Why You Should Not Joke With Government Work
3 years ago
~2.9 mins read
Honestly, the way I used to view government work in past is different now after learning this information. I know very well how foolish it sounds but sincerely, what I read today in the Bible was so shocking to me and it left thinking about a lot of things which I will let you know after I must have penned down what I read from the Bible this morning.
Obey the government, for God is the one who has put it there. There is no government anywhere that God has not placed in power. So those who refuse to obey the laws of the land are refusing to obey God, and punishment will follow. For the policeman does not frighten people who are doing the right; but those doing evil will always fear him. So if you don't want to be afraid, keep the laws and you will get along well. The policeman is sent by God to help you.
But if you are doing something wrong, of course you should be afraid, for he will have you punished. He is sent by God for that very purpose. Obey the laws,then,for two reasons: first, to keep from being punished, and second, just because you know you should.
Pay your taxes too, for these same two reasons. For government workers need to be paid so that they can keep on doing God's work, serving you. Pay everyone whatever he ought to have: pay your taxes and import duties gladly, obey those over you and give honor and respect to all those to whom it is due. Pay all your debts except the debt of love for others_ never finish paying that! For if you love them, you will be obeying all of God's laws, fulfilling all his requirements.
Romans 13:1_8
I don't know if you are thinking what am thinking because am lost in thought right now. Am just imagining how government workers are doing God's work. Seriously, am confusing because this is the first time I am reading this. Honestly am finding this very difficult to believe that politicians in government are doing God's work and my country is still like something that does not have adjective that can be used to qualify, in this present state. May God help us in this government because we need God's intervention to survive. Anyway, is not only my country that needs God's help, so do other government in all the world needs it because is God's work.
I was thinking is only church work that is God's work but now I have seen it that church is just like a government since both are God's work.
Hmm, you don't need to be a pastor or a reverend to do God's work because we now have another option which is to be a government worker. At least people should take it easy the way they are saying am doing God's work because as it is, everyone is doing God's work in one way or the other, maybe as a leader in church or in government. Even paying tax to the government and paying tithes and offering to church are still God's work and we are supporting God's work by paying those things.
Finally, I pray to have calling to work in government because somehow I want to do God's work. Am glad I can live a normal life and still be doing God's work.
Las las, I want to urge you to choose wisely where you want to do God's work and serve the people of God after you must have read this article.
Am so grateful to God for making me gain this knowledge and also for helping other people change their mind to do God's work just like I did, then those supporting God's work will happily keep supporting.
