  • How do you decide whether or not to obey God? Perhaps you don't believe your motives for being obedient make much of a difference; however, they do have an impact on your life, and indicate a great deal about you. Dr. Stanley asks you to search your heart about why you want to please God. He also teaches you how to keep your motives right before the Lord.

    Before listening to Dr. Charles Stanley's sermon on "Reasons to obey God" I recently had an epiphany, or perhaps it was the Holy Spirit telling me that I didn't have to deliberately sin against God. That it was simply a choice. Having a sinful nature is one thing, while being in rebellion against the Most High God is a choice. God help me to make the right choice.

    Prayer Focus: God, I ask You in Jesus’ name bless me with the desire, strength, wisdom, and spirit of obedience to obey You, Your Word, and Your will for my life. Transform and renew my mind. Let the mind that is in Christ Jesus be in me. So that I can and will walk in VICTORY as I hear and obey Your voice and Word. God let Your blessing overtake me as You have promised in Deuteronomy 28:2-13, because I obey You. God all that I have asked of You in this prayer, please do the same for the writer of this prayer and all those I love and care about. Holy Spirit help each of us to trust God and walk in obedience to God's voice and Word even when it is hard, or we don't want to. Amen, so be it by faith, and by faith it is so. Thank You Jesus. Amen.

    Praise the Lord. May the Lord return quickly. Amen. God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!

    The scripture says, “He goes before us and makes the crooked places straight.” That means what should be overwhelming is no problem at all. What looks complicated, you don’t see a solution, suddenly things will fall into place. You don’t have the connections, you don’t know the right people, but out of nowhere, someone steps in and shows you favor. You thought it was going to be a long, drawn-out process, but it turned out easier than it looked.

      Even if things are hard and drawn out, if you follow him, trust in him and obey him, he’ll give you the strength and the guidance necessary to get you through to the finish line nonetheless. But you have to do your part and that’s trusting in him, he can only help you as much as you’re willing to let him.
      If you’re finding it hard to trust in him, make more conditions to God, pray more to him to change your heart, change your desires from bad to good, give you bravery, etc.
      If you’re struggling, it’s not a reason to give in and give up, it’s even more of a reason to reach out to God

    Amen. ❤️🙏 Glory to God!🙌 Truly, obeying God is indeed challenging because man's desires are most of the time not aligned in His will but as we get to know Him deeper and able to establish a genuine relationship and fellowship with Him, we learn to obey Him. Not only because it's due and the right thing to do but because He deserves everything from us. After all, He alone knows what's best for us. We just can't fully understand the way He works because His thoughts and ways are far better and higher than us. That's why all we need is to obey, surrender, and trust because were mere humans and we're subject to Him. Hence apart from Him, we are nothing. As it is written, Trust in the Lord with all your heart, on your own intelligence rely not. In all your ways be mindful of Him and He will make straight your paths.
    It is even furthered, For my thoughts are not your thoughts nor are your ways My ways, says the Lord. As high as the heavens are above the earth so high are My ways above your ways, and My thoughts above your thoughts.

    Reasons to obey God
    ✓ We need to know our reason why we obey the Lord
    ✓ The great reason actually is love (It is not obligation, not guilt, not afraid of him)
    We can't disappoint God because he knows everything
    Reasons yoy obey God
    1. Reverence: we recognize who he is, we fear him, we have knowledge of him
    2. Gratitude: he saved us, giving us the salvation as pure gift
    3. Love: the great motive to obey God
    4. Trust him: the reason why we disobey him is because we don't trust him in that certain situation
    He promises us the best if we trust him
    5. Security: sins fragments our thinking, causes doubt, anxiety, fear, frustration, unwise decision
    He gives us a sense of calm assurance when we obey him

    “If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.
    11 For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.
    12 It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
    13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
    14 But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
    15 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
    16 In that I command thee this day to love the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the Lord thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
    17 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
    18 I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.
    19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
    20 That thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.”
