     | 13,624 views

    Many times we do God’s will so long as we see the sense of it and agree with it, yet we feel free to change it around a little to suit our lives ignoring His commands.

    A Poll years ago said people are impressively religious on the surface, and the poll went on to reveal that 3 out of 4 people surveyed “do not connect religion with their judgements of right and wrong. Obedience to God is a problem, but it’s not new to our age People have always ...read more

    Joshua – A Portrait Of Obedience

     | 4,442 views

    If we had to give this sermon a title in the Forbes magazine it would probably go something like: ‘From Obscurity to Fame - How one man did it alone and became a success.’ But if we study the life of Joshua, we soon find that his secret to success was obedience to God’s instructions.

    Joshua – A Portrait of Obedience Pastor Paddick Van Zyl 21-10-2020 Sermon Outline Scripture Reference: Book of Joshua Chapters 1 through 24.

    When Paul had the vision to go to Macedonia he had to choose to do what was good or what was better.

    Choosing between a good decision and a bad decision is usually pretty simple. It’s not always easy, but It’s usually simple. The choice is usually clear. Good. Bad. But what about when you think you are making a good decision and you’re asked to do something different? Not something bad, ...read more

    Joseph’s Obedience Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,250 views

    Joseph is the unsung hero of Christ's early life. Through obedience, he impacted Mary, he impacted Jesus, he impacted the other children, and I think he impacted Jesus’ entire ministry.

    Sometimes there's words that we just don't like. Sometimes it's because of the way they sound. Some sound weird or sometimes they conjure up something kind of gross. One word that I don't like is the word ‘maggot.’ Really, if you think of maggots, is anything pleasant ever really ...read more

    Obedience and faith are essential to our Christian lives and witness before others. There is great benefit in following the Lord, and as we do, we have the potential to make an impact on the lives of others.

    The Obedience of Obed-edom 2 Samuel 6: 10-12 Our text today records an event that transpired while David sought to move the ark of God back to Jerusalem, and place it within the Tabernacle.

    This is the fifth message in a series on the life of Moses and shows that being God's man is never easy. This message examines how God calls us to choose the road of obedience even when it is the most difficult way.

    Most of us will accept the idea that God has a plan for our lives. However, we often struggle with the notion that God could use us in a significant way to impact the Kingdom. Why do we have this struggle? Because we know what we are really like and we know our failures. Needless to say it takes a ...read more

    We have access to grace and eternal life with the Blessed Trinity precisely because of their obedience, and our imitation of them by the obedience of faith.

    Saturday of the 29th Week in Course 2023 Our Lord frequently prayed at night, perhaps because His fame spread so widely in a short time that people desperate for help surrounded Him every day (except perhaps the Sabbath).

    The Four Faces Of Obedience

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 17, 2023
     | 5,170 views

    Christianity is not just a set of beliefs. James said the demons believe and tremble, but their belief doesn't save them, because they don't OBEY God. Our faith should cause us to walk, stand, live, and obey.

    THE FOUR FACES OF OBEDIENCE Gen. 22:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There are times when even doing what is right seems like it will backfire on you. Old habits are hard to break. 2. One guy invariably left off the cap to the toothpaste and for years his wife had hounded him about it. Finally, ...read more

     | 2,251 views

    God's promise of a new beginning are not in a vacuum. It does not just take God to make it possible. Abraham had a part to play. In the same way, the new life and restoration that Jesus brings demand our participation. What then is our participation? THIS IS OBEDIENCE.

    THE LORD, OUR OBJECT OF OBEDIENT The one whose voice and command we are to obey is the LORD Himself. The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the One who commanded OUR Father Abraham (Gen. 12:1). In Matthew, it is Christ Jesus Christ. We must learn to obey the Holy Spirit who now works in ...read more
