Podcasts about Authority

A new MP3 sermon from Alpha and Omega Ministries is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Skillet Non-Controversy, Conciliar Authority, CN Documentary Subtitle: The Dividing Line 2025 Speaker: Dr. James White Broadcaster: Alpha and Omega Ministries Event: Podcast Date: 11/18/2025 Length: 64 min.

Spent a little longer than I intended to address the "controversy" on line regarding Skillet's great rendition of O Come, O Come Emmanuel, and then moved on to comments made by Matthew Barrett on "conciliar authority" and being a Baptist. Right toward the end we mentioned the new trailer(s) for an upcoming Christian Nationalism documentary and how really dumb it is to say Christianity is "fake and gay."

In ancient Roman times, the voice was considered a weapon. A high-pitched or rushed voice signaled panic; a slow, deep, modulated voice signaled confidence and control. The goal wasn't volume, but resonance, achieved through deep abdominal breathing. Modern Science shares the discovery of Vagus Nerve Toning. Deep, slow breathing—especially extending the exhale—and vocalizing at a lower pitch stimulates the Vagus Nerve, directly lowering heart rate and increasing Heart Rate Variability (HRV). This physiological change instantly shifts you into a state of relaxed control. ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to The Roman Power Code: 7 Days to Inner Authority and Calm. If you've ever felt your energy drain away in a stressful situation, if your hands shake before a presentation, or if you struggle to maintain focus under pressure, this series is for you. We often try to solve problems of confidence and anxiety with our thoughts—we argue with our inner critic, we try to logically reason our way into feeling secure. But the ancient Romans understood a profound truth: Your body is the source of your authority. The Roman Empire was built on more than just discipline; it was built on an embodied presence that they called Gravitas—a personal weight, seriousness, and undeniable importance. This journey is a practical masterclass in self-command. By the end of this series, you won't just feel more confident—you will have a physical, repeatable, and accessible code to embody that confidence whenever you need it. This is day 3 of a 7-day meditation series, The Roman Power Code: 7 Days to Inner Authority and Calm," episodes 3416-3422. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: Intentional Micro-Posturing Quest: Check your posture, adjust your shoulders, back, relax your jaw, and hold the Gaze of Authority (steady, calm eye contact). This challenge forces you to consciously apply the Roman techniques in low-stakes situations, building the neural pathways for Embodied Power to become automatic.

You probably never think about what happens when you flush the toilet, but a team of dedicated staff at the Clark County Water Reclamation District (CCWRD) make it their business to ensure our wastewater is treated and returned to Lake Mead. Southern Nevada recycles 100 percent of the water that goes down the drain or toilet. For every gallon of water returned to the lake, Southern Nevada can withdraw another gallon, helping stretch our limited water supply. CCWRD's Bud Cranor talks about the CCWRD's important-albeit smelly-job of ensuring they squeeze and clean every drop of water they collect from the valley's sanitary sewer on the Water Smarts Podcast, “SUSTAINABLE WATER RECYCLING: Don't be a Pain in the Drain.”Hosts: Bronson Mack and Crystal Zuelkehttps://www.snwa.com/https://www.snwa.com/

In this episode, I talk with Julia Middleton, founder of Women Emerging, about how women everywhere are redefining what it means to lead. Julia shares how her global “expeditions” help women discover their own authentic way of leading and introduces her Four E's framework — Essence, Elements, Expression, and Energy. We explore why traditional models of leadership don't always fit women, how to lead in alignment with who you are, and the courage it takes to lead your way in systems not designed for you.

Sunday morning message from Pastor John.

Passage(s): Ephesians 5:17-21, 6:1-9 In the Kingdom of God, all authority is given that we might better serve God and others. In Christ, we are called to submit ourselves to one another, honoring every authority and using all authority to build others up.  

In this powerful message, Tony Evans teaches that believers are not meant to live powerless, overwhelmed lives. God has given His children spiritual authority—the right and the responsibility—to stand against obstacles, adversity, and impossibilities through His power. Evans explains that this authority is rooted in our identity in Christ. Because Jesus has conquered sin, death, and the enemy, we share in His victory. When we align our lives under God's rule and speak His Word in faith, mountains begin to move, circumstances shift, and breakthroughs occur. He emphasizes that authority is activated by obedience, prayer, and believing that God truly meant what He said. When believers operate under divine authority, the impossible becomes possible—not by human strength, but by the power of the One who rules heaven and earth. A motivating reminder that you are not helpless—you have Kingdom authority to confront, overcome, and move what stands in your way. Jag, Tedi, and I are so glad you tuned in today!

