_________________________________________________________ GOD'S ENCOURAGEMENT TODAY
Be Submissive
1 Peter 2:13
Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every human institution
The world system in which we were raised says that you are nothing, so
compete, scheme, achieve and strive to get ahead. The Bible teaches that
you are something, so be submissive. Here's how Peter said it: "You
are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's
own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has
called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; for once you were
not a people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received
mercy, but now you have received mercy" (1 Peter 2:9, 10).
Only after that affirmation of us being the people of God does Peter
say, "Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every human
institution" (verse 13), and "Servants, be submissive to your
masters" (verse 18). He even relates it to the home: "In the
same way, you wives, be submissive to your own husbands" (1 Peter
3:1).
Submission is not a dirty word; it is a liberating word. We are all
under God's protective authority, and we can only be free if we seek it
and submit to it. Coming under authority is your protection. Living free
is your opportunity to be all that God created you to be.
There are two types of people who will never live up to their potential
in Christ: those who can't do what they are told to do and those who
won't do anything unless they are told. Don't wait to be told what you
are already free to do. Step out in faith and live up to your potential
in Christ. You can bring light into a dark world if you will allow
Christ to shine through you. You don't need a greater position; bloom
where you are planted. Stop waiting for the big opportunity and seize
the one you have. Someone in your world of influence desperately needs
what Christ can do through you.

Oh let us

He loves to come and bring His love
He loves to come and bring His touch, to my heart
