Authority Poem
Poetry is an under-appreciated art form in modern times. God used it in the Hebrew of the Older Testament. Much of the original Hebrew rhymes. There are also many “plays on words.” All this is missed in translations.
This morning I read again the following anonymous poem from the front of The Authority of the Believer by John A. MacMillan. If every individual in the Body of Christ would make the last two lines their confession, we would make huge strides in our development into the image of the Master.
Authority
When mountain walls confront the way.
Why sit and weep? Arise and say
“Be thou removed!” and they shall be
By the power of God cast in the sea.
All power on earth, all power in heaven,
To Christ, the Son of God, is given.
And from the throne He will endue,
And hindrances will fall from you.
O’er all the power of fiend and man
Say through the Lord, “I surely can”;
Take from Him power on earth to tread
On serpent’s sting, on dragon’s head.
Whate’er thou art, O mountain high,
Where’er thou art, in earth or sky,
Whene’er thou art, truth is the same,
“Be thou removed, in Jesus name.
“Be thou removed!” Faith bids thee start
For yonder see—arise! Depart!
I may, I can, I must, I will,
The purpose of my God fulfill.

Praise God thanks Sister Billye!
Beautiful!
Oh how I love our Father’s and Savior’s wishes for His church to take our authority, authority over so many things we failed to be able to do in the past years, begone days of trials and some darkness of exactly what we were supposed to do, but as well is how to do it! Ever thankful am I for learning to rule and reign with our father’s instructions and our Father’s highest wish, that His children take their authority Christ bought back with His own life and blood.
Thank You Jesus!
Bless the lord, Beautiful poem. Praying for God’s wisdom stature and favor always for America and our President.

Yes yes yes
Here’s one I (and the Holy Spirit) wrote together that you might like:
“Jesus is Coming” POEM
Jesus warrior King and shelter for Your own.
Justice and Judgment dwell with You upon Your holy throne.
You’re excellent in power, mercy shines on Your face.
The whole earth trembles before You
And reverently fears Your name.
Fire devours before Your army,
behind them a burning flame.
We live in Days of Heaven on Earth
set strong in battle array.
We put on our armor daily,
and put on the Lord Jesus Christ.
As men of war we march in formation
everyone in their own lane.
We do not break rank as our Commander in Chief
gives us orders for the day.
The earth quakes before us–The enemy restrained.
We go forth as one in Your Name,
Advancing Your Kingdom, covering the Earth
Your Glory falls like rain.
Let justice run down like water,
and righteousness flow as a stream.
These are mere fringes of Your force
We are weapons in Your hand
By You we decree justice
By You righteousness stands.
We thresh and pulverize mountains
that stand in Your way
Your angels assist us when we speak Your Word
no obstacles and hindrances can stay.
These are the very best of times for those who abide.
A time for courage that consumes all fear
no time for prejudice or pride.
You purchased the world with Your own precious blood–
the treasure is Your Bride.
With a Mighty shout You’ll take Her out
So she will always be at Your side.
CHORUS
Jesus is Coming! The Bride’s getting ready!
All Power and Praise to the King!
Jesus is Coming! The Bride’s getting ready!
All Power and Praise to the King!
Reminds me of– “To strive to seek to find—& NOT to yield!!!!!” — from Tennyson? But in the Spirit????❤️
Can we get a copy of that poem I would love to have one
Blessings to your important ministry in the Body of Christ.
I really like that. Been awhile since I read that one. I’m going to copy it to my journal I think. I used to send poems out in cards to the old timers. They’ve all moved to heaven and I’m the old timer now. Haha
My mama liked to recite poems. My birthday is in June and she’d always say; “What is so rare as a day in June, if ever it be so fair… ” She was born in 1923 and she knew lots of poetry. I miss her.
Thank you Billye for sharing your keen insights of the hidden gems the scriptures of God avail to us exactly when we need it !
Yes. It is in the fly leaf of Authority of the Believer by John A. MacMillan. Available from Billye Brim Ministries.
Thanks for sharing
I keep his book with me along with my bibles. I daily
declare in agreement Mr. MacMillian’s awesome prayer which is on page 27.
Also, I declare in agreement his confession of authority on page 28.
It has been so long since I have re-read this powerful book, that I had forgotten that it also contained the
wonderful prayer of the authority that we have through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Time to again re-read the book!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Onwards and Upwards. Such Good Value that clearly defines the purpose and action of His Kingdom come, His will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. These are words of living action for today, for now.
Thank you.
Greeting sister Billye: Thankyou, for sharing another time worthy and timeless jewel from the past that resounds great truth and and insight for the listening audience of February 2021 and beyond. Garry
Amen and amen! The Lord has been speaking to me about standing in my authority. I just reread Kenneth Hagin’s book and I’ve been listening to John McMillan’s audio book and watching all of Kenneth Hagin’s teachings on the believer’s authority. ????
Beautiful

