The hardest lesson for me to learn is obedience...
I was memorizing this verse in
Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Notice it says do his commandments, not say or memorize, but simply do! It means obedience- instant obedience. Many times I obey after long time wrestling with God, it's not instant. But God wants me to obey him instantly, that's what releases power.
What's the tree of life? I thought about it. Blessed also means happy. What's true happiness? The answer is found in proverbs-
it says, hope defer makes a heart sick, desire fulfilled is a tree of life.
If I would obey God, I will have my desires fulfilled and met.
God please please help me to want to obey you instantly. Let me be addicted to obedience, let me feel the joy of it. Please let me see what you see.
