There comes a time when you have to take things by force. You have to stand on your healing by force. You have to stand on God’s Word by force because things around you want to make it look like the Word does not work. You must command yourself to walk in the knowledge of God’s Word. I force my body to pray. I force my mind to study God’s Word. I see God’s Word for me as the final authority. When you recognize God’s Word as a commission and a command, and you stay in the Word and pray without ceasing, then you can be in control.
Your commands should be issued when you pray and speak God’s Word, not issued to order people around. Never forget this: When you command, give your commands to the devil and the circumstances you want changed. Don’t even wait till the devil messes things up for you; start issuing your commands now! Command in the power of the Spirit. Declare that by the stripes of Jesus you were healed. Declare that with you nothing shall be impossible because you’re a believer. Declare that you can do all things through Christ that strengthens you. Declare that greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world. Declare that the Name of the Lord is a strong tower and because you are the righteous, you run into it and you are safe.
Declare God’s Word. When you declare the Word, you’re issuing commands. You command instant respect and authority in heaven, on earth and in hell.
