1 Samuel 15:22 - Sacrifice Not Required Pt. 2 “To obey is better than sacrifice,” (1 Samuel 15:22 NIV)
by Chris
God has really been dealing with me about obedience over sacrifice.
It was confirmed at church today.
The greatest gift you can give God is your obedience to His will and instruction in your life. The windows of blessings are opened by your obedience.
Today I wanted to share my prayer with you and invite you to recite it if you are willing to follow. Here it is…
“Lord I get it.
No longer will I put your instruction on the back burner in my life. I realize that all that I have gone through has been a humbling experience to help me understand the importance of obedience.
God, I believe you.
I release the need to understand why you instruct me to take certain steps in life. I realize it’s not required in order to take action.
Every time I am obedient to your instruction an unseen door opens right before me.
Lord I have been trusting in my might, strength, and intelligence to prosper in life. Today I am mandating myself to become obedient. I ask that you keep any provision or blessing away from me until I have been fully obedient to your instruction.
The wealth, health, and prosperity I desire is available to me through my obedience to you.
Thank you for your patience and love towards me in my disobedience, and I receive the abundant blessing of Christ in my life today because…
I AM obedient.
In Jesus name I pray. Amen.” |
