Obedience is God’s way of saving you stress

Dear reader is this post something that resonates with you?

Obedience is God’s way of saving you stress. You will understand this when you begin to reap the consequences of disobedience. Ask those who have been in that situation what they wish they could have done differently. You will realize that God actually saw ahead and gave you instructions to avert the mishap, but you thought He was punishing you. Genesis 12:1 The Lord said to Abram: “Go out from…

#spongebob #ohbrotherthisguystinks #kings #lessonsfromthebible #antiimperial #samuelspeech Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who were asking him for a king. He said, "This is what the king who will reign over you will do: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots and horses, and they will run in front of his chariots. Some he will assign to be commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and others to plow his ground and reap his harvest, and still others to make weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. He will take your daughters to be perfumers and cooks and bakers. He will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to his attendants. He will take a tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and attendants. Your menservants and maidservants and the best of your cattle and donkeys he will take for his own use. He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his slaves. When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, and the Lord will not answer you in that day. " But the people refused to listen to Samuel. "No!" they said. "We want a king over us. Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles." 1 Samuel 8:10-20

#iaOpqBr #honor #lessonsfromtheBible #seethepositive READ TO THE END (women especially) At his age, married with a wife, Abraham followed his father to another country. In fact, the Bible says “Terah took...” his family. In today’s world, we can imagine that possibly, 1. Terah held the purse strings; 2. Abraham was a dutiful and obedient son. Whatever it was, Abraham didn’t really come into his own until his father died, BUT he had caught God’s attention. Soon after, “...the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee” Abraham had enough practice being obedient to his father so when he heard God, he promptly obeyed Him. #Lesson - what one does gets them noticed #note - to the wife who wonders why her husband seems excessively dutiful, read about Abraham and #pray for your husband that God will see and reward him. #Biblestudy #Bibleverse #Biblelearning #wisdom #learningfromscripture #faith #blessed #motivation #readtheBible #Biblestories https://www.instagram.com/p/B1Sne05lyKK/?igshid=1lbslg8vl98ka

God knows how to stop me on my tracks even before I begin to think up ways to do some things that my human nature would have desperately and truly wanted to do. Sometimes, you hear stuff about you and just want to take revenge on the tale bearers and insensitive children masquerading as adults, but God knows how to speak to me, asking me to let him handle it for me. There have been times like that when I let Him handle it for me and it turned out to be the beat handling those people ever received. Better than what I would have done. Everyday, I get soaked up in God's love and He in turn teaches me how to love other human beings who may not DESERVE my love and forgiveness, BUT sitting on God's shoulder, He shows me ahead and all he intends to do for me and how he'd bless me for letting Him handle it. "Do not let evil defeat you, instead conquer evil with good". That's the message from the Lord. #Forgiveness #Humans #Love #Life #LessonsFromTheBible

#iaOpqBr #reputation precedes #honor OR vice versa😉 Ruth was the “Moabitess” who returned with her MiL and showed a new dimension of #love for a woman from a different culture and land, and worshipped a different - the only true God. That reputation sealed her honor from God, planting her firmly in the lineage of Jesus Christ. She gave birth to Obed, “the father of Jesse, the father of David” and we know that “from David until the exile to Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the exile in Babylon to Christ are fourteen generations.” [Extra Extra! Read Matthew 1 explains the genealogy]. What does your reputation say of you? Does it say you have substance and character in the way you speak, act, relate? #Biblestudy #Bibleverses #Bible #wisdom #faith #inspiration #bibleverse #God #lessonsfromtheBible #Biblelessons #knowledge #ievolve #ilearn #learning #buildingcharacter #gainingsubstance #addingsubstance https://www.instagram.com/p/B2T7EQDlQ9w/?igshid=1lg6k2etlk1n6
