Obedience seems to be almost a dirty word today in society but we clearly see the need for some form of it when we look around the world today. In so many parts of the world chaos reigns because of a dearth of absolutes, community standards or personal convictions about such things. Obedience is not about slavishly following rules, although there are times when rules are essential to keep us safe, it is about a depth of understanding of the principles by which we should live our lives and then working out our personal walk from there.

Whenever we go through difficult situations, what may be going on outside might be stressful but God is interested in what is going on inside our hearts. We need to have the right spirit inside of us.

As a believer, our identity is firstly in Christ rather than our ethnicity nor is it in our culture nor where we come from.

Nobody likes waiting. However as believers, what we do during a period of waiting determines where we go. Waiting time for a believer should not be wasted time.

When we learn to respond to the voice of God correctly, miracles will happen and we will see breakthrough in our lives. We have to respond correctly when God challenges us to raise our faith and trust in Him and move out of our comfort.

When you become a believer, you join into the family of God. We must make it a priority to nurture genuine relationships with those in our family, especially the local church family we have been planted into.

God speaks to us and as believers we need to know the voice of God. We need to also know what we need to do when receive a word from God.

What does it mean to be a disciple? When people see us, what do they see in us?
