Kingdom Authority: Exercising God's Rule in Your Life
Are you living with the authority God has given you?
Many are desperate for power, but power is useless without the authority to use it. God has given His people His power and His authority to be used for His purposes. This is kingdom authority, or the divinely-authorized right and responsibility delegated to believers to act on God’s behalf in spiritually ruling over His creation under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. However, only those who are fully surrendered to Christ and aware of this gift use it.
In this book, Dr. Tony Evans, pastor and bestselling author, will help you discover how
Kingdom authority can only be experienced by those who live out their days underneath the power of God. It’s by aligning our lives with Him that He allows us to share in His work.

Throughout this book, Pastor Evans shows us about how satan’s priority is to derail the blessings and purpose of the believer. Satan and his demon can bring disruption to your life to such a level that you end up broken and beat down… unable to carry out the destiny God has in store for you.
Contrary to popular belief, satan cannot be defeated by thinking good thoughts and speaking positive affirmations. The only way to defeat satan and his disruptive power is through the authority we have through the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the Cross.
In this powerful book, Pastor Evans walks us through reclaiming what the enemy has stolen and fix what has broken in our lives and situations and learn to walk in Kingdom Authority.
This is a powerful book and definitely will go to my “read again” stack.

Kingdom authority is directly tied to accomplishing the will of God. Satan wants to block God’s Kingdom purposes for each of us. He takes delight in keeping us from experiencing all God has for us. Scripture is God’s voice in print.
The author stresses our responsibility to know God, to know His Word and not depend on our own opinions about what we think about God. On the down side, the author spelled William Randolph Hearst’s name as Hurst. Also, he wrote human kind instead of humankind. I would think that is the fault of the editor, not the author. Otherwise, it is an encouraging book

Such a good book from a seasoned Bible preacher and teacher. I listened to it on Audible and would love to listen again. I am doing the workbook study with a group. The book is rich is analogies of personal stories to make Bible truths relevant to situations of today. Read this book to learn more about living under God's perfect authority and living out the power of authority indeelling through the Holy Spirit.

This book was brought to my attention in a bookstore by a stranger I came across. And I am beyond grateful for the introduction. I’ve learned a lot through this book and the author. Which helped deepen my understanding of scripture and God. I highly recommend taking the time to read this!

I really enjoy Dr. Tony Evans writing style, he uses just enough scripture references and real life examples to make the context come alive. Definitely would recommend 10/10!
