Don't forget to be obedient to Authority (Both God adn Man)

S - Scripture     

Matthew  22 v. 21  They said "Caesar". Then he said to them, "Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesars and to God the things that are God's."   

 

O - Observation    

Obedience. That's what this verse is all about. Jesus instructs us to obey the laws of the land, "rendering to Caesar what is Caesars". Agree or disagree with the "Casers" in our life; Country - President, State - Governor, City - Mayor, Work - Boss, we need to recognize that God put them in place, we need to have confidence that his plans are perfect and have reason, even if we don't see it. Rendering to God. What sort of things are God's? 1st, ourselves. Psalm 139.13, For thou didst form my inward parts, thou didst knit me together in my mothers womb. God made us. He made us to have a relationship with him.

 

A - Application  

Are we rendering to Caesar - Respecting the Laws of the Land? And... are we rendering to God - Having a personal relationship with him?        

 

P - Prayer      

Jesus, Help me to be obedient to you and the Caesar's in my life. Love Will.
