You have Dominion and Authority

Uncategorized 1 Minute


You shall decree a thing, and it shall be granted unto you, and the light shall shine upon thy ways. Job 22:28


Dominion is sovereignty or control regarding a territory of sovereign government. We know that heaven is God’s kingdom and the earth is his footstool. Isaiah 66:1


God created us to rule over the earth, to subdue it and to have dominion over every living thing that moves upon the face of the earth. Genesis 1:28 To subdue means to overcome or to bring under control.
When sin entered the world we lost that authority and the world was governed by the Prince of darkness who is our enemy.

Jesus’s birth, death and resurrection on the cross restored our relationship with God and to those who confess him to them he gives power and authority to become sons of God. John 1:12 Jesus also gives us the power to tread upon serpents and scorpions; and over every power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means harm us. Luke 10:19


Jesus’s death and resurrection also gives us victory over sin and death which the enemy tried to use to enslave us. 1 Corinthians 15:57 Jesus died so he could rise again in resurrection victory. When we accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, we also crucify our flesh to sin. So we no longer live unto the flesh but Christ Jesus lives in us. Galatians 2:20


And as we live in Christ Jesus, we also live in the power that raised him from the dead. Romans 8:11As Christians we walk in our God given authority and with the power that has been given unto us through Christ Jesus. We are also seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus and whatever things we bind on earth is also bound in heaven and whatever we loose on earth is also loosed in heaven. Ephesians 2:6; Mathew 18:18


Stand in your God given authority and take your place in the kingdom of God and manifest your destiny. Use your words to decree and declare over the atmosphere and access the sovereignty over the territory you have been called to govern. You have dominion and authority; walk in it!

Born and raised in Jamaica in a Christian family where my father is an ordained Pastor and Deacon who has served for over 50 years in the ministry. My father is also a trained musician and our family can be described as a musical family. I grew up in a small farming community in St. Peter’s, St. Andrew and my parents also have a small farm. I credit my gift of writing to my father who I watched and listened to over the years as he wrote sermons, poems and other recitals in his capacity in ministry. English has always been an easy subject for me and over the years I have developed an increased interest in writing. I am a Trainer, I sing and have a passion for worship, the spoken word and the free flow of the prophetic anointing. I am married to my best friend Andrew Christopher Young who is an advanced Musician and whose music you can find on YouTube and Facebook. I am a trained Coach and Mentor and I love experimenting with food so I love cooking. I enjoy trying cultural dishes from across the world and I view food as an entry into cultures and languages.
