1 Samuel 13-15, Proverbs 26:17-28
What God said to me – To walk with Me in obedience is not to guess what you think I would want and to do it or to choose how you would honor Me – it is to seek My face, listen to My voice, and to do what I command you to do. Don’t do what you think is best and then try to justify it to Me. To do so is to reject My word. When you reject My word, then you reject Me. Commit yourself to walk with Me no matter what the cost.
Learning how true this is! Learning that when I say, “They will be done.” I’m also saying “My will be undone.” Ouch.
