Taking the position for God

A Word by Ueli Schaer Next Gen Pastor of Prophetic Training School

When you look at police officers, you see that they have badges to show their authority. Their uniforms display their position and unless you are a glutton for punishment, you obey the speed limit. You give respect and you also know that you are well protected. They are there to serve and, having authority, everyone must submit to the laws that they stand for.

God has given you authority in your realm. He has set you up for success, and He’s given you the authority in that realm, to make sure that your circumstances submit. All you need to do is to stand in position. He says to you:

“Mighty warrior, you are indeed here to fight and to defend My kingdom. I have given you authority in the land that I have set your feet on, and on that land, you will always find blessing. For I have chosen you and called you to be My warrior and I have given you this exact place where you are, to defend and to reign, in My name. Today I give to you a new armor because you have grown, and I have seen your faithfulness to Me. With this new armor, comes the authority to command your circumstances into line. When you stand in the position given to you, you will flourish, because you have authority in that realm.  In My armor you are safe, and you don’t need to be afraid of the troops of the enemy. As long as you stand in the position I have given to you, you will see success. As you stay under my covering, listening to my commands to carry them out, your feet will find solid ground and your footing will be sure.  So do not listen to the voice that leads you astray, that is subtle and wants to lure you away from the place that I have positioned you. For out of position, there is chaos, but within your realm of authority, you will find favor.  It is enough to stand in My authority. It is enough to be in position, for as you hold your position, I will give you the grace to fulfill your calling as My mighty warrior,” says the Lord.
