You should especially show honor in the instances where you think of yourself as better that your authority. It is better to put aside your pride and let your leaders exercise their power and authority that they have been given.

By not doing it out of joy would make it a burden that would eventually make you walk away from the promises that God has given you. If David had decided to hate Saul instead of submitting himself to his authority then he would have went against God’s plan and ended up the same as Saul. Being submitted is not meant to be a chore but is meant to be something that will better everyone that is in that
