Obeying His Voice

Scripture Deut 26:17 Today you have proclaimed the LORD to be your God, and that you will walk in His ways and keep His statutes, His commandments, and His judgments, and that you will obey His voice.

Observation: Today needs to be every day. A day can’t go by that I don’t proclaim the Lord to be my God. I need to stop taking that lightly just saying my Lord and my God. If that is true in my life than I must walk in His ways, keep His statutes, His commandments, honor His judgments and obey His voice. I can’t say one without doing the others or it makes me out to be a liar and a hypocrite.

Application: I always start my day in prayer giving God the glory, but not always do I follow through with what is expected of me. I need to stop listening to what I want and be obedient and do what God wants of me.. I need to be building treasures in heaven and stop getting things that mouths will destroy or rust away. I belong to God and not this world.

Prayer: Dear Lord I want to be obedient and I want to put you first all of the time, but I’m a lowly sinner and have a very hard time staying focused. Help me please earn the crowns you have set up before me so that when the time comes I can lay them at your feet.
