OBEDIENCE
Trust and obey is the only way to a successful life. Jesus seeks our best good. He knows what we need and when we need it. Give your heart to Jesus and He will never disappoint you.

07/17 Psalm 119:64-65
O LORD, the earth is full of your unfailing love; teach me your principles. 65 You have done many good things for me, LORD, just as you promised.
ACTIVE
The Lord is active in our life. He is seeking our best good. Surrender your heart and your time to Jesus and get to know Him. Read His Word and let it take root in your heart. Jesus is the difference in a life well lived. We come and go and Jesus takes us with Him into eternity when we leave this earth.
07/16 Psalm 119:61-63
Evil people try to drag me into sin, but I am firmly anchored to your law. 62 At midnight I rise to thank you for your just laws. 63 Anyone who fears you is my friend — anyone who obeys your commandments.
OBEDIENCE
Obedience is the mark of a faithful servant. We want to be faithful servants therefore we will obey Him. Obedience is not logic it is surrender. Christ lays out what I am to do and how I should do it. It is important for me to understand that His wisdom isn’t for us to debate rather it is for us to obey. Trust the Lord and Obey Him.
07/15 Psalm 119:59-60
I pondered the direction of my life, and I turned to follow your statutes. 60 I will hurry, without lingering, to obey your commands.
HURRY
Hurry to repent. Hurry to obey. Be quick to listen and slow to speak. Jesus is Lord and we are His servants. Bend your knee and obey the Lord.
07/14 Psalm 119:56-58
This is my happy way of life: obeying your commandments. 57 LORD, you are mine! I promise to obey your words! 58 With all my heart I want your blessings. Be merciful just as you promised.
MINE
Jesus is mine. He walks with me and talks with me. I belong to the Lord and He belongs to me. The key in walking with Jesus is obedience. If we do not obey we are walking off from the Lord by ourself. Trust and obey for that is the only way.
07/13 Psalm 119:55
I reflect at night on who you are, O LORD, and I obey your law because of this.
OBEY
The Lord calls us to OBEY Him. We cannot say we don’t know what to do because the right thing to do is in our heart. We call Him Savior and He is but for us to call Him Savior there must be a desire in our heart to OBEY Him. Today read His Word, listen for His voice and do what Jesus says for you to do.
07/12 Luke 6:17-19
When they came down the slopes of the mountain, the disciples stood with Jesus on a large, level area, surrounded by many of his followers and by the crowds. There were people from all over Judea and from Jerusalem and from as far north as the seacoasts of Tyre and Sidon. 18 They had come to hear him and to be healed, and Jesus cast out many evil spirits. 19 Everyone was trying to touch him, because healing power went out from him, and they were all cured.
NEED
We need Jesus. We need Him to heal our life. We need Him to give us eternal life. We need Jesus every moment of every day. We need Jesus.
07/11 Luke 6:12-16
One day soon afterward Jesus went to a mountain to pray, and he prayed to God all night. 13 At daybreak he called together all of his disciples and chose twelve of them to be apostles. Here are their names: 14 Simon (he also called him Peter), Andrew (Peter’s brother), James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, 15 Matthew, Thomas, James (son of Alphaeus), Simon (the Zealot), 16 Judas (son of James), Judas Iscariot (who later betrayed him).
KNOWLEDGE
Jesus doesn’t make mistakes. He knew Judas Iscariot from the beginning. Christ knows you. Are you in His family or are you an outsider? You choose.
07/10 Luke 6:6-11
On another Sabbath day, a man with a deformed right hand was in the synagogue while Jesus was teaching. 7 The teachers of religious law and the Pharisees watched closely to see whether Jesus would heal the man on the Sabbath, because they were eager to find some legal charge to bring against him. 8 But Jesus knew their thoughts. He said to the man with the deformed hand, “Come and stand here where everyone can see.” So the man came forward. 9 Then Jesus said to his critics, “I have a question for you. Is it legal to do good deeds on the Sabbath, or is it a day for doing harm? Is this a day to save life or to destroy it?” 10 He looked around at them one by one and then said to the man, “Reach out your hand.” The man reached out his hand, and it became normal again! 11 At this, the enemies of Jesus were wild with rage and began to discuss what to do with him.
HATE
Hate is evil. We never have enough knowledge or understanding to critique God and yet these religious leaders are doing that seeking to save their future. When you go against God you have no future. Jesus came seeking the Lost. He came to give them life. Who are you seeking?
07/9 Luke 6:1-5
One Sabbath day as Jesus was walking through some grain fields, his disciples broke off heads of wheat, rubbed off the husks in their hands, and ate the grains. 2 But some Pharisees said, “You shouldn’t be doing that! It’s against the law to work by harvesting grain on the Sabbath.” 3 Jesus replied, “Haven’t you ever read in the Scriptures what King David did when he and his companions were hungry? 4 He went into the house of God, ate the special bread reserved for the priests alone, and then gave some to his friends. That was breaking the law, too.” 5 And Jesus added, “I, the Son of Man, am master even of the Sabbath.”
JESUS
Jesus is God’s everything. He created us, He births us into the Kingdom, He raises us and He sustains us. Religion loves only itself. Christ died for you and Jesus loves you. Follow Him.
