Be reverent in God's house 2.

“But if I delay, this letter will let you know how we should conduct ourselves in God's household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and support of the truth.”                
1 Timothy 3:15(KJV)

The right attitude and behaviour in God's house towards those who God has placed in authority over you can not be over emphasized.

A minister told a story of a man who insulted a man of God and lost his mind as a result. This is why I am sharing these things with you so that as you grow in Christ, you would not be ignorant of these things. You must recognize spiritual authority and have reverence for men of God.

When the man I told you about earlier was taken to a man of God to pray for him because of his insanity, it was revealed that his insanity came because he insulted a man of God, and the full healing will not come until he goes back to make amends.

The Bible says in Proverbs 9:10, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” It is important for you to be wise in spiritual things. Don't listen to the counsel of those who are unlearned in these things, even though they may be Christians. They are the ones who ask questions like, “why do you honour your Pastor the way you do?” This is because they do not understand what it means for someone to be a man of God.
     
I pray that God will grant you an understanding of these things, and how you ought to behave yourself in the house of God.

Prayer.
Dear Father, I ask that you fill me with the knowledge of your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. So that I may walk worthy of you, living a life that is fully pleasing to you today and always, in Jesus Name. Amen.
