True authority is evidenced by confirmation from God. This is through God working through a person in a special way. We do not say a miraculous work occurs through our own ability, but in all these things give glory and honour to God. Even in this, we must remain humble before God unless the anointing goes to our head and we become proud. It is important to seek this authority from God because the body of Christ needs good, strong leadership in order to grow and mature. The church also needs to test those with God's anointing so they can accept leadership and direction from God.
