OBEDIENCE TO GOD IS OBLIGATORY
MEMORY VERSE: “Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine” (EXODUS 19:5).
All of God’s promises are hinged on obedience. Also, God’s blessings and covenant with His children are sustained by obedience. Half or partial obedience is disobedience. Adam and Eve, Pharaoh, Moses, Saul, the young prophet, Jonah and Balaam, all experienced the painful consequences of disobedience.

Implicit obedience starts in hearing God’s word. Once He has spoken, our obedience should be prompt, entire and unconditional: “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves” (James 1:22).
We must not understand in details all of God’s instructions before we obey Him. There is no sense in coming up with your own ideas when it is only God’s counsel that will stand. Rebellion against God’s will attracts His displeasure and wrath. It leads to avoidable problems such as withdrawal of God’s favour, stagnation, delay, failure and even untimely death.
My friend, are there some areas in your life in which you are not obedient to God? Maybe not outright sin; possibly, unequal yoke with sinners or not letting your light shine. Do not be a disobedient child.
QUOTE: Do not be a disobedient child.
CHALLENGE: Spiritual growth is directly proportional to obedience.
PRAYER: Lord, give me a heart that trembles at your word.
