Fellow Warrior,
The week is coming to a close and I pray that it was productive. This is Isaiah, Cliff's son and I will be writing today's message "Respect for Authority." Throughout time, God has put people into positions of power and removed people out of those positions. Some were righteous enough to earn God's favor and others were wicked and obsessed in their own ways. When God ordains certain people into positions of power, then we, as citizens, should respect that. Everything that He does is for a Divine purpose and our finite brains can't comprehend the complexity of His plan for different civilizations. We should take comfort in the fact that God observes all walks of life and He puts special people into positions of power who would further progress His plan for the world. Authority should be in place to keep safety and order, however, some may abuse authority and cause the opposite. God is the only one who maintains authorities, not man. Praying that you have a fantastic weekend and that you will make time for Rest and Reflection!
“Every person is to be subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority expect from God, and those which exist are established by God.”
