Christians get in trouble when they do not know how to exercise their authority in Christ. Remember, sin has been dealt with on the Cross, but Satan has not yet been thrown into the lake of fire. He is still active in the Earth today, resisting the work of God and those belonging to him. 

Satan will try to attack our bodies with sickness and our minds with oppression. His goal is to keep us from doing what God has called us to do. But Satan and his demons are under Jesus' feet, which means they are also under the believer's feet. The only way Satan can gain power over a Christian is through deception - making us believe in his power, making us afraid of him.

"At the turn of the 20th century, the Church was delivered a much-fought-for revelation on the authority of the believer from China Inland Missions director John A. MacMillan's private prayer journals. Built upon a great heritage, Dr. DuBois takes us on a deeper journey into divine authority for this century of believers." (Joseph R. Castillo, DD, All Nations International Fellowship)

"Dr. Kirk DuBois' In My Name is one of the first books that guides believers through the heights and depths of understanding Christ-centered authority. Balancing positional, reconstructive, and scriptural authority, DuBois gives believers a rightful place in the battle against 'principalities, powers, and the rulers of the darkness'. If Frank Peretti's series represents prose on spiritual warfare, In My Name gives believers the road map on how to overcome in spiritual warfare." (Steven Long, director of Regional Ministry Development and executive pastor, Grand Canyon University)
