Are you willing to obey God, even when it hurts?In this powerful message from Deliverance Church Ngong Road, we explore the profound call to "indeed obedience" the kind of faith that requires personal sacrifice, discomfort, and what the speaker calls "bleeding." True obedience is not always comfortable; it may feel like a loss, require you to surrender control, or mean walking away from something you treasure.Key Biblical Insights:The Foundation of Obedience: The sermon is built on the promise in Exodus 19:5 that if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people.The Cost of "Indeed Obedience": Discover why following God’s command can feel like a great loss [07:05], whether it’s giving up a cherished item, sacrificing a long-awaited plan, or walking away from a relationship [11:53].Learning from the Faithful: The message uses powerful examples, including Noah building the ark despite scorn [26:46] and Abraham being asked to surrender the very thing God had promised him—his son Isaac [42:35].The Reward: Understand that enduring the pain of obedience is never in vain. The reward is becoming God's special treasure and unlocking the blessings promised in Deuteronomy 28 [55:35].Don't let attachments to earthly things take the place of God in your life. It’s time to yield, surrender, and choose God above all else, trusting that His grace is sufficient to carry you through the pain [23:40].Thank you for watching this video.Reach out to us via email: [email protected]: / dcngongrd X: https://x.com/dcngongrdInstagram: / dcngongrd Listen to our podcasts on the following platforms:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6J2bg9y...Apple Podcasts: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d...Google Podcasts: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=...God bless you.Timestamps:[00:00:00] Introduction: The Difference Between Singing "Trust and Obey" and Living It Out.[00:01:12] Main Text: Exodus 19:5 — The Condition to Become God's Special Treasure.[00:05:36] Obedience is Often Inconvenient, Uncomfortable, and Painful.[00:06:57] When Obedience Feels Like Loss (Giving Up Treasures or Plans).[00:13:45] Obedience May Require You to Walk Away or Stay Quiet.[00:18:29] Personal Testimony: The Cost of Committing to a Three-Day Dry Fast.[00:24:28] Learning to Let Go of Control and Trust God Completely.[00:25:30] Biblical Example: Noah's Blind Faith and Enduring Mockery.[00:29:55] Biblical Example: Job's Righteousness and the Ultimate Test of Surrender.[00:34:30] Biblical Example: Daniel's Friends Choosing Not to Defile Themselves.[00:39:26] Pruning: Why God Takes Away (Prunes) So You Can Bear More Fruit (John 15:2).[00:40:45] Biblical Example: Abraham's Two Major Tests of Obedience.[00:48:54] The Reward and Blessings of Enduring the Pain of Obedience.[00:49:07] Call to Prayer: Surrendering Everything to God.[00:55:19] Closing Blessing: Reading from Deuteronomy 28.
