One of the most valuable qualities God always desires to see in a man is his ability to obey instruction. It is often a difficult thing for men to obey what God is saying. This is due to the fact that self-will is still struggling with the will of God in us. Young people in this generation rather want to obey the views of their friends than of God. “Thy will be done, not my will be done.” We all need to learn to submit our will to His will. His will is the best, but since it is not visible to our mind, we assume that ours is better (Isaiah 48:17-18).

Jesus, having used the ship of Peter to preach, wants to reward him. So the reward came in the form of an instruction. Peter argued like some of us, but he obeyed nevertheless, and the dividend was great.

Friend, let us stop arguing God's instructions. Naaman would have missed his miracle if not for the little maid in his house (2 Kings 5:10-15). Great rewards are hidden in our obedience to God. His ways and His thoughts are far from ours (Isaiah 55:9). Jesus calls obedience wisdom (Matthew 7:24). Let us therefore be wise to always obey Him. Whatever He tells us to do will always produce great results sooner or later (John 2:5, Isaiah 48:17).

Prayer: Lord, grant me the grace for obedience.

“IF ONLY YOU WILL OBEY THEN YOU WILL SEE HIS GLORY”

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.

MASTER’S MINAS

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.

WAYS ON WATER Exodus 14:10-22 Devotional:- “So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.” (v. 22) NKJV      The enemy's trick in the lives of so many people today is to make them believe that they have come to their crossroads and that the road has ended. So many always agree with this deceptive thought, which leads to their frustrations. The enemy makes them look at situations around them as evidence of his words. So, many people easily agree with the devil and become victims of his deceit.
