Obedience Activates
His Power

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

“Whatever He says to
you, do it.”

(John 2:5, NASB)

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
One time, Jesus made mud and
put it on a blind man’s eyes. He told him to go wash it off in the pool of
Siloam. Jesus could have just as easily healed the blind man on the spot. He
could have opened his eyes right then and there and sent him on his way. But
obedience activates God’s power. The blind man could have wiped the mud off
with his own hands and thought, “I’m not going to do that. That doesn’t make
sense. That’s going to be a waste of time.” He could have thought, “I’m
blind. I have these disadvantages. I can’t make it down to the pool.” But
instead of making excuses, instead of talking himself out of it, he decided
to just do it. He went to the pool and washed it off. Immediately, he could
see.
When you obey, dreams come to
pass. When you obey, health is restored. When you obey, problems turn around.
I wonder how many miracles we would see if we would simply do what we know
we’re supposed to do. Are you talking yourself out of something because it’s
not practical, it doesn’t make sense? Quit putting it off and just do it. If
you’ll have bold obedience, you’ll activate His power and see God’s favor in
a new way!
