Think on These Things Gerard Ruff

What are the thoughts that come to mind when you think of Obedience to God? Is it something that tends to make you feel restricted or that you're limited and meant to stay inside certain boundaries. Is it that God has rules that are hard to live up to and cause you feelings of frustration. More than anything Obedience means to follow and trust Gods instructions. Psalm 37:23-25 23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. This is encouragement which can help us to obey and delight in the orders that God has for our lives. One of the Greek terms for obedience conveys the idea of positioning oneself under someone by submitting to their authority and command. Another Greek word for obey in the New Testament means "to trust." ... Thus, biblical obedience to God means to hear, trust, submit and surrender to God and his Word. In this book, you'll find the benefits of obeying God more each day.
