Cost of Disobedience.



And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. 
- Gen. 17:1.

The above scripture was a rebuke, because of what happened in chapter 16 of Genesis.
When God ask us not to sin, all of the time it's for our own benefit. The result of disobeying God in Genesis chapter sixteen, is what the world is suffering from to-date.
In Samuel chapter eight, the children of Israel demanded for their own king, and God told them "I Am your King" they refuse to obey, but insisted and finally God said OK have yourself a King; we have seen repercussion of that decision. How it has hinder the growth of that Nation.
Also, in Isaiah thirty-eight when God sent Isaiah the prophet to Hezekiah the king to set his house in order, for it's time for him to die. Vs 2 and 3 said the king, Hezekiah turned his face to the wall prayed and wept sore.
And God said ok, in vs 5 God said to Hezekiah, "... I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears:..." in chapter 39 we saw how King Hezekiah walked into error that could have been prevented, had he flow through in chapter 38.
When God give us a command it's all for our benefits, not His; disobeying God means we are obeying the enemy.

Right from Adam's transgression, we have seen that disobeying God has not helped us at all, rather put generations after generations into bondage. Yet, we still fall for the same traps over and over again through the "... Lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh and pride of life..." 1 John 2:16. "... we are not ignorant of his devices." 2 Cor. 2:11.

We can make a quality decision today to walk in obedience, and escape the traps of the devil. We are not perfect but, His grace will guide us.
We can start by obeying Joshua 1:8, Matthew 6:33 as a guide.

Press In

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.... – Colossians 3:16 Things in this old world aren't getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He's been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don't, you won't make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine. That message isn't just for me. It's also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It's an exciting time, but it's also a dangerous time. Those who don't do what the Spirit says, who don't press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus' Name! Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating i...

The Needful or Obvious Pt.1

And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. - Luke 10:41-42. Nobody just happened, we are created for specific purpose. Everybody cannot be head, or leg, or hand etc., each and everyone most identify their place and stay there, thus makeup the body system. The leg cannot say the hand is not performing its functions adequately, as a result, he will take its functions over. The leg would be led by the obvious and abuse its own purpose instead, why? He was not created to perform the function of the hand. When these things are properly understood, it will help us to gain speed towards the fulfillment of our purpose. Everyone will give account of his or her stewardship, when the time comes, what will be your report, when all that you have been doing is the obvious(somebody else's assignment), and ignoring yours or ...
