We Reign And Rule In His Name
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All
power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye
therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the
name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy
Ghost (Matthew 28:18-19).
In our opening scripture, Jesus said, “All power
is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” The
word “power” here is the Greek “exousia”; it means
authority. “All power,” not “some power,” has been
given to Jesus, in heaven and in earth.
The Bible says in Colossians 2:15, “And having
spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew
of them openly, triumphing over them in it.” When
Jesus died, He didn’t ascend to heaven immediately;
He had been made sin for us (2 Corinthians 5:21), and
had to go to hell on behalf of all men. When He got
to hell, there was an actual combat between Jesus and
the forces of darkness. The Bible says “...the hostile
princes and rulers He shook off from Himself, and
boldly displayed them as His conquests…” (Colossians
2:15 WNT).
In hell, Jesus invaded Satan’s domain, whipped
him and all his demons, and came out triumphantly
from the grave. When He came out, He said to His
disciples, “All hail!” (Matthew 28:9). It was a shout of
victory, because He’d conquered Satan for us and
given us dominion over the powers of darkness. Now,
it doesn’t matter whatever hierarchy of demons exist,
we’re superior to them; they’re under our feet.
No wonder He says, “Behold, I give unto you
power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over
all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by
any means hurt you” (Luke 10:19). As we spread the
message of Christ, taking the Gospel to the nations of
the world, we ought to be conscious of our authority
and dominion in Christ Jesus. We’re His ambassadors;
we’re to keep reigning and ruling in His Name, making
pupils of the nations, and filling the earth with the glory
of His presence. Hallelujah!
Confession
I’m born of God and therefore,
I’ve overcome the world. My
faith is producing results; I’m
walking in victory and dominion
over Satan and circumstances,
for the greater One lives in me.
Hallelujah!
