What sets one person apart from another in a particular field of operation? Why do the operations of one person carry more impact than another? The difference is the AUTHORITY from which a person acts - what qualifies a person to operate in a particular field. In the same vein, for us to operate as messengers of God, we need spiritual authority. This spiritual authority, being our righteousness is not abruptly conferred on a person. Our hearts (desires) must align with that of God’s for us to obtain this authority. The only way we come to this place is through suffering – suffering the loss of all that is gain to us in the flesh.

In the Series, “The Purpose of Suffering”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter demonstrates why we cannot enter any spiritual blessing without suffering. In this episode, “Spiritual Authority”, he explains what spiritual authority is and why the path to gaining spiritual authority is the path of suffering.

This message shows us the need for spiritual authority in our operations as God’s messengers.
