Learn to be Obedient!

But Samuel replied, "What is more pleasing to the Lord: your burnt offerings and sacrifices or your obedience to His voice? Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice and submission is better than the fat of rams. - 1 Samuel 15:22
Sometimes we need to think. Which is more important? Sacrifices of money or obedience to His Word? 2nd option of course you might say! But the 2nd option is the hardest, especially for Saul. Samuel hadn't appeared yet and he didn't want to give it late. No matter how long or how hard it is, what God has said we must do. MUST. There is no escape. A Christian's life is led by God, meaning obedience is required. If you don't learn how to obedient you will not succeed in your walk with God. You will be stumbling and falling because you cannot listen to that voice of obedience. It doesn't matter how good or great your plan is. If it is not out of obedience but of disobedience it WILL NOT WORK! Your plans are hopeless without God! God is the Creator of all things! He designed the whole world! And you want to make some plan you don't even know if it will work! Obedience is better than sacrifice!

What makes faith work? Learn MORE about faith in this devotional...

"That according to the riches of His glory, He may grant you to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith..." - Ephesians 3:16-17 KJV Okay. I wanted to talk a little bit more on faith. When Paul writes 'dwell in your hearts through faith' what does it mean? This means that we have to show our confidence and belief in Christ, before He comes into our hearts. He knows when we want to trick Him or not. So don't bother being cunning! Because wisdom comes from the Lord! So, if our human efforts cannot make faith to work, what can? (Zechariah 4:6) Our confidence and belief in Jesus! We just have to say, "Jesus, take care of this for me. I don't want to any more. I can't do it by my own power." Acknowledging that you can't do it alone, gives you the first step forward. Then comes the hard bit. When I mean hard, I mean HARD. Because most people people fall away aft...
