In seeking more power and authority in my own life, I was challenged by God's expectations of me. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 says we are to subdue our bodies like an Olympian athlete. Also, I was reminded of how He led His followers into circumstances that caused them to reach beyond themselves and step into unprecedented stances to take authority over situations. In Luke 8:22-25, He had a standard that he insisted they walk in for victory in our own life and in the lives of others.
