Obedience is key to your Christian walk for it unlocks God's power in your life. The bible speaks of some men who were asked by God to make sacrifices for His sake and other men were asked to sell all they had and follow Him. Would you be able to put something down if God asked you to? Would you be able to walk away from your life selling all your possessions and preach the gospel from place to place if God asked you to? Those examples may be severe but the point is God does speak to us and does ask things of us, but we often ignore Him because we don't want to give up something or give in to someone, even if He asks that we do. This is where we disobey and it causes murky waters otherwise avoided. Some of us will repeat this mistake again and again and then wonder why our lives are not where we want them to be. God is ready to speak to us. He left His Word behind if only we would take the time to read what He has to say. Have you ever looked at the index of your bible? Every emotion, every example of life is in there under topical index with scriptures along side to guide us through God's word on that particular subject. We don't have to walk through this life alone. We have the Lord God Almighty by our side each day, every step of the way. But we must ask the Lord to speak to us and we must promise that we will listen and obey.
Leviticus 19:37
