#EaglesDevotional - TOTAL OBEDIENCE

“Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing”  (Genesis 12:1-2)

Instructions from God are always very clear, direct and unwavering. God makes it so clear that you are either disobeying or obeying His instructions. There is no middle ground, it is either you are in the will of God or you are out of the will of God.
Matthew 6:24 says “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other…” Can any man say he is out of a building when he yet stays inside the building? God is giving clear direction and instructions to every one of us today, but the truth is we sometimes chose to ignore the words of God and act like He never said a word. God is telling you today; stop that habit, seek His face more often and stop the hypocrisy. Hearken to the voice of God.

God said to Abraham “…Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee…” If you want your name to be recorded as great, then you must act as Abraham did when God gave him this instruction.
The commission to Abraham then is the same to you today; ‘Leave all behind or Lose it all’ Abraham ran out of his past and entered his future. Like Abraham, leave and forget about the disappointments and failures of your past and press forward in obedience to the instructions of God. You will arrive at your promise.

FURTHER READING:Genesis 12: 1-2
PRAYER/CONFESSION:Father, give me the will and strength to obey your instructions completely. I surrender totally to your Lordship
WORDS OF WISDOM:If you don’t leave all behind, you lose all.
