Divine Flow 008: You Don’t Need Everyone’s Approval (Obedience Over Validation)

📖 Galatians 1:10 (NIV)
“Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.”

💬 Devotional Word:

You weren’t anointed by committee — so stop waiting for their cosign.

God didn’t call a focus group before He called you.
If you're still dimming your light to make others comfortable, you're not walking in Kingdom authority — you're walking in public opinion.

Sometimes obedience will look like rebellion to people who never heard what God told you.
But that’s not your problem — that’s their limitation.

You’re not here to please the crowd.
You’re here to carry the call.

🧠 The CALL Breakdown:

C – Chosen by design, not by accident
Your purpose isn’t random — it’s assigned.

A – Assigned before you were approved
He didn’t wait for applause to pick you.

L – Lead even if no one follows
Obedience > optics.

L – Let go of needing to be liked
They don’t have to understand your calling to respect it.

🔐 Say it aloud: “I don’t need permission to walk in purpose.”

🛠 POWER PROMPT:

Where have I been delaying obedience because I feared disapproval?
Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal where you're shrinking your assignment to fit in — and give you boldness to stand out anyway.

🙏 Closing Prayer:
Father,
Strip me of the addiction to applause. Anchor me in Your voice above all others. I don’t need a platform to obey You — I just need to say yes.
Today I walk in alignment, not approval.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
