To Obey is Better Than Sacrifice....
Had a dream two days ago. In it, I was having to choose. I was upset - the choice to "obey God," or choose to follow my own choice. I woke up - asking questions. I was confused, not sure...I knew the decision was crucial and I wanted to "obey the Lord" but both choices seemed that they could be "God's Way." I knew my answer lay in God's Word. I was then reminded of past events. Events where God had already proved to me that "to obey Him (His Word) is better than sacrifice." So I wake up this morning having a dream and again, the person in my dream was a reminder of an event where the choice "to obey is better than sacrifice" was really cemented in my life...a life pivoting moment teaching the concept of draw the line and do not cross it moment in my life. Again, confirmation of "it is better to obey than sacrifice." I have been making an attempt to solidly meet with the Lord first thing in the morning. Read His Word, take time to hear from Him. I was directed to Ezekial 3 and OH MY!!! As I began I was asking "Lord, is this me?" Again, I was reminded about the "ink bag." I believe it is in Chapter 8, (it was Chapter 9) but by Chapter 35, I put down my Bible and was looking for breakfast. Pondering just what the Lord was trying to say to me and asking. A video came across my path and I felt prompted to watch the video. The video happened to be Melissa Redpill. I had thought my husband had said she was a 'schill' but he did not remember saying that to me when I asked him to read this word, judge it and should I share it...see I do confer to my husband... and did not remember watching her. However, that aside, she had some good points in her video about control and manipulation. I disagree with her stance on Israel. God is not done with Israel. The church has not replaced Israel. It's another topic for another day, but I felt like the Lord was saying, "Write." It's always scary as the penalty in the Old Testament was death to a false prophet, and none of us (I'm not a prophet) None of us want to be put to death for trying to give a message we feel the Lord is putting on our hearts to say. Here goes...
