THINK BEFORE YOU DO


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: THINK BEFORE YOU DO , (OBEDIENT TO GOD'S WILL)

Text: Acts 5:14-29

How do you make decisions? Do you try to determine what will benefit you the most, or perhaps you strive to please or impress others? Maybe you let emotions take control or attempt to make a logical choice.

Wise men and women learn to obey God, and leave all the consequences to Him. There is nothing more important in life than following Jesus and trusting Him to care for your needs.

I. What does the Bible say about obeying God?

A. Biblical Example: When the apostles were told to stop preaching in Jesus’ name, they responded, “We must obey God rather than men” (Acts 5:29).

B. Sowing and Reaping: Galatians 6:7 says, “Whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.” Every action has an impact, for good or evil. Our decisions, and the choices of others, determine the quality of our lives.

C. Disobedient Biblical Characters:
The Bible says, “Be sure your sin will find you out” (Num. 32:23).
Imagine how different the stories in Scripture would be if mankind knew what disobeying God would cost them and thing before their action,

1. Adam and Eve would never have eaten the forbidden fruit. If they think in God's direction.

2. The nation of Israel would have chosen to fight for the Promised Land the first time around instead of wandering 40 years in the desert.

3. After seeing Bathsheba bathing, David would have turned away and walked back inside. If he think in God's direction.

4. Jonah would have willingly traveled to Ninevah to preach the Word of God. If he thinks in God's directions.

If you and me think in God direction yesterday parhabs will may not be where we are today.
Now before you go out think on God's direction for your life.

LET US PRAY
DEAR HEAVENLY FATHER MAKE YOUR WILL KNOW TO ME FOR MY GOOD AND TO YOUR GLORY IN JESUS NAME.
