Opposition! It is inevitable in any worthwhile pursuit. Jesus even
promised challenge in the faith journey, "In the world you will
have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world" (John
16:33). There is a bit of a reflex in us when hearing these words
from Jesus—you have overcome but what about me. It does not
always feel like I am overcoming. Davis presents the case that one
key aspect of being an overcomer for the Christ follower is the
notion of spiritual authority. Living in a world that is rooted in
power, Christ followers are challenged daily by powers that seek to
interrupt or trample their success in the journey through
Christ—the world and the kingdom of darkness. Davis believes that
while followers receive empowerment from the Holy Spirit, this
power is only fully operational as they function out of their
God-given authority. As believers, everything they need is at their
disposal. However, they must actively appropriate their authority,
both in attitude and in action. Davis provides a biblical theology
of authority and real life examples of how he and others have
embraced their spiritual authority to advance the kingdom of God.
In essence, it is a manual for overcoming spiritual opposition in
everyday life.
