HOW TO WALK IN SPIRITUAL DOMINION





People who make impact in their lives and in their societies are people that are in control spiritually. As Christians, we have the power to rule here on earth as God does in Heaven. One who is in charge spiritually would be in charge physically.
          God created man in His image and after His likeness and gave man dominion over the earth (genesis 1:26-28). Thus God gave man His breath for life. Man at creation already had supernatural intelligence, and as such God asked man to name the animals of the earth and those names where made permanent to this day (genesis 2: 19-20). Man lost his original dominion through deliberate sin but God had a contingency plan to restore dominion to man (genesis 3:15). God had a plan to come down as a man in Jesus Christ; who is the seed of the woman, to restore dominion to man. Jesus restored dominion by paying for the original sin of man from creation to the end of time (john 1: 29). Dominion was restored to man; that is to those who believe in Jesus Christ by His grace and love for man (john 1:12).
               KEYS TO WALK IN SPIRITUAL DOMINION
 1) You must be born again: Dominion was given back to the children of God by the price Jesus paid on the cross, and for one to be a son of God you must be born again by accepting Jesus Christ into your life.
2) Be Conscious: Consciousness of the fact that you carry God inside of you is the key to activate your dominion in the spirit. Salvation enriches you with the very life and nature of God (1john 4:4).
3) Possess the power of God: You must know the very power of God is available to you (Luke 10:19). Jesus Christ gave the Christians authority and power over all contrary powers to God and thus we must realize it and put it to work in our lives (psalm 104: 28-29) (2timothy 1:1-7). The Holy Spirit power resides in you as a child of God and so you should not fear.
4) The Holy Ghost resides in you: The same Holy Ghost in the life of every child of God is as powerful as that in the life of Jesus Christ (Luke 25:49) (acts 10:38) (1john2:20).
           As a born again child of God, You are Christ (Galatians 2:20). The death of Jesus Christ was on behalf of each and every Christian. Therefore we died and resurrected in Christ and our lives are in Him (revelations 1:18). One who must work in spiritual dominion must believe in Christ and His word (john 14:12).
