Obedience Is Greater Than Sacrifice

Today I just feel like life is too crazy...I posted the prayer for my niece Louise and her husband robbing a bank! I just can not seem to wrap my head around this one and am amazed at the desperateness of people without God in their lives...

I continue to read prayer request and hear the pleas of people some who know God, some who want to know God and some who think they know God but truly only know OF Him...

The first group, who truly know God, knows that it is His will that matters..nothing else matters in life but bringing Him glory and honor in all we say and do...and this is a place of Joy no matter what seems to be in front of them...A place of Peace that passes all understanding not only to His child but for all to see...it is a place that is effortless and sure...it is Kingdom living right here on earth...a place where God speaks and we listen and obey...without understanding or even caring to understand...it is a place of acceptance with a joyful heart knowing that through your body and life God is receiving all the glory and honor...it is a place of sacrificial offerings of Praise and Worship knowing that the Victory has already been won and that His word was established long ago..It is a place of miracles...

It is a "definite" place, a place that His purpose and plan is what is placed in front of us, so we can, in obedience, choose to fulfill His purpose and His purpose alone. A place that we allow Him to shine in our lives...more of Him less of us... It is a guaranteed place of protection from evil spirits that are seeking to destroy us through their poisoned darts that confuse our minds and bring us into sin because of hopelessness and rebellion a place of disobedience that Satan uses to kill and brings death.

The bible speaks clearly of the end times and how the very elect will be deceived...IF we are not prepared...do you have oil in your lantern...When he comes back, are you ready and prepared for the groom? Satan is a liar and the father of lies...there are situations in all our lives...different stories, same kind of pain and confusion..Satan is a liar...God warns us of confusions and chaos in these end times...but the promise is greater...Greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world...

The second set of people who want to know HIm...continue to open your hearts and allow Him to lead you to a place of purpose...His purpose...His glory and His honor...Paul said he was content in all walks of life....rich, poor, bondage (jail) His worship and praise never ceased...He knew God and that he was only a vessel, a vessel for God to use..a soldier in the army of God...obedient and faithful to the commands that come from the Master...Abraham knew God would come through one way or the other with his son..he knew God could give him life and that no matter what... GOD knew what HE was doing...God had a purpose and plan...a purpose and plan for Abraham that gives us today an example of faith, Abrahams story shows us faith...a story still around to be read by us...what if Abraham hadn't obeyed God to bring his son as the living sacrifice...Abraham knew God...

Now the people who "think" they know him..but truly only know OF Him..and claim to love Him..love is an action word... Love "the feeling" which is all cute and stuff but "feeling" love doesn't save a marriage..

commitment and obedience to God's word is what saves a marriage, when we take a vow with our partner in the marriage ceremony no matter if it is before a minister or justice of the peace it is a promise a holy vow we take before God and man...when we speak the vow we automatically bring God into that marriage, and that vow is what we have to stand on in a marriage, the vow...through better or worse, sickness and health, richer or poorer and on and on...it is a vow we took before the Almighty God a promise to honor and cherish all the days of our lives..a vow that the angels witnessed and are looking for fulfillment in ....love can, and does get lost in the flesh through selfishness then sin . We spoke the same when we accepted Him into our hearts the day we were saved...to Honor and Obey His word no matter what...even to death...

Let us all not forget what the real purpose of this life is...it is to replace the fallen angels...the angels that were the worshipers of heaven...Satan believed because of this worship and praise that he somehow should receive it for his glory...that is still his desire for God's people to worship him in spirit and in lies....if we are not careful..Satans plans reach far and wide to destroy all he can...unconditional love for God will lead to the place that HIS blessings and promises are established in Truth...it truly is all about obedience...not letting sin rule...thank God for grace and mercy it keeps the door open for us to walk through...He stands at the door and knocks..if we open it up He will come in and take over...completely...we are to submit to His will and way no matter what we see or feel...Satan is a liar and the father of...

God bless and be safe in obedience to His divine will in Jesus name....

God loves all people equal... there is no one better than anyone else...love can be effortless when we "feel" it...but when it gets hidden behind life's problems and situations...that is where obedience kicks in and change can take place...it goes beyond feelings..it goes to unconditional love...the kind of love that saves us from us....a place that keeps us from sin...a place that God glories in and can work miracles in a place where HE reveals Himself for all to see...
