Listen "Submitting... How on earth can we do it??"
Episode Synopsis
Today on the Daily Nugget Podcast, Mike focuses on Romans 13:1–7, where
Paul reminds us that all authority ultimately comes from God. Mike shares
how God delegates His authority to different spheres of leadership — in
government, the workplace, the church, and the home — and how our response
to that authority reflects our trust in God’s sovereign design. He
emphasizes that we are called to submit in the gray areas where the Bible
doesn’t give direct commands, showing respect and humility toward those in
leadership. However, when an authority’s command directly contradicts God’s
Word, our loyalty must remain with the Lord — even if that means facing
difficult consequences. This passage challenges us to live with wisdom,
discernment, and a deep awareness that honoring rightful authority is one
way we honor God Himself.
