| Divine credit card Many of us have had the experience of using our parents credit card. We didn’t earn the money that backs the card and we were not responsible for paying the bill after we ran up the charges. This is an example of what we have with Jesus. John 14:13 Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. When we are surrendered to the authority of Jesus over our lives, His kingdom purposes will be fulfilled in our lives, and He will move heaven and earth to make it happen. In fact, He told us to make this very request in the Lords prayer. Matthew 6:10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. We have this authority because Jesus won all authority by His death and resurrection and He bestows it on those who not only have believed in Him, but are surrendered to Him in order to carry out His kingdom agenda on earth as it is in heaven. Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Power is the ability to accomplish the divine task at hand. Authority is the right to exercise that power on Jesus’ behalf. I can have my parents credit card given to me to use (authority) and have unlimited funds backing that card (power) but never take it out and use it for the purpose that it was given to me. Jesus has given us His divine credit card, that is bought and paid for with His blood, and there are unlimited funds available for us to use for kingdom advancement. We have power and authority to do business on His behalf. One of the reasons we dont experience power or authority is because we are trying to use a legitimate credit card for illegitimate means.
