Obedience > Sacrifice

from The Encounter · host Redeemed LA

Just as our parents appreciate obedience so does our Father in heaven. Obedience is greater than sacrifice, because it is the greatest sacrifice. To leave our will and do what the Father says means to die to ourselves. Although we may not understand in the moment why we have to put our head down, say amen, and just obey; later on we realize it was the right and best thing to do. We need to constantly remind ourselves that God already knows the future and that His plans for us are to prosper us, give us hope, and a future. God sees the whole movie while we just see small snippets at a time. Allow God to take control even if you don’t quite understand.
