We Want to Worship, But Will We Obey? Throughout the Old Testament the Israelites had difficulty practicing obedience to the LORD. They made sacrifices of burnt offerings on the altars of the temple, but they also failed to honor God through their obedience to Him. Let us look to David’s words of wisdom in Psalm 51 on how we should remedy this problem in today’s time.

WATCH: I Can’t See Him, But I Know that He’s Moving We must desire to be free from blindness. The movement of God is often heard before it's seen. Know that He’s close, because even when you can’t see Him, you can feel His presence. Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God (Matthew 5:8). A pure heart and diligent call can be your demonstration of a sincere faith. • Hearing God will allow us to see His movement in our life • His movement got your attention and His movements will make a difference • Don’t be embarrassed, and don’t miss your moment. Others are getting what they need and so should you. Don’t be embarrassed, and don’t miss this moment. Let your heart and call be pure, and don’t be troubled by those who are offended by your call. The Lord will open your eyes and give you vision. Remove your coat and come to Jesus; don’t be embarrassed, and don’t miss God’s movement in your life. There is salvation in acknowledgment of our blindness. The Lord can and wants to deal with spiritual blindness as well (John 9:35-41). You cried out because you needed Him • Remember His words Luke 18:1-8
Exodus 15:22-27
WATCH: From Bitter to Better in the Process of Healing Don’t let it consume you - the Lord is preparing you for a new place and, no, you cannot take bitterness with you! In life people will often become hurt and broken due to circumstances & situations that they may be facing - such as bad relationships, heartbreak, and disappointment (Psalm 147:1-6). The Lord wants to mend you from the brokenness. He has seen your tears and understands your pain.
Don’t bound or restrict yourself because of bitterness. The pain leads you to purpose, and if you choose better instead of bitterness, your walk will be forever found in freedom. Don’t be afraid to cross. God is leading to a place where bitterness can’t hinder you any longer. Daniel 3:19-30 NLV
WATCH: Have Courage, and Just Keep Standing Stand because... It won’t consume you. Just keep standing. Choose faith over fear, and don’t be afraid of your furnace. No matter how hot it gets, don’t bow, and don’t bend. Even if it gets you tied up, just keep standing (Daniel 3:19-30 NLV).
The Lord will climb into the furnace with you. Don’t be afraid, even if it gets hotter, just keep standing. The Lord will set you free from the bondage that wished to restrict you. He will guide your feet to freedom and you will walk in victory. Trust Him because your steps have been ordered (Psalm 37:18-19 & 37:23-25). Genesis 18:8-15
