Spiritual Readiness: Building Confidence in God’s Authority
Manage episode 459689954 series 3625237
In Episode 11, Cherie Sheridan and Daniel Bobinski explore practical ways for believers to grow in faith, wield spiritual authority, and apply God’s Word in daily life. They emphasize the power of immersing in Scripture, covering oneself with the blood of Jesus, and understanding the spiritual authority granted to believers.
Discussion Points:
Immersing in the Word of God:
- The Word of God is a foundational element for spiritual growth and authority.
- Daniel shares his practice of journaling and listening to sermons and teachings, while Cherie emphasizes reading Scripture aloud and studying its original Hebrew and Greek meanings.
- Tools like Blue Letter Bible (www.blb.org) can help deepen understanding of Scripture.
Seeking Revelation Through the Holy Spirit:
- Before studying Scripture, ask the Holy Spirit to illuminate the Word.
- The Spirit provides deeper understanding and insight, helping believers grasp God’s intentions and revelations beyond the surface level.
Binding the Enemy:
- Binding the enemy from speaking or acting is critical when engaging in deliverance or spiritual warfare.
- Cherie explains her approach: declaring the binding of ungodly voices in the name of Jesus and standing confidently in the authority of Christ.
- Daniel highlights the importance of praying over spaces used for ministry to establish a Holy Spirit-filled atmosphere.
Understanding Spiritual Authority:
- Believers are seated with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2) and have the authority to speak the Word of God with confidence.
- Cherie likens spiritual authority to a rookie cop gaining confidence through experience. Authority is present from the beginning, but confidence grows as believers exercise it.
Covering Yourself in the Blood of Jesus:
- The blood of Jesus serves as protection and a shield in spiritual warfare.
- Cherie shares powerful insights on pleading the blood of Jesus in spiritual battles and daily life, recounting testimonies of the blood’s protective power.
- Understanding the redemptive and cleansing nature of Christ’s blood is vital for victorious living.
The Process of Spiritual Growth:
- God often allows seasons of character-building to refine believers and strip away worldly influences.
- Spiritual maturity involves developing Christlike character and learning to walk in righteousness.
Resources Mentioned:
- Blue Letter Bible (www.blb.org)
