The Joy of Obedience

March 3, 2022 · Leave a Comment

The latest podcast episode, The Joy of Obedience will give you supernatural perspective when it comes to obeying God. You might not think that joy and obedience go hand in hand, but they do. Tune in as I welcome special guest, Sherika Chew of Well Ministries. This teaching gives revelation on obedience that pleases God which is the key to living your best life. 

History Tell Us

Throughout the Bible, God could not be any clearer on this point: He blesses for obedience and curses for disobedience.

Deuteronomy 11:26-28 encapsulate this principle: “See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse— the blessing if you obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today; the curse if you disobey the commands of the Lord your God and turn from them.”

Everyone wants to be blessed. But not as many want to obey. Even fewer understand what kind of obedience God expects.

Obedience that Pleases God

Obedience that pleases God requires full surrender, no matter the cost. It’s the “whatever you want Lord, I’m yours” life. Not the common mindset which is, as long as I keep the 10 commandments, then I’m good.

God oftentimes will require us to give up or walk away from things and people that are not necessarily bad or sinful because his goal is to remove anything that keeps us from a right relationship with him. He wants us to live in our true purpose.

Lies we Believe

The tired lie that satan, our enemy loves to tell us is that “obedience will make you miserable.” He has been spreading this lie since the beginning of time when Adam took of the forbidden fruit. So many people still believe this lie today. We need to captivate our thoughts and believe the truth.

The Joy of Obedience

The truth is that true obedience brings us supernatural peace, joy, purpose and protection. The world can’t give it and the world can’t take it away. Like I always say, Favor Follows Radical Obedience. We are now living examples of what it looks like to live this way.

Favor Follows Radical Obedience.”

If the devil can’t get rid of you in your mother If the devil can’t get rid of you in your mother’s womb then he will attack your mind, your life to try and defeat you. ⚠️
You must be on guard, know his tactics and defeat him with the authority God has given you as a believer. Believe truth over lies friends.
God doesn’t make mistakes.
You are chosen.
Your life has great purpose.
You are loved.

“The devil was a murderer from the beginning, and does not uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him.

Whenever he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.” 
-John 8:44

When the devil tries to attack us with doubt & dis When the devil tries to attack us with doubt & discouragement, we must use our God given authority to silence the father of lies.
SPEAK BACK. 🗣 
His #1 goal is to get you to give up on your purpose, your promises, your dreams, your relationships and ultimately your life.
He’ll make you think you have mental illness, anxiety, depression & confusion. He’ll even have you blame others but in reality he is the peace robber. He is the root cause of the attacks on your mind.
He knows that if he can control your thoughts, then he can control your life.
He’s never original. All he can do is counterfeit. He’s been up to his same ol’ tricks since day one in the garden. 🐍
But there’s hope, friends. The more you captivate your thoughts, stop entertaining yourself with the things of this world, saturate yourself in God’s word, allow him access to your heart, let him heal you of your past and believe the truth of who he says you are, the more you’ll live FREE.
The enemy will constantly try to sneak in and lie when he knows we’re vulnerable. But when he realizes that we cannot be moved, then he loses his power over us and backs off. 🔥 Remember, you are not defeated. You are more than a conqueror in Christ. 💙
“I have given you the authority to resist the devil and he will flee from you. Do not fear. Be strong & Courageous.” -James 4:7, Joshua 1:9
Side note: not everything is the devils fault. But if you are living surrendered to God then attacks on your mind to try and cancel your purpose, need to be silenced.

It’s easy to tell someone you love them but acti It’s easy to tell someone you love them but actions speaking louder than words, is when you’re selfless. Saying yes when you want to say no and with a good attitude is the best proof.
Jesus is the best example of this. He proved his true love for us when he sacrificed on the cross and he did it willingly.
Be a person who sacrifices for others. Live selfless in a selfish world. Be there when it counts by acting like Jesus.💙
