On Authority
Everyone must submit to governing authorities.
For all authority comes from God,
and those in positions of authority have been placed there by God.
Romans 13:1 NLT
Authority is not the problem.
Our stubborn hearts are the problem.
Jamie Munson
On Humility
The humble will see their God at work and be glad.
Let all who seek God’s help be encouraged.
Psalm 69:32 NLT
Humility is not denying your strengths,
humility is being honest about your weaknesses.
Rick Warren
On Obedience
Those who obey God’s commandments remain in fellowship with him, and he with them.
And we know he lives in us because the Spirit he gave us lives in us.
1 John 3:24 NLT
Obedience is your responsibility;
the outcome is God’s!
Steven Furtick
On Submission
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Come near to God and he will come near to you.
James 4:7-8a NIV
Perhaps the human lesson is always submission.
We have a choice: to rebel or to recognize our powerlessness while maintaining our faith.
Anne Truitt
On the Future
“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord.
“They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”
Jeremiah 29:11 NLT
If you think you’ve blown God’s plan for your life, rest in this.
You, my friend, are not that powerful.
