Adam Was Given Authority
Genesis 1:26 “Then God said, ‘Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominionʼ…”   Dominion:— (Radah) to rule, have dominion, dominate, tread down, to subjugate

God is revealing that He has chosen to partner with Adam.
Genesis 1:28
“Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion…”

Genesis 2:19 “…brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name.”
Why did Adam name the animals?  What was God trying to reveal?  GOD NEEDS YOU!!!

Jesus Was Given Authority
Matthew 9:6-8  “‘But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.ʼ …ʼGet up, take your mat and go home.ʼ …When the crowd saw this, they were filled with awe; and they praised God, who had given such authority to man.”

Jesus Crowned Us To Reign  Revelation 1:5-6  “To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.”     Kings Reign = Priests Connect

1 Samuel 17:46 “This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.”
