Psalm 40:6
Sacrifice and offering you did not desire—
but my ears you have opened, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.
Words for the Day: Hear and Obey
God delights in your obedience. Naturally, it doesn’t do Him any good to speak to you if you aren’t going to listen and obey. For many years, folks want God to speak to them, but they want to pick and choose what to obey. They want to do what He says if they think it’s a good idea. If they don’t like what they are hearing, they act like it wasn’t from God.
Some of what God says will be exciting. Some things might not be so thrilling to hear. But that doesn’t mean what He tells you won’t work out for good if you will just do it His way. God does not require a higher sacrifice than obedience.
Take that and RUN with it!
