Edge of Authority
By Rev.
Kenneth E. Hagin
"And they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we
perish? And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea,
Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm" (Mark
4:38-39).
A tornado arose one spring day in Texas. Most people had gone into their
storm cellars. We didn't have one. I was bedfast and almost totally
paralyzed anyway.
I became fearful. If the tornado were to strike, it would strike my
corner room first, because the wind was coming from that direction. The
house would cave in right where I was!
In desperation, and without thinking whether or not I could do it, I
said, "Dear Lord, I'm Your child. When those disciples were about to
sink, they awakened You and said, 'Carest thou not that we perish?' And
You did care. You awoke and rebuked the wind.
I know You don't want me to perish, but I can't get out of here. I'm
here on this bed, and this wall is about to blow in on top of me. So I
now rebuke this storm in Jesus' Name!"
As fast as you'd snap your fingers, the storm stopped. It grew calm. I
rejoiced. I didn't know then the great truths about the believer's
authority.
I had gotten to the edge of it and had exercised it without really
knowing what I had done. But God wants us to get the revelation of the
truth of His Word so we can understand what belongs to us and use it in
our lives.
Confession: I will get the revelation of the truth of God's Word and
understand and use what belongs to me.
