GOD'S ORDER 2

"IF YOUR BOSS IS ANGRY AT YOU, DON'T QUIT! A quiet spirit can overcome even great mistakes."
Ecclesiastes 10:4 (NLT)

"IF THE SPIRIT OF THE RULER RISES AGAINST YOU, DO NOT LEAVE YOUR POST; For conciliation pacifies great offenses."
Ecclesiastes 10:4 (NKJV)

• If you are the type of person who is full of the self; you think of yourself more highly than you ought to (Romans 12:3), and believe only in what you do, thinking you are better than others, you definitely have pride in you:
3 DON'T BE SELFISH; DON'T TRY TO IMPRESS OTHERS. BE HUMBLE, THINKING OF OTHERS AS BETTER THAN YOURSELVES. 4 DON'T LOOK OUT ONLY FOR YOUR OWN INTERESTS, BUT TAKE AN INTEREST IN OTHERS, TOO" (Philippians 2:3,4 NLT).

• Pride can manifest in various or diverse ways in a believer's life. Someone who has spiritual prowess, cleverness and ingenuity, could be proud of it.
• That is, having the knowledge of the things of the Kingdom can make someone proud: " . . . WE know that we all have knowledge. KNOWLEDGE PUFFS UP, BUT LOVE EDIFIES" (1 Corinthians 8:1 NKJV).
• The truth is, whatever you value so much in your life, that makes you feel better than others, had become an instrument of pride.
• If the initial evidence or manifestation of pride in your life is not dealt with, It would lead to your downfall or ruination or destruction (Proverbs 16:18).
• Someone who wants recognition, who always wants to be acknowledged, has an element of pride in him or her. If you always want recognition for all you do, you have an element of pride in you!
• Someone who easily loses his or her temper, becomes angry over a little or insignificant thing or matter, has a problem with pride.
• Such a person always think about the self, his or her importance, or significance, or why they should be treated in a particular way, and If they were not treated or addressed in the way they had thought, they become or get offended and be annoyed. That is pride in action!

• Submit to godly authorities over your life.

• Wives, your husbands are God's representative, delegated authorities over your lives, submit to them (Ephesians 5:22; 1 Peter 3:1).
• God is orderly—He is a God of order. And He wants His children to respect the orders or rules He has set in place, or established (Romans 13:1; 1 Peter 2:13).
• Whoever is against God's order would not receive the best of Him. Where there is disorderliness in God's divine arrangement of things, anarchy sets in, and a curse follows (Romans 13:2; Ephesians 6:1-3).
• If a Curse is found in your life as a believer, check out or find out; you might have gone against God's divine order.
• Submit to the authorities established by God (1 Peter 2:13; 3:1). Wives to husbands, children to parents, church members to the ministers or their pastors, and workers or employees to their bosses or masters.
• God did set up delegates to represent His interests in your life as a believer:
  12 WE ASK YOU, BROTHERS, TO RESPECT THOSE WHO LABOUR AMONG YOU AND ARE OVER YOU IN THE LORD AND ADMONISH YOU, 13 AND TO ESTEEM THEM VERY HIGHLY IN LOVE BECAUSE OF THEIR WORK. Be at peace among yourselves. 14 And we urge you, brothers, admonish the idle, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all" (1 Thessalonians 5:12–14 (ESV).
  READ Hebrews 13:17
• If you dishonoured God's delegated authorities over your life, It may attract God's anger, or curse, and it might not be well. Do not do it!

• You will not fail in Jesus' name.

• Whatever is contrary to your health is cursed and uprooted in your body, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
• You are completely delivered from every oppression and affliction of the devil in Jesus' name.
  Peace!

STEPS TO SALVATION
• Take notice of this:
IF you are yet to take the step of salvation, that is, yet to be born-again, do it now, tomorrow might be too late (2 Corinthians 6:1,2; Hebrews 3:7,8,15).
a. Acknowledge that you are a sinner and confess your Sins (1 John 1:9); And ask Jesus Christ to come into your life (Revelation 3:20).
b. Confess that you believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord, and that you confess it with your mouth, Thus, you accept Him As your Lord and Saviour (Romans 10:9,10).
c. Ask that He will write your name in the Book of Life (Philippians 4:3; Revelation 3:8).

• If you took the steps As highlighted above, It means you are saved—born-again. Join a Word based church in your area and Town or city, and be part of whatever they are doing there. Peace!
