OPEN HEAVEN 21 APRIL 2021 BIBLE READING ACTS 13:8-12
8. But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
9. Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,
10. And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
11. And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
12. Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

GOOD MORNING BELOVED,
PERSONAL DAILY CONFESSION: I confess today, I am the child of the God that loves unconditionally. He is my strength and deliverer, He is my source and defence. He is Jehovah my hope and light. He is my everlasting father and great shepherd. My life will never be ridden by guilt or shame because God has not given me the spirit of fear but of love and sound mind. I am free in Christ and I live in liberty always. Hallelujah!
OPEN HEAVEN 21 APRIL 2021 MESSAGE
It is one thing to know that you have authority and another to exercise it.
In the Bible reading of today, we see Paul exercising spiritual authority over an agent of the devil.
Had he not known his authority in Christ, this sorcerer would have frustrated his preaching.
God is not pleased when His children refuse to exercise the authority He has given to them. We see this in Exodus 14:15-16, when God said to Moses;
… Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
Moses used the authority he had and that put an end to the bondage of the children of Israel.
The truth however is that you cannot exercise the spiritual authority you do not possess.
If you attempt to, you would end up spiritually wounded like the seven sons of Sceva in Acts 19:14-16.
How can you enjoy this spiritual authority?
First, you must establish a relationship with the One who has the highest spiritual authority – Jesus Christ. Mark 3:14-15 says:
And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils:
Secondly, you must play by the rules. An adage says nothing good goes for nothing.
Once, the disciples wondered why they could not exercise spiritual authority.
Jesus told them that they had to first give themselves to prayer and fasting (Mark 9:29).
Thirdly, identify and believe genuine ministers on whom God has deposited His authority and obey the word of God that comes through them.
You too would then begin to enjoy spiritual authority according, to (2 Chronicle 20:20).
A simple “God bless you” from a man with spiritual authority can open the door to tremendous blessing in your life.
This is why I wonder why people still ask me to pray for them after I have authoritatively pronounced “God bless you” on them. I say to you today; God bless you.
