What If Obedience Isn't Supposed to Feel Good?
from Freedom Fellowship Church with Ren Schuffman · host Freedom Fellowship Church with Ren Schuffman
Sermon by Pastor Ren Schuffman Discover the challenging truth about obedience to God and why it isn't always supposed to feel good. This powerful message explores the fundamental choice we all face: obeying sin or obeying God. Learn how the Israelites' experience with manna teaches us about daily dependence on God and why we can't live on yesterday's spiritual victories.Explore the relationship between understanding and obedience, and why waiting to understand God's plan before obeying Him isn't biblical faith. Faith is proven not by knowledge but by how quickly we obey even without comprehension.Understand the proper role of emotions in your spiritual journey. While feelings can enrich our encounters with God, they should be indicators, not instructors. Emotional maturity means choosing God's perspective over our own feelings, especially in difficult situations.Discover what God's will truly is for your life according to Scripture. Beyond career choices or life paths, God desires for you to rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with Him.Learn why obedience often feels like an internal war and how, like physical training, spiritual discipline becomes easier as your heart transforms. When you delight in the Lord, He changes your desires to align with His, making obedience less of a struggle and more of a joy.Keywords: Christian obedience, spiritual growth, faith without understanding, emotional maturity, God's will, heart transformation, spiritual discipline, daily dependence on God, biblical obedience, Christian discipleship, spiritual warfare, Christian emotions, faith journey, spiritual maturity, biblical teaching, Christian living, spiritual transformation, Christian discipline, following God, Christian faithhttps://www.ffc.church (Our Website) https://www.facebook.com/freedomfellowshipokc (Follow us on Facebook) Were you blessed by this message?
