Obedience vs. Disobedience: When You Do Your Part but Others Don’t


Listen Later

What do you do when you obey God—but the people around you don’t? In this timely and truth-filled episode, I’m unpacking what it means to walk in obedience when others choose disobedience. I share real stories from my own life where I did what God asked of me, yet things didn’t turn out as expected because others didn’t respond the way they should have.

Through biblical examples—from Elijah and King Ahab to Paul and the early churches—I explore how God still honors your faithfulness even when others fall short. You'll also hear how Jonah, Jesus, and others navigated this tension and what it means for us today.

This episode is for the faithful servant who's felt overlooked, discouraged, or delayed because someone else didn’t do their part. It’s a reminder that your obedience still matters, and someone’s destiny might be waiting on your "yes." Stay encouraged and trust that God sees, God knows, and God rewards.
