This is a Solider who understood the meaning of order and authority. Order is defined as an authoritative command or instruction. You do not joke with orders in the army. When an order is given you obey first before you complain. It is just the same way in the realm of the spirit. Our words are entities in the spirit realm. God created this entire universe with His words. And we being His splitting image and co creators with Him have the same authority to command and speak those things that be not as though they were. This Roman Captain understood this fact being a soldier in the army. We are in a battle field and we being soldiers of christ must understand this fact clearly.
One thing you do not joke with in the army is hierarchy. The senior officer have so much authority over his subordinate. His orders cannot be disobeyed. In the battlefield of life, we also have hierarchy.
"When I look at the sky, which you have made, at the the moon and the stars, which you set in their places - what are human beings, that you think of them; mere mortals, that you care for them? Yet you made them inferior only to Yourself; You crowned them with glory and honour. You appointed them rulers over everything You made; You placed them over all creation: sheep and cattle, and the wild animals too; the birds and the fish and the creatures in the seas" Psalms 8:3-8 GNB
"Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you." Luke 10:19 NKJV.
If you know your position of authority in this battlefield my brother, you will thrive. But many believers are destroyed for lack of the knowledge of who they are in Christ and the power accrued to them by the virtue of the fact that they are children of God. This Roman Captain understood this fact in the army and believes the same is the case in the spiritual realm which exactly is. He did not want to bother Christ He understood Order and demanded Christ use it.
So because of our hierarchy in the Spirit realm, witches and wizards and powers of darkness have no choice but to obey our orders! They know where they belong but create fear to displace us from our rightful position thereby giving them the upper chance. Many children of God are so timid and fearful. That is why the devils do not obey their orders. But orders are not given timidly, they are given boldly and authoritatively.We have to be as bold as a lion.
"The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion." Proverbs 28:1 NKJV
