Your Attitude To Spiritual Authority.

“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(GNB)

Today, I will like you to always learn to maintain the right attitude to spiritual authority especially in the way you conduct or behave yourself in the house of God, which is the Church of the living God. Do you know there are behaviours that are unacceptable in the house of God? For instance, showing contempt or despising an anointed man of God may have very serious consequences.

I will like to share a true story with you to explain this: A woman hissed while a minister was ministering in a church service. As a result, she became barren for years.

One day, she visited a genuine Prophet of God because of her inability to give birth. While the Prophet was ministering to her, it was revealed to him that she insulted a man of God, so he asked her if she ever insulted a man of God. She answered that she had never insulted a man of God. When he asked her, “Where did you hiss?, she immediately remembered how she had hissed in a service. Then, he instructed her according to the Word of the Lord, to go back to that Church where she hissed and apologize to the man of God, otherwise, she would never have a child.

When she went back to apologize to the minister in whose church she hissed, he said to her, “I did not hear you when you hissed,” but the woman still insisted that he should forgive her. So he told her that she was forgiven. That simple act of forgiveness shown by the minister delivered the woman from barrenness.
.
I encourage you to behave yourself with reverence in God's house. The man of God may not hear you hiss or hear those nasty or disrespectful remarks you make, but God hears you and his judgments are just. Therefore, be reverent.

Prayer.
Dear Father, I ask that You expose every seed of falsehood that have entered into my belief system, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Genesis 20:1-18, 2 Timothy 2:19-26, James 5:16.

Doing the Word.
As God exposes any wrong attitude or behaviour that may be hindering you, turn away from it. Also, if you have to reconcile with anyone, please do.
