Preamble |

Good day everyone, I am very much excited to write a content on a topic: the Virtue Of Obedience organised by @simonnwigwe, much thanks to the community too.
About obedience
Obedience simply can be defined as complying with an order, law, command or rules to another's authority. Being obedient to God is when we work by his laws and regulations he set aside in the commandment. Obedience which comes with a blessing from the authority, it can be from human or God.
Who should we obey and why |
---|
Obedience is not really meant for the lower class ones obeying people in higher authority. People in higher authority can also obey the minor rights. There are several people we should obey which are:
💞The creator (God)
💞The Government being the Authority
💞Our parent and wards
💞Elderly one.
The creator(God) |
---|
In all we do, we should try pledge allegiance to our creator being God, setting ourselves to abide by the ten commandments he placed in the Bible. There's always great blessing attached to his law being eternal life in glory and other great benefits like grace, peace, joy and happiness.
The Government being the authority |
---|
Stories in the Bible made it clear that Moses was like a channel to God, passing on vital information to the humans. That alone states that he's the one incharge for that time controlling certain number of people with set of laws, it was then expected to pay allegiance to him through obeying him. In our recent days Government are the second in command after God and they deserve to be obeyed throughout thier era.
Our parents and wards |
---|
Parents are generally a channel through which offsprings are made and groom. Much is expected from the child through obeying his or her parent as much care,love and support is given. We obey them by assisting them at homes when assistance is needed and abiding by the rules and regulations governing the home
Elderly ones |
---|
We should try to be submissive to our elders, seniors and to people in position that are higher than us. Obeying and respecting them at all angles no matter how it seems hard sometimes.
Is it proper to be obedient all the time |
---|
Being obedient is not necessary at all state, but we are not expected to insult as a result of not obeying. Some authorities and parents pass down laws which are harmful and disastrous to others and in no way such laws are to be obeyed
When can someone disobey |
---|
Disobeying is not wrong sometimes because it brings peace and happiness to ones soul. Evil practices like harming another should not be obeyed because firstly it's going against the creator's commandment.. Stating, love your neighbor as you love yourself and thou shall not kill.
Have I disobeyed before? |
---|
Yeah several times, have been against certain laws and rules at home which always calls up for punishment by my parents. To say the rod is really changing me to be the best and submissive
How will I feel if am being disobeyed? |
---|
No one will feel happy after being disobeyed, that alone shows you're not worthy of respect. Directly to me I will feel so bad to see my younger siblings disobey me, showing up bad behaviours and character.
There's always benefits attached to be submissive and obedient 💞

You've actually shown the virtue of obedience in your expressions and words. Many children, even adults in this century disregard obedience, thinking it's not really necessary or worth it sometimes but it's because of not being obedient sin, death, suffering and pain affect mankind today through one man. Thanks for sharing this insightful post. Wishing you best of luck in this contest

no one will feel happy after being disobeyed, I agree with your words. I feel bad when my younger brothers and sisters don't listen to me.

Parents are responsible for grooming and training of their children. Parents should note their children while performing different activities.
