Pure Obedience: Step by Step

In Numbers 20, Moses and Aaron were given instructions by God because the children of Israel was thirsty. Apostle Tee had preached recently about Moses not following the full instructions of God, and how that caused him not to enter the Promise land, and I was studying this scripture, and I felt God was bringing it up again.

God told Moses to speak to the rock, before the children, and water will flow, and Aaron also was with Moses. Instead of Moses speaking to the rock, he struck the rock twice. Due to this, Moses and Aaron had sinned and disobeyed the Lord. God never told him to strike the rock.

Due to their actions, Aaron died because he didn’t try to stop or correct Moses, and Moses eventually died and they both wouldn’t make it to the land of milk and honey. We cannot try to follow God instructions, but add our own twist or spin to it because of how we feel, and we have to be obedient to God step by step and do what HE says!

For example, God could tell you to give someone $20, and he could tell you a specific way to do it, but that person made you mad and you gave them the $20, but you waited a few days. This is disobedience! We could be missing out on our promise land from God, because we let our flesh cause us to act out of God’s way, and then we want to say I was obedient to God. But no you weren't because you didn’t follow God step by step.

Jesus help us! I love Jesus and I am thankful for this blog post today because this is a huge eye opener for me! We have yo make sure we are walking in pure obedience and it will help us to become hot and holy for Christ like Chief Apostle preached on the broadcast the other week!
