In a world where there is a lack of respect for authority and in justice we need some hope that this world is redeemable and I believe this little devotional does just that.
Instead of letting Satan and his world have dominion over the comings and happening's of this world, we need to step up, and step in, and get things back on track and the only way to do it is for us to walk in the authority God has given us and God forgive me, but I have not been doing my part.
But today and in the day's to come is a new day to get things right and let us make a determination to take back what is rightfully ours.
God Bless.
Use Your Authority Well
by Joyce Meyer
Whoever wishes to be great among you must be your servant, and whoever desires to be first among you must be your slave—just as the Son of Man came not to be waited on but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many [the price paid to set them free].—Matthew 20:26–28
God desires to restore us to our rightful position of authority in Christ. But first, we must learn to respect authority before we are fit to be in authority.
We all have authorities to whom God expects us to submit. Our government, our law officers, and even our merchants have the right to set rules for us to follow. If we are not submitting to God’s appointed authority, it will soon be revealed.
Keep a submissive attitude in your heart, and enjoy the authority you have been given to spend time in God’s presence today.
