Acts 5:29

To obey God vs to obey men.  I see this in the lives of Shad-Rack, Me-Shack, and Abednigo (Butchered those name, I apologize.)  Anyway, the three of them were told to bow down to the king, but they were told by God first that they were to only worship the Lord God almighty.  They were then cast into a fiery furnace for not obeying the Lord God almighty, but Jesus met them in the furnace and not even a single hair on there bodies were singed, the flames were so intense the dudes that threw them into the fire were killed by the flames, but those three were not even touched.  They were obedient to God and were rewarded due to this.  I also see this in the life of Daniel.  Daniel was obedient to God and prayed to Him, even though Nebuchadnezzar had a law decreed that said you could only pray to the king for 90 days.  Nebuchadnezzar only did this due to the jealousy of the other servants and Daniel being a favorite.  Anyway he was thrown into the den of hungry lions and God shut the mouthes of the lions.  Then after Daniel survived the night, to the delight of Nebuchadnezzar he threw the evil henchmen into the Lions den and they were chomped to bits.  Obedience man.  We are called to obey God, yes we are to obey men to, but if it does not agree to God then we aren’t to listen to them.  Anarchy isn’t the answer, but in the States abortion is legal, that doesn’t mean Christians should have abortions, we nee to listen to God and know every life is precious.  Weed is becoming more and more legal, but I don’t need to smoke pot.  I need to listen to God and not man.  So for application today, if I am told to do something unbiblical, I will listen to God and explain to them that it’s unbiblical.  I doubt that will happen in the Potter’s Field Walls, but if so.  I will listen to God and not man.
