Spirit of Obediece

'Prayer puts into those who sincerely pray a spirit of obedience, for the spirit of disobedience is not of God and belongs not to God's praying hosts.'

Quoted from- 'THE NECESSITY OF PRAYER  By E.M. BOUNDS' (Excerpt 55)

Gal 5:7  Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
Gal 5:8  This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you

When we don't obey the truth we are not honoring God, we are not God's.

Read the following...

Rom 2:7  To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
Rom 2:8  But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
Rom 2:9  Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
Rom 2:10  But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile

When we DO NOT OBEY the truth we are obeying UNRIGHTEOUSNESS!

Tribulation and anguish waits for those who do evil!

Those who work good will have glory, honor, and peace.

How can we say our obedience doesn't matter? How?

'Prayer puts into those who sincerely pray a spirit of obedience, for the spirit of disobedience is not of God and belongs not to God's praying hosts.'

A spirit of obedience is something we truly need! If we are SINCERELY praying then we will receive a spirit of obedience!  If we aren't praying in sincerity we cannot expect to have a spirit of obedience, a desire to obey rather than disobey.  We must PRAY, we must obey.

By the grace of God may we obey, and pray to obey.

Why can we ever imagine God would have us disobey, ever?

Please, Lord, help us!

In YOUR LOVE!
