He is asking you to simply uphold or sustain the victory won byJesus at Calvary and enforce his authority over the devil. You’re like the traffic warden who raises his hand and the vehicles stop. They don’t stop because he can physically bring thevehicles to a halt, but because he is representing and upholding the authority of the state.","author":"Pedro Okoro","tags":["spiritual-insights","spiritual-warfare","spiritual-wisdom"],"id":12335,"author_id":"Pedro+Okoro"},{"text":"Have you ever wondered why you did not rapture and go to heaven the day you became a Christian?
