To obey is better than sacrifice is the statement made here by YAH. In short, being obedient is always better than to sin and repent later. Saul in chapter 15 of 1 Samuel was given direct orders from the Most High to destroy not only King Agag but the entirety of the Amalek’s, instead choosing to spare the King and the best of the livestock for their own use (1 Sam 15:7-9).
This teaching moment is important for us today as well. For when the Lord gives us direct instructions, which can be to distance ourselves from a job, friends, or loved ones at times due to them hindering our spiritual growth. Not to leave the door cracked but to close it completely. We never want to only partly obey YAH as it is His will we are bringing to this world and not our own (Matthew 6:9).
Why is obedience such a big deal in the eyes of the Lord? This is due to Him wanting us to honor His authority, trusting Him with our lives and living totally by Faith in Jesus Christ. I pray we fully trust him today and not have to repent for disobedience tomorrow, Shalom…
