People are quick to say that they want God to bless them. They are quick to ask God to come right now. They want Him to show up right now and do what they are asking "Him" to do. The first question in all of our lives before we ask God for anything should be, are we doing what He has asked us to do?
We have to understand the importance of obedience. We need to realize that obedience is a prerequisite to receiving God's continual blessings. We are quick to get in prayer and take our requests to God and we need to be just as quick in obeying God. We need to remember that our obedience unlocks the door to God's blessings.
Don't just be the person who runs to God and asks of God, be the person who is quick to obey God. Obey God even when it hurts. Obey Him even when you don't understand all the reasons why you are going through what you are going through. Obey God, no matter what situation you find yourself in, in life. Obey God.
