All born again Christians have God's given authority, through Christ, to bind up Satan, demons and all their wicked works. We must exercise this authority through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit based upon the sure foundation of God's word. His chosen children are cleansed and redeemed, from their sins, by the precious blood of the Lord, shed on their behalf, on the Cross of Calvary. they are anointed ambassadors of God's will and purposes, to bring hope and healing, to afflicted and poverty stricken mankind. This authority is spiritually greater and more powerful than all earthly authority, which is bound up by Satan and his demons. It is authority with power, backed by God's throne in Heaven.
