Do you believe you can change the world? Most people, if they are honest, would say, “No.” But the more we read the Scriptures, the more we realize that changing the world is exactly what God wants us to do. It is not by our own ability, however. Christ’s authority has already judged satan and cast him out of heaven. And with the force of our spirits, we envision God’s will happening on earth just as it has happened in heaven.
Show Notes:
According to Matthew 16, whatever we bind on earth has already been bound in heaven, and whatever we loose on earth has already been loosed in heaven. We see the perfect illustration of this in Revelation 12. By the authority of the risen Christ who is at the right hand of the Father, we see satan bound and thrown out of heaven. Now we can see ourselves doing the same thing here on earth. We can visualize ourselves binding satan by the authority of Christ and kicking him out of the earth.
We see many problems in the world that we know are caused by satanic forces. But do we really see ourselves as the ones who bind those forces by the authority of Christ and change things by our agreement, just as Yeshua (Jesus) commanded? Are you concerned about a problem in the world or in your life? Then use your imagination to visualize the promises in God’s Word overpowering that problem and replacing it with His perfect will. A specific problem right now is the way the media, under the control of satan, is filling the world with lies. So visualize the truth of God like a tsunami sweeping away those lies of satan. Then agree together to see that fully manifested in the earth.
In a recent Fellow Workers Zoom call, which was recorded for this podcast, we did just that. We focused on specific issues, exercising our imagination with the force of our spirits to see the removal of the satanic forces behind each problem. As you listen to this podcast, participate by exercising your own spiritual imagination when different issues are addressed. There will be a one-minute pause after each issue is discussed. Use that time to visualize the will of God being done in the situation. Practice this on your own as well. Keep your spirit engaged with what God wants to do in the earth.

- We bind on earth whatever has already been bound in heaven. In other words, we are not inventing things. We specifically bind that which the Lord has bound in heaven.