I may, I can, I must, I will…. for the first time make a comment on a blog (I use 0 social media, no FB even) and post a poem that Holy Spirit helped me to verbalize after I heard words “What is her faith?” in the dream on 3/12/20.
Thank you sister Billye for everything that you do. I got to know you from watching TBN…, I use Complete Jewish Study Bible ( it’s poetical and it’s signing to me, other translations speaks to me) in this particular blog word “Poetry” got my attention, it just spoke to my spirit …and the last two lines did their job. And I better hit the “submit comment” button at the end????
What is your faith?
My soul, put up the sail and leave the harbor
You have the anchor – the Word of God
Be strong, be bold, don’t be afraid
Be satisfied with what you’ve got.
For God Himself has said to you
He will never fail or abandon you,
Because you love Him- He will recuse you
You call on Him and He will answer you.
“The grass dries up, the flower fades;
But the Word of God will stand forever.”
So, what seems to be a problem? What troubles you?
Some worldly cares? Your pains?
Your worries between your ears?
Stir up the gifts! Stir up your hunger
And boldly come before His throne
To worship Him and give Him praise.
You are the child of the Most High.
Put on the garment of praise!
In Jesus name lift up your hands,
Surrender all and praise!
No matter what, remember this:
His grace is enough!
So, get off your case
And flip the switch.
THE “AUTHORITY” POEM IS SUCH A BLESSING!!! THE RUAH HA KODESH HAS GIVEN ME POEMS TOO..SEE ATTACHED..ONE OF MY FAVORITE VIEWS etc. IN ISRAEL HAR ARBEL
SUCH A MIRACLE THAT YOU ARE BUILDING THERE!!! EZAY NES!!
ATONEMENT
AT-ONE-MEANT
Meant to be At ONE with GOD
Only possible
Through the SHED BLOOD
Of HIS SON
Not through the “Works”
We have done – YESHUA
JESUS looks for faith In us –
That we look to HIM!
Then all things are Possible
HE said it –
Never “dread” it!
That which is a
“Block” in your life –
Speak to that Mountain –
And you will SEE
Your FAITH grow
From a Seed
To a TREE.

Thank you,Billye!. Ive been using the poem daily as a war cry against the strategies of the enemy! Today I decided to use it against this terrible arctic blast that is affecting so many! if we can speak to tornadoes, we should be able to speak to a mountain of arctic air!!
40 years have come and gone. After reading Brother Hagins book “In the Name of Jesus”, a huge 9-10′ foot demon walked through the metal prison wall. As the gift of “Discerning of spirits” was in operation. Curious in what direction he would go, I closed my eyes, sunk my head back into my pillow, awaiting a minute to spy on his where about.
I opened my eyes as he stood beside my second level double bunk, in fear I “my spirit man sunk into the center of my being” I cried out,” God help me”! In silence I hopefully waited,
I suddenly knew God the Father and Jesus sitting by his side observing my dilemma, my God our Heavenly Father’s voice spoke these three words “GREATER IS HE”
These words impacted my spirit man with power, my spirit man enlarged with MIGHTY COURAGEOUS STRENGTH!
Instantly the words, I read raced through my mind and the power in JESUS’ NAME ENPOWERED ME!
I became fearless, turn my face towards this huge demon and I spoke what I had been taught.
“IN THE NAME OF JESUS LEAVE’ HE DIDN’T MOVE THEN AGAIN I BLASTED HIM ,” IN JESUS NAME LEAVE, NOW”, he turned and began desending into the ground.
JESUS’ NAME IS POWERFUL, WHEN USED DEMONS LEAVE YOUR PRESENCE, GLORIFY GOD BY COMMANDING DEMONS TO LEAVE, IN JESUS’S NAME!
Amen!
When we read we think,
When we think we begin to know
When we know we begin to understand…
Then we become doers of the Word of God.
May we do what the Holy Spirit leads us to do and for certain it is prayer for our nation and leaders. Crc
Awesome! Thank you
