In Psalm 2, verse 10-11, it states:
"Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling."
This is not only good advice for kings or leaders, but for us as well. In Romans
it tells us to pray for those in authority. As you read this command in Psalm 2,
you can see that we need to pray that our leaders and those who are running for political office must seek wisdom and follow any leading or instruction with an attitude that they are not only serving man, but God. Included in this is rejoicing or praise which promotes God's blessing.
In our lives, too, wisdom and obedience are important, and a "Serve the Lord, praiseworthy attitude as well. Once in a while, when something negative happens, I get temporarily tangled up and I find that the reason is that I am not being consciously aware that it is the Lord I am serving, so it doesn't make any difference if you get a negative response when you do something good. God certainly knows our hearts, and he "untangles" the knot every time, thank God.
May God Bless You,
Lady of Light
