Daily Devotion (English) – 18.10.2023

 

Implicit obedience

 

"…Thus Noah did; according to all that God commanded him, so he did" - Genesis 6:22

 

A wealthy man advertised for a job. Many young people came after seeing the ad. They did the work he said for two days. Then grumbled and left one by one. What is my qualification? How skilled am I? They said “This job is not suitable for me and left.” But only one youth continued to do the work. The rich man said to take the gravel lying there and told him to dump it at little distance. The next day he asked him to come and put it where it was already. He told him to do it for a week. He also gave the boy a week's wages. He didn't expect the boy to come the next day. The boy came to work on time. He gave the young man a high job befitting his studies and skills, who faithfully obeyed his master's orders without questioning why.

 

A lack of obedience in a man's life is dangerous. Because of the increase of sin on earth, God wants to destroy the world and talks to a man of God named Noah. It will rain continuously. I instruct you to make an ark to protect yourself and your family from that destruction. Without asking any questions as why or how, Noah simply obeyed without adding or subtracting an inch as the Lord told him. His family was also saved from destruction. Next, God told Abraham to sacrifice his son, who was born at the age of 100, at Mount Moriah. Abraham obeyed God's word and took his son without even informing his wife. Observing this implicit obedience, the Lord makes him a blessing to the whole world.

 

Beloved! Are we obeying God in your personal lives? God is looking for a man who wants to do His will without question. When he obeys like that, he is capable of becoming a useful vessel for many. Do not forget that obedience is the highest step in life. Yes, like Noah and Abraham, we will obey without question. May we be blessed.
