Luke 7 prolcaims in a powerful way the authority of Jesus. Jesus has authority over healing. Jesus has authority over death. Jesus has authority that is unlike any other. And yet, the people around him don't understand. They get the authority of Jesus confused with the authority of the world.
But so do we.
Every time we say that we have earned something or we deserve something - we are confused. Every time we attach Jesus's name to our desires as a pronouncement - we are confused. Every time we use Jesus as a stamp of approval instead of seeking first his ways - we are confused.
When Jesus has true authority over our lives, it changes us. It changes everything. How do you experience the authority of Christ in your life?
