Shalom,

Today I want to sharre again from The Spoken Word Church website devotional! 
Obedience is doing whatever God instructs you to do. Each instruction is linked to a miracle in your future. Each act of obedience shortens the distance to any miracle you are pursuing.
Remember God only feels obligated to the obedient. The obedient always receive answers to their prayers.
"And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight." (1 John 3:22)
This is SUCH an important lesson to learn! We have SO very many wonderful blessings under our new and better Covenant, but there is always a part for US to play! For many of them, there is only the matter of BELIEVING with our whole heart (spirit/soul combination). Our spirit ALWAYS believes God's Word, but our souls are where the choices are made. If we are not continually renewing our minds with the Word of God, then we will not even be able to believe! THEN we must RECEIVE! How do we do that? We act as though we already have it when we pray, THEN we WILL receive! THAT is FAITH! The SUBSTANCE of what we are promised! In other situations, the promises are attached to an act of obedience! Tithing is one example! WHEN we 'tithe' our 10% by presenting it to JESUS our High Priest, then bring it to a Scriptural storehouse in worship, we can fully expect the windows of Heaven open for us and every other promise carried out on our behalf! EXPECTATION is the key word here! Let's be active DOERS of this lesson and see our GOD fulfill His promises! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "Say The Word":


Shalom in Him!
