John 15:16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
As soul winners, our authority is in the name of Jesus; we are His representatives here on earth, and we can do nothing without Him in this world.
If you are sending a representative to a function or business meeting, they will go in your name; the doors will be open in your name; they will sit in the seat prepared for you. That is exactly what the name of Jesus means to us, the soul winners.
Mark 16:17 (And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues);
When you are saying in the name of Jesus, come out; you are actually telling the devil that you are representing Jesus, which means he will bow to you the same as he will bow to Jesus. Luke 10:17 (And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name).
To activate our authority in the name of Jesus, one needs to be a fruit-bearing believer; if not, His name will not work for you. Let us not deceive ourselves, the authority in the name of Jesus works expressed in the hands of those who obey the commandment of soul-winning. His commandments are for profit and not a burden. Those who are on the go for Christ are the carriers of signs and wonders, which are delivered to us through his name.
Secondly, we can also activate our authority in the name of Jesus through fasting and prayer, for this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. Matthew 17:19 (Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? 21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting).
Some strongmen will not go unless you increase your authority through prayer and fasting. Soul-winning business is not for the faint-hearted, and we, the believers, are the children of the lion of the tribe of Judah who turns not away for any in battle. We need a lion's heart to enter the enemy´s territory and conquer. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God for pulling down a stronghold (2 Corinthians 10:4). You are a territorial dominator, but to dominate, you need to pull down the stronghold of your target territory through prayer and fasting to bind the controlling demon of that particular territory.
Mark 3:27 No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.
Every unsaved soul is under the control of a strong man, and to deliver them and bring them to Christ, you need to defeat the strong man first. You cannot defeat a strong man without authority. The seventy said that the devil surrendered at the mention of the name of Jesus. Peter and John said to the cripple man, in the name of Jesus, rise and walk, and he did.
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
Friends, to operate in the supernatural, you need to believe in Jesus Christ; that is the first step. You cannot use his name unless you have a marital relationship with him. Hurry up and become a bride of Christ today, say yes to him by praying this salvation prayer below, and be blessed, in Jesus name.
Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins and accept You as my Lord and Saviour. I believe you died for me to make me a new man/woman. Forgive me all my sins, wash me with your blood, and give me a new heart. Thank you, Lord, for saving my soul. Now I believe I am born again. And I am a child of God. Amen!
