Rom 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God,
and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Rom 13:2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.
It’s apparent that all of us have someone who hold’s a measure of authority over us. This could be but not limited to our parents, employers, Spiritual leaders, the elderly, teachers, the government of the day or even our older siblings.
Submission to authority brings freedom. It sets order and direction in our every day’s lives for those found in Christ.. And what is to follow is unimaginable blessings for those who are obedient . ( houmatoday) . When we rebel against the existing authority, we receive more strict supervision which is intended to gain our full attention and compliance.
Submission to God and God instituted authorities ushers us to a realm of blessings from God and favour from man. When we rebel against such authorities, we face the consequences of our rebellion . It’s important to recognize the men and women who have been installed to oversee our lives and not only honor them but also submit to their authority. If we do so, we will experience love ,joy and peace.
