Love God Greatly: Ecclesiastesনমুনা

SOAP – Ecclesiastes 8:4-5; Solomon urges us to submit to the authority that God has placed above us. We are responsible to God in all things, but we must also submit to the civil, government, and work authority that God has placed us under. That is unless that authority contradicts the Word of God. We have to remember, believers have dual citizenship. This world is not our home. While we are here, we must act as valuable and productive citizens, but always with our eyes, our heart, and our actions turned towards God. Believers have a calling to pray passionately for those in our government, in our work leadership, and in authority over us that they too may turn their hearts towards God.
