THE POWER OF AGREEMENT

THE POWER OF AGREEMENT

I. Authorization

Genesis 1:26

Then God (Elohim) said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness

Genesis 1:28

  Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the

earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the

air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.

Subdue – Subjugate, Violate

Psalm 115:14-16

14 May the LORD give you increase more and more, You and your children. 15 May you

be blessed by the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. 16 The heaven, even the

heavens, are the LORD’s; But the earth He has given to the children of men.

Psalm 8:4-6

4 What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? 5

For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him

with glory and honor. 6 You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your

hands; You have put all things under his feet.

II. METHODS

1. Agreement – Orientation of your heart

2. Words – Released Energy/ Legal Transaction

3. Prayer – Petitions / Request

III. UNPACKING AGREEMENTS

1. Your Personal sovereignty Demands Agreement

a. Agreement is the door to the spiritual realm

Romans 10:9-11

9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart

that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10  For with the

heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is

made unto salvation. 11  For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will

not be put to shame

Romans 6:16

16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his

servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience

unto righteousness?

2. Agreement in Scripture

James 1:12-15

12 Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been

approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to

those who love Him. 13  Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted

by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt

anyone. 14  But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own

desires and enticed. 15  Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to

sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

 When desire has conceived

Mark 11:22-24

22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, have faith in God. 23  For verily I say unto

you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed, and be thou

cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those

things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

24  Therefore I say unto you, what things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe

that ye receive them, and ye shall have them

1 Timothy 4:1-2

1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from

the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,

2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot

iron.”

3. Our Warfare is About Agreements

2 Corinthians 10:3-5

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4  For the

weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling

down of strong holds; 5  Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that

exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every

thought to the obedience of Christ

Casting Down Imaginations – “logismos” (Strong’s Concordance

#3053). It is a “reckoning, computation, a reasoning such as hostile to the

Christian faith; a judgment or decision such as conscience passes.”

Bringing Into Captivity – Most of us have never been physically captive

to someone or incarcerated in a prison, so “captivity” can be a challenging

concept for us. The word here speaks of captivation. When you are

captivated by something or someone, it is hard to break away from what

has your attention. But also the word implies “to lead away captive.”

IV. DEALING WITH UNRIGHTEOUS AGREEMENTS

1. Ask God to show us all unrighteous agreements in our mind

2. Recognize and admit that you have agreed with the wrong source

3. Rehearse what the truth says about it

Philippians 4:8

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble,

whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are

lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there

is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

4. Mentally and Verbally Break the Agreement

5. As the Lord to remove the agreements and take them from you