A new MP3 sermon from Reformation Presbyterian Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: A Christian Concept of Authority Speaker: Mr. Tyler Ray Broadcaster: Reformation Presbyterian Church Event: Prayer Meeting Date: 11/12/2025 Bible: Ephesians 5:21 Length: 34 min.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningMatthew 28 : 18 — All Authority in Heaven and on Earth : Peace and Freedom Through Christ “Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.'” — Matthew 28 : 18Recorded live here in London, England with Reverend Ben Cooper.At 10 P.M., as the day fades, Matthew 28 : 18 reminds us who holds the final word. Jesus Christ rules over fear, darkness and every troubled heart. Across the United States, Nigeria, Singapore and France, believers declare His peace. No storm or spirit can stand against the authority of the risen King. His word commands rest, His presence drives out anxiety. Tonight we yield every worry to the One who reigns over all.Paragraph 1 – Context When Jesus spoke of authority, He was giving His followers the confidence to live without fear. The same power that raised Him now stands with us. Every anxious thought bows to the Lord who commands the winds and waves.Paragraph 2 – Reflection Fear is loud, but faith listens to the voice of Jesus. His authority brings peace where panic once lived. When we submit our worries to Him, we discover rest that the world cannot give. He still rules — not from a distance, but from within our hearts by the Spirit.Paragraph 3 – Intercession & Vision We pray for the United States, Nigeria, Singapore and France. Let fear be broken and peace take its place. May families, leaders and churches stand under Christ's authority. Let a wave of calm sweep these nations through the power of His name.Prayer PointsPrayer for peace and freedom from anxiety in Jesus' name.Ask God to replace fear with faith through the Spirit.Prayer for calm hearts and restored minds.Declare that Christ has all authority over every fear.Pray for families facing worry and stress.Ask the Holy Spirit to bring comfort and clarity.Prayer for leaders to govern with peace and wisdom.Pray for healing from anxiety and depression.Ask God to release courage in the Church worldwide.Thank Jesus that His authority brings perfect peace.Life ApplicationWhen worry rises, speak Matthew 28 : 18 — “All authority belongs to Jesus.” Let His rule still your heart tSupport the showFor more inspiring content, visit RBChristianRadio.net — your home for daily devotionals, global prayer, and biblical encouragement for every season of life.

In our culture today, the collection of writings commonly referred to as The Bible has often been called God's Word. Some call it our final authority. Yet we see within the pages where it is Jesus who is specifically defined as the Word who was with God from the beginning—and was God—and He became flesh. In Him was life and light. Jesus never promised an addendum to the writings of the old, holy, Jewish scriptures ... but did indeed promise to send His Spirit as a helper and guide. This is not to minimize the Bible or anything in it, whether it be Old or New Testament. The pages are a reliable source of truth that point us to the Life-giver. But there is much confusion amongst thousands of corporate Christian church denominations with a multitude of different opinions that do not align ... and yet they pretty much all consider the Bible as the source for their beliefs. God is not the author of that confusion. Considering the phrase, "the word" ... it can be defined in multiple ways when looking through the pages of the Bible. For example, there was a word of law for the Jews and there was something better that came along that Paul preached, which he called the word of faith. One was given for the Jews "to do" under what is now an obsolete covenant, while the other was given for anyone to believe in a new and better covenant. But we are not on a divine path to become perfect interpreters of the Bible. This is not our destination. It's all about keeping our eyes on the person of Jesus with the help of His Spirit while getting to *know* Him. *He* is our final authority and the Author of faith, life, and salvation. --Available on Amazon - "Clash of The Covenants: Escaping Religious Bondage Through the Grace Guarantee" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0713ZSKY7

Sunday AM sermon

by Reagan McClenny

John Baumgartner The authorities of Jerusalem--the chief priests, scribes, and elders--are afraid of the following that Jesus is gathering. They try to put a stop to it by questioning His authority. He turns the question back on them and shows that their authority is no real one at all. Jesus has true authority, authority to lay down His life and take it up again, and it makes Him fearless and free from manipulation. Trusting in His authority, we can follow Him in that fearless freedom laying down our lives as well.

