What Did God Say?
Acts 5:29 (KJV)
"Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men"
Blessings brothers and sisters in Christ. To God be all the Glory!
We must understand and realize the POWER and the greatness of Christ that lives within us! Yes, within us! "Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me:" Galatians 2:20b. Yes, since we have received Christ as our Lord and Saviour it is HE that breath, moves our limbs to do the Will of the Father. But! we must die daily in order for Him to have full access, control to do so.
Just because we live in the world do not mean we are to be apart of the World, catch that! We are representatives of Christ- ambassadors of the Heavenly Kingdom here on earth as it is in heaven. We must move, speak and give as such. When we allow the world, things of the world, master of this world dictate to us what to say and what to do we ARE NOT being obedient unto our Heavenly Father.
Peter, along with the other Apostles declared "We ought to OBEY GOD rather than men". How dare we place any value on man thoughts or words over our Father thoughts and words! Remember God word is the 1st and last authority in our lives. God's word that has been spoken over lives is already settled in Heaven. Our Heavenly Father made it very clear what He thinks of us "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end" Jeremiah 29:11 -
Let us lean more unto the Lord, by speaking His word, praying His word, living His word and never neglecting what Christ has done for us on the Cross!
Be Blessed~
