MESSAGE: OBEDIENCE TO LEADERS by Pst Value `)

   OBEDIENCE TO LEADERS (This week's 20 /2/ 2015 Friday Service Teaching) by Pst Value Uba

The warfare that Christians are fighting is one in which the Christian is blinded to  the spiritual forces which it is fighting.In the sense that you cannot see the devil or demons with your physical eyes but they see you. Thus the key to defeat these spiritual enemies is non other than OBEDIENCE

 Some people obey out of necessity and that is not true obedience. True obedience is born out of Love and not by force or necessity.



LEADERS TO OBEY.

(1.) SPIRITUAL LEADERS. An example of such leader is your pastor
Heb 13:17
    The leader's duty is to protect its followers. i.e pray for them e.t.c and also the duty of the follower is to obey his leader.
Failure to do so is unprofitable to you as a follower. When there is no body interceding for you e.g your Leader, you are totally exposed to danger.
        Leaders have been singled out by God as symbol of authority and so God listens to them. When you disobey them, you disobey God
Please NOTE. Even when your leader makes mistake, you must not disrespect them as in the case of Moses, Miriam and Aaron in Numbers 12:1-16
There can't be two Moses in Israel. Every organization has a leader. There are no two leaders.
If you are disobedient to a higher authority, people under you will be disobedient to you. Rom 13:1-10

People who oppose rulers or leaders in the house of God opposes what God has ordained and they will be punished.    Psalm 105:15

Finally True Leaders are threat to evil people and not to good people.

PRAYER> Oh God  give my the strength to be an effectively leader and also a true follower in which ever case you I myself..

God Bless you in Jesus Name Amen
