DELIVERANCE RELEASING THE MIND POWER AND AUTHORITY The Scripture reveals Him in ‘power and authority,' "And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to usward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, which he wrought in Christ when he raised him from the dead and set him at His own right hand in the heavenly places," (Eph. 1:10).  , "And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus," (Eph. 2: 6).  POWER OF ATTORNEY  •It is crucial for the believer to trust the gospel and everything it teaches, (II Tim. 3:16-17).  •Repentance and renunciation of all the occult, New Age, cult experiences and all known sin, (Acts 26:18; II Cor. 6:17).  •Obedience to God and His Holy Word and seeking for power of the Holy Spirit… (Lk. 11:13; 24:49; Acts 1:4-14; 2:38-39; 5:32).  •Total submission to God, walk and live in the Spirit, (Rom. 8:1-2, 8:10, 13:16; Gal 5:16-26; Col. 3:17).  •Pray in faith, (Jam. 1:5-8; Heb. 11:6).  •Know your position in Christ, (Eph. 2-6).  •Learn to use the name of Jesus in accordance with the Word of God, (Acts 3:16; 4:12; Jn. 14: 12-15; 16:23-26; Col. 3:17; Jn. 15:7-16; 13:35).  Christians receive their authority from Jesus Christ and all authority is vested in Him. Every believer can take to heart. "He said to them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation . . . And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons," (Mk. 16:15-17).  Believers in Jesus Christ have every advantage to defeat demons. "I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you," (Lk. 10:19).
