FAITH CAPSULE:\u00a0<\/strong>Are you one with a disobedient lifestyle before God?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Samuel 15<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obedience demands commitment but denies convenience.\u00a0
Before God, disobedience is complete disobedience.
An act of disobedience will dislocate one unfailingly.
Think of it and know that obedience is sacrifice.
The word of God demands obedience with no excuse or compromise.\u00a0
Rising in response to the word of God is not enough without moving directly to the word of God.
King Saul was an example of disobedience to the word of God and not moving forward to do according to the word of God.
God sent Samuel to Saul,\u00a0\u201cThus says the Lord of hosts: \u2018I will punish Amalek for what he did to Israel, how he ambushed him on the way when he came up from Egypt. 3 Now go and attack Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and do not spare them. But kill both man and woman, infant and nursing child, ox and sheep, camel, and donkey.\u2019\u201d (1 Samuel 15:2-3)<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0
King Saul rose in obedience but failed to move according to the word of God.
Saul spared some and destroyed others as he was pleased to disobey the word of God.\u00a0
Disobedience to God will always provoke God against the disobedient one.
Rising in obedience to the word of God is not enough without moving to do as commanded.\u00a0
Many are failing before God, not obeying according to the word of God.
Are you one with a disobedient lifestyle before God?
Jonah, a servant of God, answered but failed to move according to the word of God.\u00a0
Jonah 1:1-3<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0records,\u00a0\u201cNow the word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, 2 \u2019Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.\u2019 3 But Jonah arose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish, so he paid the fare and went down into it to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0
Jonah responded by hearing but followed the dictates of his heart.
The disobedience of Jonah was half-obedience.
The disobedience led him into the belly of a fish, a dark place, an unfamiliar ground for Jonah.\u00a0
An act of disobedience will dislocate one unfailingly.
Disobedience to the word of God is not complete obedience.\u00a0
So many have started with obedience to God but failed as disobedient to God.
Jonah, by his disobedience, entered self-affliction.
Jonah called on God,\u00a0\u201cThen Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the fish\u2019s belly. And he said: \u2018I cried out to the LORD because of my affliction, and He answered me. \u201cOut of the belly of Sheol, I cried, and You heard my voice.\u201d (Jonah 2:1-2)<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0
God answered Jonah, and his repentance to God delivered him from incomplete obedience.\u00a0
To fully obey the command of God is all that counts before God.\u00a0
Excuse for disobedience failed King Saul.\u00a0
Disobedience is not what God wants from all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prayer for today: <\/strong>Ask God to enable you not to be a failure in His calling over your life.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
