OBEDIENCE Intro

OBEDIENCE

*In a simple term, obedience simply means to do as being ordered,to do what one has been asked to do*

*God delights in our obedience, 1st Samuel 15:22 reads NIV:But Samuel replied: “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.*

*Christ humled himself and became obedient to death Philippians 2:8 and as an expression of our love for Him,we must keep to the words of his Father John 14:24*

*One of the dangerous implication of disobedience is that it can affect many and lead to death(1st Corinthians 15:22). Just your disobedience, just my disobedience will affect others*

*Romans 5:19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous*

*And the greatest joy of obedience is that it gives life with prolonged days on Earth Deutronomy 5:33 and it attracts countless Blessings. Deutronomy 28:1-2*

*A simple obedience attracts great blessings just in the case of Simon Peter and his partners James and John who had toiled all night,eventually,they didn't just catch plenty fishes,they were made fishers of men Luke 5:1-11*
