Imagine a four-year old, without a weapon, demanding everything we have. He wants our house, our cars, our money, our health, and he wants to take over our families. He wants everything. We would look at people who surrendered to a four-year old as if they were idiots, because a four-year old is no threat to us and has no authority over us.

In a way, this is what Adam did to mankind. He gave all of his/our possessions to someone beneath him. That someone was Satan. God made us (mankind) a little lower than Himself and He’s created angels to be our servants.

Psalm 8:4 says What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him? 5 Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty!   

Hebrews 1:14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?

Lucifer was a fallen angel and he was to serve us. After Adam submitted to Satan and sinned, Adam gave everything over to Satan. This submission came as a result of deception created by Satan. Satan told Eve to eat of the forbidden fruit so they would be like God not knowing they were already like God.

Praise God He implemented a plan, through Jesus, to bring us back to our rightful place and restore everything that was taken, however, some of us are still being deceived regarding who we are in Christ.

Through Christ, we have authority and dominion over everything that crosses our paths. It doesn’t matter if it’s sickness, poverty, fear, or lack we have authority over everything. Operate in your God-given authority and don’t allow the deceptions of the enemy to make you feel less than who you are.
