Enemy to Authority

1 John 1:8-9

New King James Version (NKJV)
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Matthew 18:18-20
18 “Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
19 “Again I say[c] to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them

      The biggest enemy to you using and operating in your authority is fear.  The bible tells us that the just(Christians) should live by faith.  The faith walk and having faith is not or should not be based on our experiences or our circumstances.  It should be solely based on God's Word. 
     The scripture today tells us that all of us have sinned.  Your Pastor has sinned.  Your mother has sinned.  Your friends have sinned.  We all have sinned.  However our sins if we confess them before God, do not negate your authority.  That is what the cross was all about.  When Jesus was crucified he died for your healing.  He died for your inheritance.  He died for your authority to rule over the enemy.  He died to give us life.
     The devil is your enemy and he does not want you to discover or utilize your authority as Christians.  When we bind and loose, we forbid or give permission to things to happen in heaven and in earth simply by using your mouth.  What you say is important.  What you believe is important because it will influence what you release into the world through your mouth.
    Today, take the time to meditate and study the scriptures.  It exposes our enemy.  Fear is an enemy.  Doubt is an enemy.  We must trust the Word of God more than our circumstances.  I did not say ignore your circumstances.  God's word is more real than you sitting at your desk reading this thought.  It is more real than what you may be going through.  Fear is an enemy and if you are in fear, faith does not work.
