LOYALTY AND DISLOYALTY

Sunday, 22nd November
Sermon by Chief Elder Johnson

         
Loyalty in simple terms means being faithful to a supreme authority or to oneself.
Paying allegiance to someone higher.
   A lot of people are not ready to obey the keeper of their souls.
                  1 Peter 2 : 25
Trying to prove you know more than your shepherd, forgetting that your shepherd's responsibility is to KEEP YOUR SOUL.

He will fight and do best to keep you alive, even if it will take his own life in the process.
The same applies to your parents who are also your shepherds.

        " In life you will have many fathers, who will teach you a PARTICULAR THING in every stage in every stage of your life."

HOW YOU CAN BE LOYAL TO AUTHORITY  be it your parents, pastor, chief elder or even yourself

•See Him In The Right Way
•Believe In Him. 2nd Chro. 20:20
•Obedience.  Eph 6:1
•Become A Son/Daughter
•Learn To Receive From Him
•Prevent Yourself From Being Familiar

SIGNS THAT SHOWS THAT YOU
ARE FAMILIAR

-Not writing when Man Of God is preaching
-Yawning during service
-Watsapping and receiving calls during service
-Checking your time and murmuring
-Talking and going out during service
-Always sitting at the back during church meetings
-Not attending meetings
-Not buying Pastor's books or listening to his messages
-Criticising the man of God
-Rating Pastor's preaching

           In the name of Jesus we ask for grace to be loyal to ourselves and to authority.
                                         Amen

IS IT POWERFUL ???
