Verse: “And straightway He constrained His disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side…”
– Mark 6:45
Quote: “His purpose is for this minute, not for something in the future.”
As Christians, we think of obedience as the first step towards God’s will for our lives. What Chambers is reminding us this morning is that obedience is God’s will for our lives. “What we call the process, God calls the end.”
God knows where He wants you 15 years from now, but it is immediate obedience that He is interested in. He gives you visions and dreams, but wants you to work them out now in your day to day life. Stop right now and ask God to speak to you; your only goal in view should be immediate obedience to His leading.
