“But Peter and the apostles replied, ‘ we must obey God rather than any human authority.'” Acts 5:29
Our God promises to do for us what we are unable to do for ourselves. In Jesus is the gift of salvation. He places his holy word in our minds so that we can know it, he places it in our hearts so that we can love it. Through his Holy Spirit, our God gives us power to obey and delight in his ways. Obedience to God is not only a way to worship him, but also a way to get closer to him. It is a way for us to prepare for whatever he leads us to and to continue to grow as a person in Jesus. Being obedient to God in heaven involves submission to him. We must surrender to him and trust his ways. We must know that his ways are better than ours and have faith that he will be with us at every turn. Our obedience to him reveals our love and dedication to his truths and his promises. Being obedient to our God is simply hearing his word and acting upon it. We must continue to pray each day, read his word and do what he tells us to do. We must align our lives with what God is asking of us. He loves us and will not lead us to into temptation or into experiences where we cannot be successful. We must always believe and receive. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
