TODAY'S DEVOTION. SUBMISSIVE ATTITUDE.
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE.“For he adds rebellion [in his unsubmissive, defiant attitude toward God] to his unacknowledged sin; he claps his hands [in open mockery and contempt of God] among us, and he multiplies his words of accusation against God.”(Job 34:37 AMPC).
Success in life and destiny is about submission! Until you submit you cannot succeed. You must be submisive to God and those above you if you must win in the race of life. Submission is the act of being ready to conform to the authority or will of others in a meek and obedient manner.The Bible says submit yourself to God, then resist the devil and he will flee(James 4:7).
No matter how you big you become in life, you will always have people ahead of you! Whether at home or in your neighborhood. God fashioned the earth to operate that way. No man is an island. We are all synchronized to be under a specific authority. The centurion in the Bible received a miracle from Jesus based on this fact. He said “For I also am a man subject to authority, with soldiers subject to me. And I say to one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my slave, Do this, and he does it.”(Matthew 8:9 AMPC).
A submissive attitude entails being under authority where you can take orders and obey without any complain. Do you have people in your life who can tell you to sit down and without any questions or hard feelings you can obey them?
Are you under any authority of people you cannot say no to? Or you are your own boss at home and abroad? Do you compete with your boss or your husband at home? As a man do you listen to your mentors instructions ? Do you have anyone who acts as a father figure in your life? You need a submissive attitude for your altitude.
TODAY'S DISCUSSION.
What is responsible for people displaying an "unsubmissive attitude ' ?
