Do you struggle with obedience?
Is it difficult surrendering to God?
I invite you into a faithfulness mindset shift, instead of focusing on obedience. Here's why:
Faithfulness is living from the inside-out, where your heart is involved, and it’s transformative. Obedience doesn’t mean God has our heart and won’t transform us. Obedience trains us to follow God’s Word, but we can obey but not love. Often, obedience can be of performance and a punishment-based relationship vs. God’s loving kindness and faithfulness.
Our greatest command is to love God with all that we are and to love others as ourself.
God wants our heart. We are to be conformed into the image of Christ. He is called Faithful and True! (Revelation 19:11)
Jesus said people would know that we are His disciples by our love.(John 13:35)
Faithfulness is a fruit of the Spirit. (Galatians 5:22-23)
When I surrender to Love, I will take steps of obedience and faith. Love is my motive to be faithful to God, and then practice it.
In the Old Covenant obedience was crucial because it determined whether God's people received blessing or curses. (1 Samuel 15:22)
In the New Covenant, faithfulness comes to the forefront. Hebrews 11 is known as the “Hall of Faith” not obedience.
As New Covenant Believers of Jesus Christ, we are already blessed based upon Jesus’ obedience and performance. God has already blessed us Ephesians 1
2 Peter 1:2-4
In this episode, I share a live discussion I had with my friend, Chris Cree of New CREEations Ministries. We discuss a Kingdom Mindset about the difference between faithfulness and obedience and why faithfulness is so important.
