Words from the Lord during prayer and devotional journaling

I hear the Lord say:

The term ‘power’ is used in many ways. Power is associated with strength, might, control and authority. As Almighty God, I am full of power and majesty. But with My power, I do not choose to manipulate or control my children. I am willing to share My power and authority to those who follow Me. Humans have corrupted power through selfish ambition and pride. True power and authority is wielded for the benefit of those under the ruler. As your heavenly Father, you can rely on Me to use My authority to carry out plans and purposes for your good. You were created to share in My power through love, obedience, and humble submission. As Jesus, My Son, humbled Himself on the cross, and demonstrated his authority over both natural and supernatural, He fulfilled the divine plan to return My children to fellowship with Me. You are a co-heir with Christ. You can walk with authority.

The Spirit himself bears witness with our own spirits that we are children of God; and if we are children, then we are also heirs, heirs of God and joint-heirs with the Messiah… Romans 8:16-17 CJB
