Obedience Is Better Than Sacrifice: Surrendering to God’s Will
In today’s episode, we’re diving into the powerful biblical truth found in 1 Samuel 15:22, where Samuel tells King Saul, “To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.” Too often, we try to compensate for disobedience with good deeds, religious rituals, or personal sacrifices, but God desires complete obedience, not just outward actions.
True obedience means fully surrendering to God’s will, trusting His plans, and following His commands even when it’s difficult. When we obey, we show our love, faith, and devotion to God, aligning ourselves with His purpose and receiving His blessings. Disobedience, on the other hand, can lead to missed opportunities, spiritual consequences, and distance from God’s presence.
Join m as I discuss why obedience is greater than sacrifice, how to walk in daily obedience, and the rewards of following God’s commands. Whether you’re seeking Christian encouragement, biblical wisdom, or spiritual growth, this episode will inspire you to choose faith over fear, obedience over excuses, and surrender over self-will. Tune in now and learn how living in obedience can transform your walk with God!
As children of God, we are to live in total and complete obedience to the Lord no matter the cost. As the scripture says, obedience is better than sacrifice.
