Authority of the Believer

These Scriptures identify the power God offers us to pray His will over each obstacle we face, recognizing that we are not praying against people but against the enemy who may operate through circumstances to sway us to not walk in faith and declare the victory Jesus Christ already won for us in His death and resurrection.
