Romans 13:1-7Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God; and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves. For rulers are not a cause of fear for good behavior, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear of authority? Do what is good and you will have praise from the same;read more.
for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath on the one who practices evil. Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of wrath, but also for conscience' sake. For because of this you also pay taxes, for rulers are servants of God, devoting themselves to this very thing. Render to all what is due them: tax to whom tax is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.

I know wherever I go, I don't go alone. I don't go in my own authority. I agree with the Centurion. If Jesus will just say the word I can have faith in whatever He ask me to do. I can have faith for wherever He ask me to go. My job is to believe. It is God's job to make a way even when there is no way. He is the Waymaker not me. Orphans feel as if it's going to be it's up to them. Those of us that are sons of God, those of us that are adopted into the household of faith know that God will make a way for us.
ACTION STEP: Obey those in authority over you. Bring those that are holding the umbrella over your head joy! They are carrying more weight than us. One day if we will just be faithful to submit with joy, we will reap followers that will be just like us. God is not mocked whatsoever a man sows that she he also reap. Sow seeds that you want to harvest!
