Christ has given you power saying, “Whatsoever you bind on earth is bound in heaven.” This is the spiritual authority to say no. It is the power to bind, as with chains, demon powers and their teachings. It’s not power that the Christian seeks but rather power given by God to take dominion for Christ’s glory. Man was created in the image of God and commanded to take dominion over the earth (Genesis 1:26-27).

Not only is man called to take dominion, it is in his nature to do so. The word dominion was first used by God, not man. God created man in his image and with his nature. The redeemed man is a vicegerent of Christ, one appointed by his ruler to subdue and govern on His behalf. On His behalf or in His stead with legal authority from his maker is important to remember.

Since Adam’s treason it is in the fallen nature of man to subdue and take dominion over the earth to fulfill selfish lusts and desires. The redeemed man, in contrast to the reprobate man, knows the difference and takes his charge of dominion as one with “delegated authority” who exercises dominion “under God.” In other words dominion must always be on God’s terms.
