Authority.

                                                                           Authority.

 

By Whose Authority?

 

Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established.  The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgement on themselves.  (Romans 13:1-2)

 

The Authority of The Word or the Authority of the World?

Our Daily Nugget is God letting us know that “He Has Designed All Authority” and has commanded us to submit to “Authority” or face the judgement from rebelling.  In our fallen state, we want to be in authority of our life’s decisions.  God is a God of Order.  Everybody cannot be in authority; “Order” cannot exist with everybody doing what seems right in their own eyes.  

 

Remember, Kingdom Citizens “have died to self”!

 

Authority – The One in “Control”!  The Word or the World?

                   Our “Actions” lets everyone know, “By Whose Authority We Operate”.

                   We “Obey” the One who has Authority in our “Heart/Mind”.

 

God does not require us to obey authorities, when the authorities are against His Word; even in the Church, for there are many False Teachers.  We “do not rebel” against the false teachers, but “we do not obey them either”.  Just because something is legal, does not make it right, it can be legal, but still be sin and wrongdoing.

 

It is not okay to sin, even if your Religious Leaders, or government, says it is.

Our governmental authorities say it is okay to murder, abort a baby, 

“God say thou shall not Kill”.

 

If we do not know what God’s Word says, and we obey authority that is not from God; “We Will Still Be Held Liable For Not Obeying God’s Word, the Bible”.  We need to know what Right is, to know what Wrong is.  God does not require us to obey authority against the Bible.  To refuse to obey the government authorities  can bring punishment from the one in authority.  Prepare your heart/mind today, for whatever punishment the authorities might dish out; “Trust God and You’ll Be Fine”.

Just because something is legal does not make it Right, and just because something is illegal does not make it wrong!  “God’s Word is the Ultimate Authority”! 

 

Me Following “Me”, leads to Death, Me Following the “Word,” Leads to Life!

The Bible is the “Only Legitimate Authority”, Learn and Obey It!

Don't Let Go!

                                                                     Don’t Let Go!                                            The Wisdom In Persistence!   And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him “until the breaking of the day”.  Then he said, “Let me go, for the day has broken”.  But Jacob said, “I will not let you go unless you bless me”. (Genesis 32:24 & 26)   How Bad Do You Want It? Don’t Let Go Until You Get Your Blessing!   Our Daily Nugget  is Jacob being in a Wrestling Match with an Angel, all night long.  The Angel hit Jacob on his hip and made him limp.  But Jacob would not let him go, even after he asked Jacob...

Clutter!

                                                                              Clutter!   The Demon of “Clutter”?   A time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away.  (Ecc. 3:6) The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature.   (Luke 8:14) There is a sore evil which I have seen under the sun, namely, riches “kept” for the owners thereof to their hurt.  (Ecc. 5:13)   It Is Better to “Give than to Receive”; “Giving Prevents Clutter & Hoarding”.   Clutter and hoarding prevent Order. In the absence of Order, there will be  “Disorder”. Clutter and hoarding will lead to Disorder, they can be physical...

Rely On Faith.

                                                                                       Rely On Faith. And We Will Be Blessed like Abraham.   Understand, then, that those who have “Faith” are children of Abraham.  Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by “Faith” and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham:  “All nations will be blessed through you”.  So those who “Rely On Faith” are blessed along with Abraham, the man of Faith. (Galatians 3:7-9)   Our Measure of Faith is Sufficient. We “Exercise our Faith” when we “Rely on Faith”!   God choose to Bless all people through Abraham, our Father of Faith. Know and understand Faith.  Faith or Works of the Law? ...
