I am leading my Sunday Bible class through the incredible study by the three Deeper Still ladies (Priscilla Shirer, Beth Moore and Kay Arthur) entitled Anointed, Transformed, Redeemed. In week two, Priscilla leads us to consider David and his obedience toward God, even in times when obedience did not make sense. She encourages us to do something that was EYE-OPENING to me. I wanted to share it with in hope that it would put the discipline of obedience to God in perspective.
First, find a piece of paper and a pen. Then make a list—I love lists, maybe you do too. However, this list may not be one that gives us warm fuzzies. Ok, here is what goes on the list.
- List the things that God has asked you to do THAT YOU HAVE NOT DONE YET.
- List the reason(s) why you have procrastinated in obeying what God has asked you to do.
Think about it. Think about it. Think about it.
Really? Are your reasons for procrastinating from doing what God asks sounding as good as when they were just rumbling around in your head? Really? Probably not.
Time to be obedient to what God is asking us (that’s me and you) to you.
