Many of us have been praying about stuff for years that I know

going to happen because we've never exercised with authority.

Dr. Tony Evans talks about how the Lord wants us to put his power to work.

So the question is not what can God do, the question is what step can I take?

This is the alternative with Dr. Tony Evans,

author, speaker, senior pastor of Oakcliffe Bible Fellowship in Dallas, Texas,

and president of the Urban Alternative.

Having access to God's power is one thing.

Putting it to work in our lives is another.

Let's join Dr. Evans as he explains how to do that.

I want to talk to you today about something that may be a little curveball for many of us,

but it is an essential benefit because I want to talk about experiencing spiritual authority

as the result of our knowing God.

Jesus is teaching his disciples and he would use a lot of natural scenarios as an opportunity

to teach a very deep lesson.

Peter in Mark 11, verse 20 says, to Jesus as they were passing by in the morning,

they saw the fig tree withered from the roots up.

Being reminded, Peter said to him,

grab our look, the fig tree which you coast has withered.

Now to understand what Peter is talking about, you should have to go back up to verse 13,

seeing in a distance a fig tree in leaf, Jesus went to see if perhaps he would find anything

on it.
