THEME : OBEDIENCE
Verse of the Day : " You are my refuge and my shield; your word is my source of Hope." ( Psalm 119:114 - NLT )
Obedience is difficult at times and yet necessary in all things of God.
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 offering the fat of rams. " (1 Samuel 15:22 - NLT)
The Lord promises us great benefits if we obey!
Deutronomy 28 Declares that all these blessings will come upon you if you obey his voice. Ask God to help you to be obedient, take away the Human characteristic of Stubbornness and rebellion and replace it with Humble Obedience.
Then pray the rest of that group of scripture in Deutronomy in the ' First ' person; make it your own!
Prayer.
Jesus, I thank you for showing me things in my life that I need to work on, things that maybe hidden in my heart and so much a part of my nature that I don't realize how they've changed me and inhibited me from being all I can be in Christ.
Help me to be humbly obedient, knowing that blessings flow in the life of the child of God who can readily Submit to You being Lord in their life. Your word declares I will be blessed in the city , I will be blessed in the field. My children and all that I consider mine will be blessed. Wherever I go and whatever I do will be blessed by the Lord Most High if I keep my eyes on you and let you be the Lord in my life. I am forever Thankful, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
