Answer:

D. It strengthened the monarch's authority to  rule.

Explanation:

The divine right was essentially the foundation in which the government was in place. Remember, many people in the European lands were deeply religious. To connect the standing government with the permission of the divine, would ensure that the people follow them for fear of the wrath of the God(s).
