Today on the podcast, Andrea and Bethany talk about the outcome of disobedience. The show opens with Bethany sharing about a rough morning trying to make pancakes. Bethany failed to read the instructions and the outcome was a mess. Andrea reminds everyone that failing to read the instructions in the Bible always leads to a mess!
Often disobedience leads to issues of fear in our lives. Discussing the Old Testament story found in 1 Chronicles 13, Andrea and Bethany talk about specific things David and the Children of Israel did while moving the Ark of God and the terrible outcome that resulted from doing it the wrong way.
In 1 Chronicles 13, David put human standards, emotions, and desires to please people above the clear instructions found in God's Word. Here is a quick recap of what NOT to do in our walk's with God. (Listen to the show to hear all the details!)
1. Consult others before consulting God.
2. Look to the actions of others to determine our actions.
3. Think like "worldly" people.
4. Experience sensational worship instead of genuine worship.
5. Run from God instead of running to God.
Are you in a place where you are doing the wrong thing and as a result you are experiencing fear in your walk with God? If so, take heart! God is willing and able to forgive and redirect you.
1. Turn
2. Confess
3. Walk in obedience
4. Walk in faith as you crucify fear
