Obedience Brings Success

If you think obedience doesn't matter, well then don't come running to me when the sh@t hit's the fan and you begin to reap what you sow.

Let's just face it, it is better to obey then go a stray and if you need more proge, then let this little devotional sink in and open your eyes and ears.

God Bless.

Obedience Brings Success

by Joyce Meyer

Every Scripture is God-breathed (given by His inspiration) and profitable for instruction, for reproof and conviction of sin, for correction of error and discipline in obedience, [and] for training in righteousness (in holy living, in conformity to God’s will in thought, purpose, and action). — 2 Timothy 3:16

The Bible says that we will reap what we sow. The dividing line between success and failure is doing what God tells us to do. We pray for fruit in our lives, but we don’t always want to pray for roots. If we want our days to go right, we need to do whatever God tells us to do. If we don’t walk in obedience, then we can’t complain if we wind up in a mess. If we are lonely and God tells us to invite somebody over, but we decide it is too much trouble, then we will stay lonely. Obedience brings the fruit of the Spirit in your life. Dig deep into God’s Word before you walk away from blessings today.
