The Bible
says Jesus has been placed “high above all other government and authority
and power and dominion, and every title of sovereignty used either in this Age
or in the Age to come” Ephesians 1:21 (Weymouth New Testament Bible). For
that reason, it makes no difference what the title is; be it President, Prime Minister,
President General, Chief Judge, etc. Jesus is above them all. He’s above every
title of sovereignty and government. Now, what does this mean for the Church? For the Lord is our judge, the LORD is our
lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us. Isaiah 33:22.
Remember,
He’s the head, and the Church is His body; He and the Church are one; we go by
the same name. Thus, in union with Him, the Church is above, and has a say in, any
and every government in this world. Therefore, those who think the Church is helpless,
beggarly, and weak, must think again. Isaiah 33:22, “For the LORD is our judge
(that’s the Judiciary), the LORD is our lawgiver (that’s the
legislature), the LORD is our king (that’s the executive)…”
Jesus
and the Church have a say in every arm of government. He’s the Judge, the Lawgiver,
and the King! Have these in your mind, and stand up for Jesus and the Church
everywhere, irrespective of the opposition. If you stand up for Him, he’ll stand
for you.
Jesus
said, “…All power is given unto me in heaven and earth” Matthew
28:18. Then in the next verse, He said, on the basis and authority of that
power, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations….” You country isn’t
left out; you have authority in His Name. He said in Matthew 28:20, “…lo,
I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
Refuse
to be intimidated by any law, regulation, or policies that are against the Gospel;
keep serving the Lord faithfully. But control and influence the government and
the leaders in your prayers and the exercise of spiritual authority in the name
of Jesus Christ
