In this episode of Another Day in His Steps, Dave brings a profound word on the tension between submission and rebellion, authority and independence, and honor and dishonor. Drawing from Romans 13, he unpacks the biblical call to honor governing authorities—even when those in power are imperfect or corrupt. Dave reminds us that authority is God's design, not man's invention, and when we resist rightful authority, we resist God's divine order. He challenges listeners to move beyond political division and return to a posture of submission that reflects trust in God's sovereignty, no matter the circumstances.
Through this message, Dave encourages us to embrace humility and love as we navigate the complexities of leadership and authority. He highlights how submission is not weakness but strength under control—acknowledging that true honor comes from recognizing God’s hand in all things, even when systems fail. The episode also emphasizes the importance of praying for those in power and walking in love, which fulfills the law of God and enables us to respond rightly, even in difficult times.
If you've wrestled with frustration, offense, or rebellion, this episode is a call to realign your heart with Heaven’s order. Let God restore your posture of honor, bring healing to your spirit, and lead you back into a place of peace under His protection.
Stay humble. Stay submitted. Stay in love. And remember—true authority is always aligned with God's sovereign will.
