Obedience

Yesterday was a good day for me. But a huge part of my flesh was defeated, and that didn't feel good at all. It made me want to cry all day long. I had to obey God and correct a few people who were sinning and speaking falsehood in His name. I had to wait and not speak until He told me what to say, and then I had to stay steadfast in faith. And I had to stop worrying about hurting their feelings, because God must come first. Speak the Truth in Love, but not by comprising.

And I was blessed for it. So blessed! And I felt Him telling me "You have obeyed My voice and My will, rejoice in that!" So I did. And I was greatly blessed and felt so loved. Finally, things are making sense to me again. I was strengthened to keep my eyes on Jesus all day long, and I had a overwhelming moment of being completely filled with the Holy Spirit. There is nothing like it!

Then today He was telling me about obedience, and how important it is to keep the faith that He has given me. So I'm going to keep obeying, keep surrendering.

He is telling me to keep sharing all that He has done for me. And keep sharing my struggles, because it will help others. There is no purpose for hiding my testimonies, because they reveal God's Glory and greatness. :) And though I don't know who will benefit from it or how, that's all in His hands. It feels really good to know that. It removes all my worries.

He is also telling me to really start taking my Bible studies more seriously. And He is going to keep teaching me everything I need to know. He keeps bringing me these little glimpses of what He wants to teach me, and I am just loving every moment of it.

Jesus, I love You! I seek to live for You and Your Glory! Keep doing what You're doing, because it's simply amazing! In Your Name, Amen!
