You have to believe that God can do all that which is impossible to man, when you obey HIM fully. “Noah did everything just as God commanded him”. Genesis 6 :22. If Noah had disobeyed God and built the ark according to his own knowledge, he would have perished in the great flood, together with the other members of his household. When you take time and obey God in all your undertakings, you will never go wrong, as God will not mislead you. The wisdom of God is far better than the wisdom of men; as the latter is like foolishness in the eyes of God.
Our God never makes mistakes as He knows what He is doing all the time. HE is the MASTER PLANNER and nothing will ever go wrong under HIS instructions. Child of God, I encourage you to obey HIM fully and look up to HIM as your best friend. You will never regret it.
Partial obedience is equal to total disobedience and this stinks in the nostrils of God. You must be prepared to respond obediently to God’s will for your life, as revealed in the scriptures. The Bible tells us in Exodus 12: 24-28, “Obey these instructions as a lasting ordinance for you and your descendants. When you enter the land that the Lord will give you as He promised, observe this ceremony”. “And when your children ask you, “What does this ceremony mean to you”, then tell them, “It is the Passover sacrifice to the Lord, who passed over the
houses of the Israelites in Egypt and spares our homes when He struck down the Egyptians.” Then the people bowed down and worshipped. The Israelites did just what the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron”.
The Israelites obeyed God to the letter, as they were preparing for their exodus from Egypt. Your availability and obedience are very important if you want to do God’s will in God’s way, and not your own way. You must be ready to move from the familiar to the unfamiliar, at the moment God tells you to move. If the Israelites had disobeyed God, even in a very small way, things could have worked out differently for them and they would have regretted it.
You will be a winner always, if you obey God all the time and not just sometimes. You will enjoy the peace of God when you obey Him. Total obedience attracts lots of blessings, divine favour, protection and direction. Paul says in 2 Corinthians 2:9, “The reason I wrote you was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything”. Our great father, Abraham, stood the test and was obedient when God told him to sacrifice his only son, Isaac, to Him. “Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about”. Genesis 22:2. Abraham did not waste time in obeying God and Jehovah honoured his obedience. He did not ask questions and he did not see first and obey; he obeyed first and saw later.
When you love God and believe in Him 100%, you will obey Him fully. You will pass the test always as Abraham did. Total obedience, without questions, is what requires from you. “Then you will remember to obey all my commands and will be consecrated to your God”. Numbers 15:40.
Jehovah’s goal for us is to become a people who obey at all times. King David told his son, Solomon, “so be strong, show yourself a man, and observe what the Lord your God requires: Walk in His ways, and keep His decrees and commands. His laws and requirements, as written in the law of Moses, so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go” 1 Kings 2:2b-3.
Child of God, you can see that your total prosperity is tied to your obedience. I encourage you to be obedient to God’s instructions always; and you will never regret it. Disobedience attracts a lot of curses. You can read about this in Deuteronomy 28:15-end. I sincerely pray that this will not be your portion in Jesus’ Precious Name. Instead, you will have lots of blessings, as you determine to obey God always. AMEN.
