Pray this Lazaroo in heart-pounding love:

“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right.”
(1 Peter 2:13-14)

It’s a spiritual crime, Jesus

to disobey those You’ve placed over me.

That’s a game-changer!

I will do my best to obey those in authority

who are obeying You.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority…to the emperor, as the supreme authority…”
(1 Peter 2:13)

This one’s hard to do, Jesus

whether the supreme authority is an evil dictator
or somebody I voted against.

But it has nothing to do with them, does it?

You command me to submit to them
for Your sake.

So for your sake – when it comes to preference –

I will.

But if they ever require me to disobey You

they can take a hike.
