Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians that the kingdom of God does not consist of words, but in power (4:20). Jesus said He gave us authority to do what He did and more (John 14:12). Do you live with that kind of power? Do you see yourself doing the things Jesus did when He was on earth? Kraft argues that you should be able to answer yes to both questions. He discusses how and why in I Give You Authority.
As an encouragement, Kraft describes his own journey of realizing that power was indeed available to all Christians. He also offers insightful information on the nature of God's authority, and the things which challenge God's authority. Then he shows how Jesus acted with the full authority of God the Father, and did on earth the things He saw the Father doing, and said on earth the things He heard the Father saying. Kraft also looks at the form and function of the authority which has been given to all believers, as well as how it can be used responsibly. Based on his own experiences, Kraft offers several rules for authority in the spiritual realm, including authority in personal lives, family, ministry, and in church. And he sums all this information up into a practical guide to implementation.
After reading this book, you will understand the authority that Jesus has in the spiritual realm, and how you, as a coheir with Him, have access to that same authority. The claims are bold, and audacious, and seemingly unbelievable. But Kraft paints the picture of a God who loves us so much that He entrusts this world to our authority and power as we listen to Him. So step out in boldness, and take a stand against Satan, the great usurper of authority. Kraft reminds us that redeemed humans (or believers) have more authority in the spiritual realms than Satan (based on Psalm 8:5, where it says we were created a little lower than God and higher than the angels). Though it may not seem like that assertion is true, Christians must begin walking in confidence in their God-given authority. And this book is a great tool to aid that process. It will transform your life.
