I read a great quote the other day :''SOMEBODY IS WAITING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF YOUR OBEDIENCE "........the questions for you & me are 1. What do I need to obey ? 2. How many people are waiting ? 3. What will be the outcome if I refuse to obey ?4. Am I even posturing myself to hear what God requires of me ?
Valid questions that require some sincere , serious , spiritual reflection ! 1 SAMUEL 15 : 22 says"DOES THE LORD DELIGHT IN BURNT OFFERINGS & SACRIFICES AS MUCH AS IN OBEYING THE VOICE OF THE LORD? TO OBEY IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE & TO HEED IS BETTER THAN THE FAT OF RAMS."
If there are requests from God in your journey of faith , if there are non-negotiable calls from His heart , word & promptings to you today .
Stop merely thinking about how it will effect YOU & YOURS , what will it mean for YOUR plans and goals , and start having a much larger vision from God Almighty . Jesus loves you and has a perfect plan for your life that involves meeting the many people in locations and circumstances that you would not have normally chosen for yourself . In addition to that truth , you would never have experienced if you had not chosen to be obedient to the call of God upon your life .
When will we realise that we must give our lives ........for people NEED THE LORD !!!!!
Don't get shipwrecked on the sea of SELFISHNESS , SELF-SERVING , SELF-FOCCUSSED , EGO .
Let Jesus be LORD of your choices today .......others are waiting for your radical , revolutionary ,
renewed , response to Jesus with a resounding 'YES' .
ETERNITY MATTERS
