Obedience!

An amazing friend sent this to me...... and God spoke MIGHTILY!
Thank you!
I love you.

It is amazing what God does out of our obedience. That is all he wants out of me and others.....obedience. Yet it is the hardest thing to do. Surrender.........that word can make you so sick just thinking of it.

righteous

In order to be obedient we have to surrender all. Sacrificing ourselves, rendering ourselves to God, ripping away our wants and desires, enduring the pain of removing self, it is a necessity, it makes us dependent on him. He makes us and example so we can be righteous in him. Once we have surrendered then we can be obedient. And that word I like even less, yes I said that.

Ouch,

choice,
everlasting.

It will hurt, and it will be wonderful and bitter at the same time, it will be an excursion that you will never forget, dying to self, must be immediate(God does not want us to waiver, but to be obedient immediately), Once we are obedient we have a release and receive enjoyment because of our obedience. God has given us all a need to make him Lord over our lives and to be obedient to him, He wants it to be our choice and this is everlasting. Meaning that when we don't obey we will know that we should have and God has given us this inner thing to want to be obedient, just some of us has a stronger will than others.
