But Samuel replied: " Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and
sacrifices as much as much as in obeying the voice of the Lord?"
To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat rams.
1 Samuel 15:22
Obedience to God and what his Word tells us is crucial. Obedience shows God we consider him holy and worthy of honor. Obedience shows us that our Faith is real. So how can you honor God daily?
When God says something to you in his Word, take it personally.
Reading the passage on honoring your husband or taming your tongue doesn't fulfill your obligation; your actions reflect your heart towards God. Obedience honors God. Disobedience dishonors him. The practice of obedience will align your heart with God's own desire. For "just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: Be holy, because I am holy" (1 Peter 1:15-16)
We sometimes need that gentle check from the Lord to stay on the right path. I want to be able to take everything the Lord has given me to a higher level.
I take everything Personal when it comes to God. He shows me things that help me with my daily struggles and with my personal walk with him.
I hope you take everything the Lord has to offer you personally too!
Because he loves you and wants the best for you.
I hope you have a wonderfully blessed week!