Crown Ignorant Kings — Reclaiming Truth, Authority, and the KingdomWhat if ignorance isn't an insult—but a wake-up call?In this unapologetically bold podcast, we challenge the misunderstood meaning of “ignorance” and uncover how misinformation, withheld truth, and spiritual misdirection have robbed humanity of its divine inheritance. Here, truth isn't just facts—it's original, eternal knowledge that transcends the senses.We delve into the profound message that every human being was created as a king, not by gender, but by divine authority. Through powerful revelations, we explore why God came in human form: to restore what was lost, to reconnect us to the Kingdom, and to reclaim the crowns forfeited through disobedience. This isn't your typical Gospel conversation. We go beyond “What Would Jesus Do” and ask the real question: What Did Jesus Say? Because the true Good News isn't just about the cross—it's about the crown beyond it. Join us as we confront spiritual misconceptions, awaken dormant authority, and do the work to Crown Ignorant Kings—one truth at a time. Now, Let's Adjust Our Crowns!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/crowning-ignorant-kings--2714790/support.Crowning Ignorant Kings: The Online Kingdom AcademyFollow this FREE plan to gather the resources that you need to learn more about experiencing the Kingdom of God on earth.Crowning Ignorant Kings: BLOGCrowning Ignorant Kings: The Kingdom AcademyCrowning Ignorant Kings: Online Community

In this episode, I talk about how your real communication isn't what you say—it's everything that happens before, around, and even without words. People make up their mind about you long before you speak. Your body, your silence, and your energy speak louder than anything you can say. I break down how that unspoken communication shapes how people see you and how to use it with intention. Show Notes [02:39]#1 You'll never get a second chance to make your first impression. [11:36]#2 Authority is felt, not said.  [21:21]#3 Words can lie, energy does not.  [24:29]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3467: Why Being "Alpha Male" Is Not The Point Next Steps: ⚡️ Power Presence Protocol  Command The Room Without Words → http://PowerPresenceProtocol.com 

Most people think leadership is about having answers. In reality? AI already has those. The leaders who win next are the ones who know how to ask better questions.In this episode, Luciana and I trace the evolution from old-school hierarchy (titles, power, layers, politics) into something flatter, peer-driven, and choice-based — where people follow you because they want to, not because they “report” to you.We dig into how AI accelerates this shift, why the next generations won't tolerate traditional management structures anyway, and why solopreneurs will scale bigger than ever without hiring armies of employees. And most importantly, how coaching — real coaching — becomes the meta-skill that makes people better thinkers, better collaborators, and better humans.Luciana also shares her trilogy model for helping anyone move from where they are to where they want to be, why listening is a superpower, and how the best leaders guide people to their own answers instead of supplying canned solutions. Think less “Cobra Kai drill sergeant,” more “Mr. Miyagi builds muscle memory while you think you're just sanding the deck.”This isn't soft leadership. It's the new competitive edge.TL;DR* AI kills “leader as the answer-giver.” The winners will be the leaders who ask the right questions.* Hierarchy is collapsing. Future teams form around choice, not authority.* Solopreneurs scale bigger. AI makes “teams of one” way more powerful.* Coaching = the foundational skill. Listening + powerful questions = 10x commitment.* The trilogy model: What do you want → How will you get it → Who does what by when.* People own what they discover. If they found the solution, they'll fight for it.* Next-gen leaders will not tolerate 1950s management. Flat, peer-based, and values-driven is the future.Memorable Lines“AI gives you the answers. Leaders win by knowing which questions matter.”“Authority doesn't make people follow you. Being worth following does.”“Coaching isn't teaching — it's helping someone see what's already within them.”“When someone finds their own answer, their commitment goes up 10x.”“The new organizational chart is horizontal — not vertical.”GuestLuciana Nunez — Executive Coach, former CEO & GM, 20+ years in corporate leadership, now helping leaders upgrade from command-and-control to collaborative, coaching-based leadership.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/luciana-nunez-coachny/Wesbite: https://www.theprestonassociates.com/Why This MattersIf you want to stay relevant as AI reshapes work, you need to master the one thing machines can't replicate:human guidance, human insight, and human development.Leadership is no longer about being the smartest person in the room — it's about being the person who unlocks everyone else's smartest thinking.This episode shows you how.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

n the closing session of the Spiritual Warfare and Deliverance Conference (October 24–25, 2025), Pastor Khristian Miller delivers a bold and practical teaching on Power and Authority — equipping believers to walk in the same authority Christ has given His church. This message dives into what it truly means to operate in the power of the Holy Spirit — not through persuasive words or intellect, but through demonstration. Pastor Khristian teaches that deliverance and transformation come when believers move from head knowledge to Spirit-empowered action, learning to exercise the authority that Jesus has already delegated to His people. Key insights include: • The difference between power (dunamis) and authority (exousia) • Understanding that all authority in heaven and earth has been given to Jesus — and now to His followers • How to exercise authority when confronting spiritual forces • Why believers must discern between the true and false manifestations of the Holy Spirit • Practical principles for deliverance and walking in spiritual confidence • How to minister freedom with faith, humility, and discernment Pastor Khristian reminds the church that casting out devils is part of the gospel — a demonstration of God's kingdom breaking into the lives of the broken and bound. Through stories, Scripture, and on-the-job equipping, this session empowers every believer to walk boldly, speak with authority, and partner with the Holy Spirit to bring freedom and transformation.

