The are many things that can preserve the Christianity of anybody under the sun. One of them is submission. The opposite of submission is rebellion. God does not work with rebellious people but He works with those who submit, not to Him only but even those who are above you.
If you want to check whether this is real or not look at all great man of God you can think of. If you conduct an investigation you will realise that they are all humble and submissive to their spiritual fathers and other members in the congregation.
No matter how somebody is anointed, if he/she is not submissive he/she can go anywhere. Prophet Angel once spoke a profound statement. He said that it is amazing that those who think they have power do not like submission, but those who have got the power of God prioritise submission.
The most painful thing is that there are some pastors and teachers who have failed to submit to their leaders to the extent that they got pierced off and formed their own churches. What do you think is the future of those churches. Remember God is not a respecter of any person. We need to be careful and not attract the wrath of God.
Every Christian have to bear this in mind that God uses a men to take you to your destiny. This is the concept that has worked for me for a couple of previous years. I have checked the bible and realised that sometimes and many times God uses a men to help another man to reach his/her destiny.
Check with me in the New Testament books you will realise this. When God wanted the Ethiopian Eunuch to be hear what once Isiah prophesied he sent Philip to help him. This Eunuch ended up being baptised by Philip. The million dollar question is "Why God Himself did not dealt with this man?"
When Saul (Paul) met Jesus on his way to Damascus to prosecute brethren, after all had happened Jesus instructed Paul to go to a certain place to hear from Ananias what he shall do after. Ananias in a vision was also told to meet Paul and do what God has instructed Him. Also think of Cornelius how he was saved. God sent Peter.
After checking all the facts you will realise that submission can help you from expiring as a child of God. We need to follow the biblical men of faith on how they submitted to their leaders. This is evident that if you don not submit to anyone you are not going anywhere as a Christian. We need to be humble because God raise all those who are humble.
