What is this series about?
One of the most important areas that the devil has robbed christians through the years is in the area of Authority. It is a key to the Kingdom of God and a key to successful living. This series looks at the foundations of authority and the ways in which we exercise it. The war is over and the battle has been won by Christ. The bible is clear that Satan has been defeated so how do we apply that to our lives today so that we live as "more than conquerors"? Find out in this series.
Week 1 - Under your feet
January 9th 2011 Speaker: Andrew Toogood
Andrew Toogood speaking. Do you know what it feels like to be powerless? Many christians live believing that they have very little power or authority to change their world or their circumstances. In Mat chpt 6 Jesus taught us to pray that His ingdom should come here on earth as it is in heaven. That has been massively misunderstood because the implications are incredible. Andrew looks at the authority that God has placed in every single Christian - it is greater than ANYTHING else you will ever come against - including the devil and the demonic. Incredible power and truth that will help you to see exactly what Christ has put in you so that you start to live the truth of being "more than a conqueror"
Week 2 - The Nature of the Battle
January 16th 2011 Speaker: Andrew Toogood
Andrew Toogood speaking. Christ has placed in every believer the authority to speak and see the kingdom of God demonstrated in their lives today. Why is it then that many Christians do not see this happening? In Ephesians Paul prays that the church would wake up to what has actually been put inside them - many people are fighting every day against a devil that has been totally defeated. Understanding then what the tactics are and how the true nature of the battle that we are in is the first step in walking in your authority. This truth will help you and release you to walk in a greater understanding of what Christ has done in you.
Week 3 - What do you think?
January 23rd 2011 Speaker: Andrew Toogood
Andrew Toogood. If the devil and the demonic have been totally defeated by the work of Christ then how do they have inroads into your life? We have established that the only authority that the enemy has is that which is given to him by you. How does that actually work? It starts with your mind. Your life follows the pattern of your dominant thoughts and it is in this area that you concede ground and rob yourself of the freedom that Jesus has for you. Do you want to flow in authority? Then it starts with what you allow in your mind..
Week 4 - Authority in Prayer
January 30th 2011 Speaker: Jill Boyd
Jill Boyd Speaking. How does your authority actually flow and how do you take what God has done in your spirit and actually see it come to pass in the every day world that we live in? Jill looks at how Jesus taught us to pray. Far too many Christians have an experience of prayer that is about pleading with God to do something for them. Jesus however had a different view on how we should approach problems. He taught us to pray with authority. This teaching will help you to see freedom in areas that you may have been struggling with for a long time...
Week 5 - Authority in Real Life
February 6th 2011 Speaker : Andrew Toogood
Andrew Toogood speaking. How do you as a normal christian see the power of the authority that Jesus has put in you released into your everyday world? Authority, when caught and understood, results in you taking action. In Mark 11 Jesus laid out some principles as to how we can use our authority. Many people have not understood this or do not do what Jesus said in this area as a normal course in their lives. To see the power of your authority in real life then it starts by doing what Jesus said.....
Week 6 - How do I believe?
February 13th 2011 Speaker : Andrew Toogood
Andrew Toogood speaking. Our authority given to us by God is not the same as magic. We are not called to be Christian Harry Potters who wave wands and things change. Our authority flows from our relationship with Jesus. He has place His authority in us and we appropriate it by believing. Many Christians get themselves tied up in knots over the whole issue of "do I have enough faith" and "do I believe enough". Andrew looks at what Jesus said about this and the answer is so simple it will set you free from bondage and fear about having enough "belief" so that you can flow in the authority that Jesus has given you.
