See how far in life you've gone,

See the heights of life you've climbed,

See the depth of glory you've touched,

All these is made possible by God your Creator. I hope you always reverence Him duly for His marvelous hand over you. With all these benefits from Him, 

There's a king in the Scripture (1 Samuel 15:1-34) Saul by name. This was raised to the top by God but wouldn't continue with the command of God who made him king. This is a sad story, he lost the kingdom. he lost the relationship with God's Spirit, he couldn't be with God again til he died. What a lonely soul! 

Samuel asked him why he chose to disobey God, he replied "They have brought them from the Amalekites; for the people spared the best of the sheep and the oxen, to sacrifice to the LORD, your God and the rest we have utterly destroyed." 1 Samuel 15:15.

WHOSE VOICE DO YOU OBEY NOW : GOD'S OR THE PEOPLE'S?. God favoured you to the top, do you now need people's favour to remain at the top? Whose favorite are you now since you became the talk of the town, office, school, and etcetera? How about God who orchestrated you up? Validation of man you say matters, how about the validation of God? King Saul continued years being favoured by people but not God.

Your appointment to the seat is not by chance but by the election of God's grace, would you now give God's glory to people to have them remain your followers? Wouldn't you acknowledge God as your 'Godfather'? or because you want to remain and have people's approval would you now let God down in your school as teacher, principal, head girl, head boy and what have you? Would you give in to sexual sin because 'everyone' does that? Or have you forgotten that God's name is also Almighty, do you want to wield your power and influence ungodly just as people advised you?

Saul choice of words tell he feared the people whom God had made him rule over. You're not king I know but 

1. Do you deliver God's words to the fullest at His charge?

2. Do you keep some part undelivered?

3. In your calling do people influence your decision which is actually God's mind?

4. Are you God's or people's favorite?

5. Do you polish God's intended Word to have people's approval?

6. Has people's way at your office overrides godliness in you?

7. Beloved, do you go day by day carrying and announcing God to people?

When men disobey God because of things, a person or persons this always cause rejection from the side of God to men. He's the Almighty, He cannot have His creatures put Him side by side with things or men, creatures. If you've by mistake done this in the time past there's forgivenes

s with God. He can restore your days if you go to Him in repentance. Though at any misplacement of the person of God by man there's always a shame of demotion of glory on the side of man. Henceforth let God be God at His command. Let His command be fully carried out irrespective of whose ox is gored.
