Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:10-23
.. "Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice.
- 1 Samuel 15:22
Obedience is one of the vital points of following Christ. To be obedient means to be willing enough to sacrifice. That's why obedience is better than sacrifice. Sacrifice isn't essential without the heart, without obeying what's inside. God is not after our sacrifice/offering how big, wonderful or expensive it is. He's after our hearts on the purpose why we do it.
Obeying God isn't an easy path because the devil will always find its way to devour us. But His grace is always there. Kung nasa point ka ng sacrifice and obeying, choose to obey. Don't sacrifice to the things that aren't eternal, don't compromise God for temporary possessions. It's better to obey because He knows what's best.
