When you hear the word “obedience,” do you think about blessings or burdens? Oftentimes, we think that to obey God means we will have to sacrifice—that it will somehow detract from our lives. But the truth is that obedience to God brings blessings and a fruitful life of joy and peace. 

In this message, Dr. Stanley talks about the benefits of following the Lord. God wants to show us His love, power, and grace. But we must first be willing to trust His guiding hand. Don't spend your life wondering what God would have done if you would have obeyed Him. Learn to follow His directions and experience the blessings of walking in His will.

Jesus said that if we loved Him, we would keep His commandments (John 14:15). He didn't say we would go to church, read the Bible, or do good deeds. We would obey Him. Our obedience is a direct reflection of our love for God. In this message, Dr. Stanley encourages us not to take Christ's sacrifice on the cross for granted. Instead, we ought to commit to obeying Him at every opportunity.

Dr. Charles Stanley

September 25, 1932 – April 18, 2023
