Being disobedient to the commands of God is the fastest and easiest way to self-destruct your life. The demonic spiritual forces residing on this earth have a purpose for your life. You may be totally unaware of Satan’s influences in your life, but believe me, he and his followers are aware of you and your potential. Spiritual warfare may be rarely spoken in your group of friends. However, it is a reality that takes place everyday of our life. You are fighting a battle (Ephesians 6:12)! Who you represent is the question you must ask yourself.
Each day, reading your Bible to understand God’s purpose for humanity is a great start; however, obeying God is the ultimate key to living His will. In reading and following the Bible, you are not complying with Satan’s plan for you or adversely affecting the life of your children, family, friends, co-workers, etc. You will be one less person not fulfilling their potential. God’s plan is for every man to receive salvation (1 Timothy 2:3-4). We have all been selected to receive this gift. There’s not a chosen selected few who will inherit His kingdom. If this be the case, there’s no hope in life. You live, die, and spend eternity without your creator, God. This makes no sense. God made a way for you to experience His will through Jesus Christ.
During the days of Christ, religious leaders fought against Jesus Christ eventually crucifying Him for being the son of God. The Spirit of God didn’t live within them, but a religious spirit, and they were unable to recognize God's salvation. The Bible states that those who had solid relationships with God rejoiced at the birth of Christ (Luke 2:25-32). They were not chosen to know that this child was the world’s Savior, but knew because of their time spent with and faith in God. The same principle applies today. As the saying goes, ‘Know God, Know Peace! No God, No Peace!’
So if you claim a relationship with God without accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and actively living for God, you are lying to yourself and others. As the religious leaders, you are making a fool of yourself! If you didn’t know about God’s plan for salvation, you are ignorant no more. Make a choice to accept, serve, and obey Him. If you did know about God’s plan for humanity and are not ‘walking it out’, you have chosen a very emotionally, spiritually painful and miserable life! If it hasn't happened already; the cursing of disobedience will manifest in your life. God will not be mocked; you will reap, what you sow (Galatians 6:7). Whether you believe it or not, His spiritual laws will not be denied. I say these words in complete, God-fearing love. Don’t take my word alone, but read the Bible. The Old Testament and New Testament are full of life morals for the obedient and disobedient.
Before Christ, God called a man, Abram, to fulfill His will. Based on Abram’s faith in God’s promise, he and his descendants were chosen as God’s people. These people were not always obedient to God’s way of life and constantly turned away . Therefore, God informed his people of His law’s effect on their lives, encouraging them to choose the blessing through obedience. If they choose to disobey, but eventually repented, the blessing would return. According to Galatians 3:29, the promise of the blessing still exists today through Jesus Christ. God has made a way for you through accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. If you want to experience the blessing of God, accept His plan and began obeying Him and watch your days transform into a life of peace and prosperity. He promises.
Deuteronomy 30:2-6 (NIV)
…When you and your children return to the LORD your God and obey him with all your heart and with all your soul according to everything I command you today, then the LORD your God will restore your fortunes and have compassion on you and gather you again… Even if you have been banished to the most distant land under the heavens, from there the LORD your God will gather you and bring you back… He will make you more prosperous… The LORD your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, so that you may love him with all your heart and with all your soul, and live.
