Listen and Obey


Listen Later

Feeling stuck, discouraged, or unsure of your next step? God’s light is enough—just enough to guide your next move.

In this episode, Peggy Teague shows how listening and obeying God—Shema—brings strength, hope, and restoration, even when life feels shaky.

Through the story of Jenny and a study of Haggai 2, discover how God’s presence sustains you, His glory is ahead, and small, faithful steps matter more than big, overwhelming leaps. Learn to trust God with the next step, not the whole path, and embrace His power, love, and sound mind in your daily walk.

Key Takeaways

  • Faithfulness in small steps matters. God’s light—a lamp, not a floodlight—is enough to guide your next move.
  • Shema: Listen and obey. Strength flows from hearing God and following His instructions.
  • Trust during shaking seasons. God shakes what can be shaken to reveal what cannot be shaken.
  • The latter glory will be greater. What seems small or discouraging now is preparing a future full of His glory.
  • Walk in godly attributes. God gives power, love, and a sound mind—not fear—to navigate challenges.

Key Scriptures

  • Haggai 2
  • 1 John 4:4
  • 1 Timothy 1:7
