The Joy of the Journey
Kingdom Authority
Living in Kingdom authority is deeply rooted in the teachings of the Bible. It involves understanding and embracing God’s sovereignty in our lives and allowing His Word to guide our thoughts, actions, and decisions. When we operate in Kingdom authority, we live out our true identity as children of God, aligning with His will and purpose for our lives.
One of the fundamental principles of living in Kingdom authority is understanding the power of our words. Proverbs 18:21 states, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.” This verse reminds us of the importance of speaking life-giving words that align with God’s truth. When we speak words of faith, love, and encouragement, we align our words with God’s Word and release His power into our circumstances.
Another crucial aspect of Kingdom authority is recognizing our identity as co-heirs with Christ. Romans 8:17 tells us,” and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.” This truth reminds us that we have been given the authority to walk in victory, peace, and abundance through our relationship with Jesus. When we fully embrace our identity as children of God, we can confidently walk in Kingdom authority, knowing that the Holy Spirit empowers usto live out God’s purposes.
Living in Kingdom authority also involves surrendering our will to God’s will. In Matthew 6:10, Jesus teaches us to pray, ” Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” This verse reflects the heart of Kingdom authority – a willingness to submit to God’s perfect plan and trust in His timing and provision. When we surrender our desires and plans to God, we invite His Kingdom to reign in our lives and allow His authority to guide our steps.
Furthermore, living in Kingdom authority requires us to walk in obedience to God’s commandments. John 14:15 states, ” If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” Obedience to God’s Word is a tangible expression of our love for Him and a demonstration of our trust in His wisdom and goodness. When we align our actions with God’s will, we are positioning ourselves to receive His blessings and experience the fullness of life that He has promised to us.
As we strive to live in Kingdom authority, we must also cultivate a lifestyle of prayer and intimacy with God. Philippians 4:6-7 encourages us, ” do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Prayer is a powerful tool that connects us to the heart of God and allows us to partner with Him in bringing His Kingdom to earth.
In conclusion, living in the Kingdom of authority is a transformative journey that requires faith, obedience, and a deep relationship with God. By aligning our thoughts, words, and actions with His Word, we can walk confidently in the authority He has given us as His beloved children. As we surrender to His will, embrace our identity in Christ, and seek His Kingdom above all else, we can experience the abundant life He has destined for us. Let us strive to live each day with purpose and passion, knowing that the Holy Spirit empowers us to fulfill God’s divine plan for our lives. May His Kingdom come, and His will be done in our lives.
