Pastor Michael Todd delivers a sermon on the importance of obeying God in a timely fashion

Pastor Michael Todd delivers a message on obedience as the “Cuffing Season” series comes to an end. This message put into perspective just how important it is to obey God when He says to, and not when we want to. If you have an assignment from God that you have neglected this message will get you back on track.

As always listen for yourself and see what stands out, below are a few notes.

Notes

1. Deliverance starts with a decision
2. There’s always an obligation after revelation

4. Overflow starts with obedience
5. Running The Clock: The arrogance to believe you will have the option to obey later
6. Game Clock Christian: Only obey for ovation
7. Grandfather Clock Christian: Your obedience is old
8. Cuckoo Clock Christian: Obeys the outlandish but ignores the obvious
9. Stop Clock Christian: You obey on your own time because you think you own time
10. Partial obedience is disobedience
11. Your obedience matters
12. Little obedience is better than big sacrifice
13. Disobedience is witchcraft, delayed obedience is idol worship
14. Obedience isn’t easy but it’s simple
15. Disobedience always means something dies
16. Obedience also means something dies
17. I obey because I cannot afford not to

Scriptures

“For it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.” (Philippians 2:13)

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. (James 1:2-4)

Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. ² With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet. Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? ⁴ Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.” When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened. ⁶ Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him. About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?” “Yes,” she said, “that is the price.” Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.” Acts 5:1-10

At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband. ¹¹ Great fear seized the whole church and all who heard about these events. (Acts 5:10-11)

*1 Samuel 15:15-23*
