When Christ Gives A Command

When Christ gives a command, Mark 14, verse 13.

Though he sent two of his disciples and told them, go into the city.

The two disciples were given very detailed instructions to go to a certain town and look

for a particular man performing a specific task.

He would have a large room, furnished, and ready to observe the Passover.

These instructions might have seemed unusual, had it not been their Lord speaking.

But the two disciples obeyed and found everything just as Jesus had said.

Jesus knew exactly what they would find, and so he guided them specifically.

One of the most memorable and precious times the disciples would spend with their teacher

hinged on the obedience of these two.

Obedience to Christ commands always brings fulfillment.

When the Lord gives you instructions, obey immediately.

Don't wait until you have figured it all out, and everything makes perfect sense to you.

Because God will lead you to do things that you will not fully understand until after

you have done them.

He does not usually reveal all the details of his will when he first speaks to you.

Instead, he tells you enough so you can implement what he has said.

But he withholds enough information so that you must continue to rely upon his guidance.

Your response will affect what God does next in your life.

Your obedience may affect how others around you experience Christ as well.

If there is any directive God has given you that you have not obeyed, obey that word

immediately, and watch God's perfect plan unfold in your life.