New York Attorney General Letitia James says Albany's top federal prosecutor does not have the authority to investigate her, arguing that interim U.S. Attorney John Sarcone was never properly installed and that subpoenas he issued should be thrown out. Meanwhile, Citi Field will host a first of its kind Dominican and Puerto Rican winter league all star baseball game. Also, New York is partnering with appliance maker Copper to develop 10,000 new 120 volt induction stoves for public housing.

In The Believer's Authority, Part 2, Kenneth Hagin continues to reveal the spiritual power every believer possesses through Christ. He emphasizes that authority over Satan and demonic forces isn't something to be earned or requested — it's already granted through Jesus' victory at the cross and His resurrection. Hagin explains that too many Christians live in defeat because they fail to exercise this God-given authority, instead waiting for God to act when He has already delegated that responsibility to His Church. Drawing from Ephesians 1:19–23 and 2:6, he illustrates that believers are seated with Christ in heavenly places, sharing in His authority. Hagin urges Christians to renew their minds to this truth, speak the Word with confidence, and resist the enemy from a position of dominion rather than fear. He recounts personal experiences where taking spiritual authority — through the name of Jesus — brought breakthrough and deliverance. The core message: Satan has already been defeated, and believers must act on that truth by enforcing Christ's victory in their daily lives. Hagin challenges listeners to move from passive prayer to commanding faith, walking boldly in the authority that belongs to every child of God. Jaggy, Tedi, Rocky, and I thank you so much for tuning in and SHARING!

The chief priests and elders challenge Jesus's authority in the temple. Jesus counters with a question about John's baptism that they cannot answer. He then tells two parables of judgment against them: the Parable of the Two Sons and the Parable of the Wicked Tenants. Jesus concludes this discourse with a stark warning to the Jewish leaders who saw themselves as powerful and invincible: the kingdom will be taken from them and given to a people producing the fruits of faith. The Rev. LeRoy LaPlant, pastor of the Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd and headmaster of Concordia Classical Academy in North Mankato, MN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Matthew 21:23-46. To learn more about Good Shepherd, visit goodshepherdmankato.org. The Gospel of Matthew bridges Old and New Testaments, presenting Jesus as the promised Messiah who fulfills the Law we could never keep and establishes His kingdom of grace for all nations. Written by a tax collector transformed by pure grace, Matthew reveals Christ as the true Son of David and Emmanuel (God with us) who challenges us with the crushing demands of the Law in His Sermon on the Mount to the sweet comfort of the Gospel in His death and resurrection. From royal genealogy to glorious resurrection, this verse-by-verse study proclaims the One who conquered sin, death, and the devil for us, now delivering forgiveness, life, and salvation through Word and Sacrament as He remains with His church always, even to the end of the age.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

Farzad Rashidi underscores a major shift in the world of digital marketing, emphasizing that search engines and AI-powered tools now prioritize external validation over traditional keyword optimization. He highlights the growing importance of branded mentions and third-party references—such as listicles and independent product reviews—in boosting a company's visibility and credibility in search results generated by large language models like ChatGPT and Google's AI overviews. According to Farzad, the frequency and authenticity of these mentions across reputable sites play a decisive role in how brands are perceived by both search algorithms and potential customers. He advocates for a comprehensive strategy that combines the creation of high-quality content with a robust outreach operation focused on building relationships and earning authoritative citations. Farzad's approach recognizes that effective online reputation management now involves being present and positively referenced across a network of trusted platforms, not just a brand's own website. This methodology not only drives organic traffic and strengthens SEO but also helps future-proof businesses against the evolving criteria set by AI-driven search technologies. If you're looking to elevate your digital presence and stay ahead in the changing search landscape, Farzad invites you to explore the solutions and resources they offer at Respona. By leveraging Respona's AI-powered, human-assisted outreach platform, efficiently secure the authoritative mentions that matter most—amplify your reputation and drive growth in an increasingly competitive marketplace.
