Did You Know Obedience Begins With You Making A Decision To Obey?

Are you doing what God is telling you to do or are your procrastinating based on what you think others should be doing.    Remember ... God's plan is specific for your life.   It is not dependent on another persons obedience.   Yes there are divine connections ... but the ultimate goal that God has for your life is salvation.    He wants to bless you as you honor Him.   We honor God through our obedience to His word.    Obedience is not an outward display but an inward action.   Obedience starts internally and is manifested externally.    The word obedence means to comply with and be submissive to authority.    Obedience begins with you making a decision to obey.    If you never decide in your mind you are going to obey ... it will never be displayed through your actions.     Obedience is a matter of choice.    Will your choice be God and His plan for your life.   

Take time to meditate on God's word today and make up your mind to serve Him.   To be  willing and to be obedient ... so that YOU can eat the good of the land. 

Joshua 24:15

King James Version (KJV)
15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

Isiah 1:19

King James Version (KJV)
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land
