TOPIC: THE REPERCUSSION OF DISREGARDING SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY

Overview SCRIPTURE:

God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land. – Psalm 68:6

 

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: To disregard authority is to live with incurable and regrettable repercussions.

 

The enemy of every God-given destiny, satan, exists with the mission to ruin the destinies of people. That was how he tried to abort the destiny of Jesus when Jesus was a baby but he failed.

 

One of the strategies satan uses to ruin people’s destinies today is to make them disregard spiritual authority. For example, when Lot came to the point where he had no regard for Abraham who was the spiritual authority over his life, his destiny began to degenerate. When Absalom came to the point where he decided to rise against his father, who was his physical and spiritual authority, he died in the woods like a mad dog. Samson had no regard for his parents; nobody could call him to order until he died a tragic death. 

 

Today, disregard for spiritual authority has ruined the destinies of many young men and women. To disregard authority is to live with incurable and regrettable repercussions in life.

 

Beloved, make up your mind to submit and obey the authority God has placed over your life.

 

Remember this: To disregard authority is to live with incurable and regrettable repercussions in life.
