Obedience -What Now Lord

Why Must I Do What I Hear God Saying To Me?
Please allow me to explain…

Less than 12 months ago my life began a transformation, a new journey. At the time, I was unaware. But it did. And once it began I could not stop / change it. (Well, unless I stepped outside God’s will) Which I did over and over. And true to his word in spite of me, He kept me and did not allow me to sink.

I was hurt emotionally, battered and financially drained. But God. He never left. I strayed. Good thing for me I know my way back when I hear my Fathers voice. Jesus said: 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. (John 10:27 NKJV)Problem was I was hearing but it was faint. You see, I had to stop some things in order to clearly hear him calling to me. How do I know? Well, I no longer do the things of the world I loved to do. The cursing and clubs no longer appeal to me. (Listen)

But the most obvious reason is that I began to hear: Get up go to Church. Then, come here every Sunday. Next, I heard: Get to Sunday school. Then, come here every Sunday. Next, I heard you need to be at bible study on Thursday night.

Well, after my first bible study. I was troubled all night. I tossed and turn. God was calling for me and it grow stronger and louder. But I was still outside of his will and I was lost. I woke up saying Lord what do you want me to do? My soul was troubled. Then it happened, God began giving me the strength to say no to the things and people of the world that are not meant to go where he wants me to go. He began putting people in my path that sent me to the word to rediscover him for myself. Over and over, everywhere I turned I heard and saw “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” Matt 6:33

All I know is I have PEACE JOY LOVE and COMPASION.  

I am hungry for the knowledge. And I want to share the message of SALVATOION to others. So you see, I have to obey because the world does not love me. “Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.”  John 14:23

How do I know he loves me? Because Jesus died and rose again so that I can have eternal life. Who else would do that for me or you?
