Instant obedience is the only kind of obedience there is, for delay obedience is disobedience. Each time God calls upon us to do something, He is offering to make a covenant with us. Our part is to obey, and then He will do his part to send a special blessing. I know we often postpone doing what we know to do, and then later do it as well as we can. Certainly this is better than not doing it at all. Postpone obedience can never bring us the full blessing God intended or what it would have brought had we obeyed at the earliest possible Moment. What a pity it is how we rob ourselves as well as God and others.

Lord, May I be a servant of immediate obedience. Convict me in such a way that when I tend to brush it off I need to repent and obey. In Jesus name, Amen!
