the whole of the Persian Empire positively and spiritually because she was in authority. One thing that God wants to do is to position His children over families, states, territories, regions, organisations, institutions and possibly over nations so that these places can be influenced maximally and positively for God. Beloved, there is a limit to which your impact and influence can be felt if you are not outstanding in life, lack authority or are not in charge of your field or sphere. But you shall step into that authority, in the Name of Jesus.

Remember this: God puts His children in authority in order to give them influence in their generation.

ASSIGNMENT (S):
  1. Impact and influence your world positively.
  2. Endeavour to be outstanding in everything you do.
PRAYER: Lord, help me to manifest authority in order to assume influence, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: Those who dodge responsibilities are excused from authority. Culled from 365 WISDOM CAPSULES by Dr Paul Enenche.
