Problem with Authority?
Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who are having issues with authority figures, or those who struggle with authority in general. In Jesus’ name, amen.
It can be a challenge dealing with anyone who wields power abusively.
In contrast, consider the first verse in the Great Commission in Matthew 28:18-20 (NIV). Verse 18 says, “Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.’”
Jesus is in charge.
Yet, on a personal level, God gives us free will to accept or reject his being in charge of our lives.
That means all aspects of life.
Is there some area of life you need to yield to God’s authority?
Take care of it, as soon as possible.
