Uncommon Obedience

Obedience to God is a fundamental ingredient to receiving an uncommon answer to prayer. In today’s culture, obedience to God is often seen as dependent upon conditions, but God’s expectation has not changed. As believers, we need to prioritize obedience to God not only as we seek Him for a miracle, but also in day-to-day living. Some believe they can live however they want and still receive extraordinary answers to prayer, while others hesitate to obey what God is speaking to them because it is counterculture—it doesn’t sound “normal”—and they are afraid of being embarrassed.

One of the most basic and important questions a believer must ask oneself is, "Am I living in obedience to God?" If the answer is anything but yes, this is the first thing that needs to be rectified—not only to hear from God clearly, but to obtain the answer they long for. Just as one of the quickest ways to get an answer from God is to withhold nothing and surrender everything, one of the ways to expedite your miracle is to remove every obstacle that is between you and God. You must be prepared to unquestionably obey whatever He tells you to do. Many times, we are our own worst enemy when it comes to receiving an uncommon answer because we are living in willful disobedience.

Just as God is not vague about listening (or much else), there is no ambiguity about obedience. The Word of God tells us that if we are willing and obedient, we will eat the good of the land (Isaiah 1:19). Everyone on the planet wants to have good things in their lives, but we often fail to connect the dots about how our obedience to God impacts those blessings.

The formula is: God says this + you do it = blessing in your life. While it is not always that simple, many times it is.
