Question: What happens when I decide I will become my own source, protector, defender, and avenger?

This is where the orphan wound becomes a government issue.

Self-protection says:

“I have to do it.”

Sonship says:

“I have a Father.”

Persistent self-rule can place self on the throne of the heart.

First Samuel 15:23 connects stubbornness with iniquity and idolatry.

The lesson concludes with repentance:

“Abba, forgive me for trusting myself more than I have trusted You. Get me off the throne of my own heart. Teach me how to trust You.”
