Faith Enables Us To Obey When Obedience

It Is Just As Important To Trust God As It Is To Obey Him. When We Disobey God We Defy His Authority And Despise His Holiness. But When We Fail To Trust God We Doubt His Sovereignty And Question His Goodness.

Truth Is We Must Plant And We Must Water If We Are To Make Progress With Our Children In Holiness But Only The Holy Spirit Can Change Our Children More And More Into The Likeness Of Jesus. Our Problem Is We Tend To Depend Upon Our Planting And Watering Rather Than The Lord.

In The Deceitfulness Of Our Hearts, We Sometimes Play With Temptation By Entertaining The Thought That We Can Always Confess And Later Ask Forgiveness. Such Thinking Is Exceedingly Dangerous. God’s Judgement Is Without Partiality. He Never Overlooks Our Sin. He Never Decides Not To Bother, Since The Sin Is Only A Small One. No, God Hates Sin Intensely Whenever And Wherever He Finds It.

Even Our Tears Of Repentance Need To Be Washed In The Blood Of The Lamb.

Evil Rulers Are Never Beyond The Bounds Of God's Sovereign Will
