There is a freedom that destroys freedom, but there is another freedom that never quits….. God’s ways can never be wrong.
When situations in your life are not desired, you need to come back to God in obedience. This year, change your mindset and be determined to obey God.
Obedience to the voice of God would not be convenient if God did not give you His grace.
How to hear the Voice of God
1. Through the Word of God.
2. Through your Pastors
3. Through messages
What is Obedience?
- To align your life towards God
- Compliance with God’s instruction
- Saying YES to God’s instruction, irrespective of whether it’s convenient or not
- Totally denying yourself of your thoughts and surrendering to God’s instructions
- A process of hearing and doing all that God says
- The ability for you to allow God’s will be done in your life
Benefits of obeying God’s voice
1. You will eat the fruits of the land. Isaiah 1:19
2. Strangers shall submit themselves to you. 2 Samuel 22:25
3. It triggers God’s mercy, preservation, favour, and preservation over your life. Deuteronomy 4:30
4. It brings honour to your life before people. Numbers 37:20.
5. It leads you to the best plan for your life
6. It brings healing, closeness, passion, and love for God
7. It brings peace of mind
8. It facilitates divine direction
Obey God this year and reap the benefits… disobey God this year and face the consequences.
