Life
is subject to instructions which God wants us to obey; though He gives us free
WILL either to obey or not to obey. Our actions towards these instructions will
either result to blessing or curse or outright abortion of destiny.
Obedience
is a key to accomplishment. Obedience is a link to great success in life.
Disobedience delays promises of God to mankind; sometimes terminates a glorious
destiny. Each phase of life accompanies with divine instructions which God
wants mankind to strictly adhere with. Our choices will definitely determine
what will happen to us now and in the future.
God
instructed Abraham to get out of his country, from his family and from his
father’s house, to a land He will show him. Note He did not instruct him to go
with Lot, his cousin. Gen 12:1-4. Despite his disobedience, God blessed both
Abraham and Lot in livestock, silver and gold. But God’s promises for Abraham
are beyond what he had then. Gen 13:1-3.
Chain
of events created an avenue for Abraham to have a second chance to adhere with
what God told him before he departed Haran. The herdsmen of his livestock
strived with Lot’s herdsmen. The separation of Lot from Abraham led to his doom
because he was not in God’s agenda for Abraham. God established His initial
covenant with Abraham when Lot departed from him. Gen 13:14-16. Obedience
is better than sacrifice. God wants us to obey His commandments in order to
enjoy His blessing. Deuteronomy 7:11-15.
