DISOBEDIENCE




Disobedience is any choice contrary to what God Has instructed.

I heard of the testimony of a certain woman whom the Lord was asking to do something. This woman refused totally and would not heed God’s instruction. She said her excuse was always “my children ooo.” She said her disobedience made her lose two of her four children.

Jonah was instructed by God to go to Nineveh, but he ran to Joppa instead.  Bible says he fled from the Lord. He was like Adam that went to hide from God after disobeying Him.

Disobedient people are never free. Disobedience is a very grave and deadly offence. Disobedience caused the fall of man. Disobedience got Adam and Eve kicked out of the Garden of Eden.

Disobedience brings hardship and curses. It takes away God’s promises for our lives. If you are fond of disobeying your parent, Prov 30:17 says if you despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it. Disobedience leaves in a state of destitution.

Disobedience to God provokes His anger. The story of Pharaoh, Nadab, Saul and even Israel shows clearly that God does not like disobedience. Isa 1:19 says If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land. In order words, if ye be unwilling and disobedient, you shall eat the bad of the land.

To obey most times is tight, but it is always right. To obey is the solution to disobedience. Rom 5: 19 says For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

Obedience is an act of faith; disobedience is the result of unbelief. Every heart that disobeys God and authority be replaced with obedient heart in Jesus Name. Amen!
