Need God's Help?

Some time back I was driving in my car with my friend, Kelly. We were talking about obediece and he told me what the Lord had taught him. "Acts of obedience set you up for your deliverance and the deliverance of others."

His statement fit into our conversation then. Today, however, I have a deeper understanding of it - it seems more real.

As you walk in obedience you exercise faith - you demonstrate faith. And faith is what God requires! "Without faith it is impossible to please God."

You can try your best to take care of all your problems by yourself. But Scripture states that "without Him I [you] can do nothing." You will exert energy, but most probably, not adequatly help yourself [meet the need]. So, try walking and doing the things He gives you to do - obedience. This will please Him and it will put you in a position for God to work on yor behalf. Isn't that what you want? Whatever God does NEVER fails!

Daily steps of obedience position you for God to fight your battles!

  1. Amen Brother. Sounds like a good one for "The Ozone." This is my quest, to please God. I fail every day but as long as I keep getting up. . .
