Grace for your spirit November 6, 2008

Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God; and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves. Romans 13:1-2

The election is over, and we have elected new leaders. As Christians, whether we fought for a candidate or not, we now have one new road to take. Be in subjection to the governing authorities. God does not want us to be afraid, angry, or rebellious. He wants us to make a renewed effort to serve Him with all our heart. This passage was written when Rome was burning Christians at the stake. Do we think God doesn’t know how to make things work for good for His people now? Let us not resist the Lord, rather trust in Him, and fear not.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
