Day 4 - A Kingdom Man Follows His Rule Book “You’ve got to be right or wrong. I love the satisfaction when you are right and the agony when you are wrong. – Ed Hochuli Quarterback Russell Wilson released a high, arcing Hail Mary pass toward the end zone. Two Seattle Seahawks and four Green Bay Packers leaped to catch it. One official signaled touchdown Seahawks. One official signaled interception Packers. The score stood. The Seahawks won. And the third team was the source of great controversy. The third team? The team of officials in this case allegiance belongs to a different kingdom: the NFL. Their authority comes from a book that holds the guidelines, rules, and regulations by which they are to manage the events on the field. If an official’s viewpoint leaves the book, he demotes himself to the status of a fan; he becomes illegitimate in term of authority. Men, you have received instructions from the League office in heaven. You have been given the Book under the authority of the Lord Christ. To rule well, to bring order to the chaos in this war called life, you must align your heart and mind with God’s sovereign instruction and guidelines. You must sharpen your ear to the call of you Commissioner. You must hide His Book in your heart to rule well according to His purpose. Application: 1. What are you doing to know your rule Book? 2. How can you restore order to your domain rather than add chaos? 3. How will you align your heart with God’s Word today? Prayer: Great Commissioner, align my head and heart with Your Word today. Shape me to Your standards and enable me to bring order as Your official. Amen! #AKingdomMan
