Obey

 

Neil Marten, a member of the British Parliament, was once giving a group of his constituents a guided tour of the Houses of Parliament. During the course of the visit, the group happened to meet Lord Hailsham, then lord chancellor, wearing all the regalia of his office. Hailsham recognized Marten among the group and cried, "Neil!" Not daring to question or disobey the "command," the entire band of visitors promptly fell to their knees! 

 

When in doubt…obey!

 

“Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” James 1:22

“Jesus replied, ‘Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching.'” John 14:23

“The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.” 1 John 2:17

“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.” Matthew 7:24

 

Obedience is not an option

obedience is not half way obedience is not when it feels good

And obedience is best exemplified when you don’t want to

 

Here and there in these dusty stacks, one can find an occasional recording

by the great blues master Jimmy Reed. A share-cropper's son, Reed brought

the throbbing harmonica-and-guitar-driven black rhythm-and-blues of the

Mississippi Delta into the popular rock-and-roll mainstream.

 

The Holy spirit is continually whispering in our ears the directions for life… are you listening? Are you obeying? 

 

 

The number one sign of a disciple is OBEDIENCE.  You can measure a persons depth of Discipleship by his depth of obedience.  

You can’t measure it by church attendance

You can’t measure it by bible memorization

You can’t measure it by how many commandments you keep

You can’t measure it by how many ministries you serve in

You can’t measure it by giving

You can’t measure it by your knowledge of theology

 

You measure it by obedience to Gods word and his Holy Spirit. 

 

When you seek to hear and know the voice of God and to obey it… you see it in a persons life between their spouse, boss, kids, pastor etc… Obedience to the Holy Spirit bleeds into every area of our life.
