Psalm 81 Obedience Really is the Key


Psalm 81:14
God Speaking:
“If my people would but listen to Me,
If Israel would but follow My ways;
How quickly would I subdue their enemies
And turn My hand against their foes”

Sometimes I ask God for wisdom-
He gives it-
I obey-

Life is good.

Sometimes I ask God for wisdom-
He gives it-
I disagree with it-
I do what I want-

Strife comes.

Sometimes I don’t ask at all-
I figure………. I got this one.

Strife continues.

Sometimes I don’t ask
Because I am afraid-
I just know He’s gonna tell me something-
Something I really, really, really………
Am not gonna want to do.

Strife turns to misery.

But then again……
Sometimes I ask God for wisdom-
He gives it-
I obey and…………

Life is good.

I really am getting better………

James 1:22
Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves.
Do what it says.

Father
Thank You for Your patience with me-
Thank You for Your promise of
The good things that come from
Faithful Obedience.

Amen
