I Samuel 15:13-23

Most of what brings man into the trap of the enemies is a product of disobedience. When a man works in disobedience, God will definitely back out of his life, and that gives room to the enemy. Most people believe in disobeying God and come begging with sacrifices later. But wisdom tells us that obedience is better. 

Obedience is walking according to the instructions of God. Any time God guides us, He is simply making us to walk in His plan for our lives. And this plan He has for us is a portion of His big plan for the whole world. So when we disobey God, we are simply obstructing His plan. We are joining the enemy of God, the devil, to disrupt the plan of God. That is why the Bible says, disobedience is likened to rebellion and witchcraft and stubbornness as iniquity and idolatry (1 Samuel 15:23). 

God’s word says, if we are willing and obedient, we shall have the best of the land (Isaiah 1:19). When Adam and Eve disobeyed God in the garden, they were sent out of their palace into suffering. And this is the trouble disobedience brought into the life of men. When a man disobeys God, he has been maneuvered to the side of the enemy to be against God. So God has to let him be where he has chosen. 

Friend, always choose to obey God. Now begin to do what He has been asking you to do. Then you’ve chosen to be on the side of God. Disobedience will always lead to struggling and frustration. This is exactly what happened to the life of Saul. Choose obedience, and you will keep growing even in the face of your enemy. 

Prayer: Lord, grant me grace to always obey you.

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
