For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. — Romans 13:6 KJV
This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. — Romans 13:6 NIV
Reflection
We must trust God to provide for us as His children and that includes provision through the government authorities He puts in place. God is truly capable of using them for our good no matter who they are or what their intentions.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, I commit to live today in a way that honors my allegiance to you, my citizenship in my country, and my respect toward those whom I meet this day. In Jesus mighty name. Amen.
