Quotes from the book:

GOD'S ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY

    ...."God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in many prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world. And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high; having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they"….

Hebrews 1:1-4 NASB

      As we begin this study on spiritual authority we are going to study the different aspects of God's authority and find out how this authority pertains to our own walks so that we can clearly understand that we need to be wholly subjected to the "authority" of God - in order that we might ALWAYS fulfil His will, in His way, in His power. To begin to gain a clear revelation of the authority of God we must understand that all of the "acts" of God issue forth from His throne, and His throne is established on His authority. All things have been created through God's authority and all the physical laws of the universe are maintained by that same authority. Let us open our hearts wide in order that we might begin to comprehend the absoluteness and the omnipotence of our God!

     "The Word of God and the authority of God and the power of God cannot be separated. God alone is the "supreme authority" over all things."

     "A failure to discern and comprehend the "absoluteness" of God's authority will cause one to fall short in the carrying out of God's will for their lives."

     "Satan's intent to set his throne above the throne of God was the thing which violated God's authority (the principle of self- exaltation). Every child of God must have a clear revelation of the fact that the "principle of Satan" is rebellion and, thus, those who would truly serve God must be completely separated from ANY attitude of rebellion towards Him."

     "Because of the failure of many to give God first place in their lives - and, thus, be subject to His authority - there has been a hindrance and a delay in God unwrapping His "gifts" to the Church."

     "God has never made the provision for us to obey "flesh and blood", but rather His authority and Anointing on, and in, men and women."

     "The Christian who has not placed God's Word first in their life shall never be used to any great degree by God until they do. If our deepest heart desire is to come into the place of abiding in God's Word then we must eat, sleep, drink and breathe the Word in our remaining time on this earth!"

     "A believer's action should never be governed by the knowledge of "good and evil" (the mind of the flesh), it should be motivated only by a sense of obedience to God's Word."

     "Rebellion is the principle of Satan; obedience is the principle of Christ – the Anointed One and His Anointing!"
