Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:7"
If you have a problem with submission as child of GOD, it is time to say to yourself, "I AM SUBMITTED TO GOD". The more you say it to yourself, the Holy Spirit will empower you to submit to Him and hence to those in authority.
A child of God should freely submit to God so that it will be easy for him to resist the devil and all manner of evil. Praise the Lord! If you do not submit to God, you cannot resist the devil and evil. Hence, you will become proud like the enemy and become his footstool, being controlled by him.
That is the more reason that some Christians cannot make much progress with the gospel.
Be an exception and submit to God and the authority in your church and your state. God will richly bless you.
