Short Answer
Jesus has given us authority in His name to stand against the power of the enemy, to cast out demons, and to lay hands on the sick. This authority does not come from our strength, but from Jesus, who is above every principality, authority, power, and dominion.
The Word
“Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.”
Luke 10:19
“These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new languages; they will take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it will in no way hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.””
Mark 16:17-18
“which he worked in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come.”
Ephesians 1:20-21
