*Obedience is an act or instance of submitting to an authority.
It is compliance with the demands or requests of someone over us.
The general words for obedience in both Hebrew and Greek refer to hearing a superior authority*
* *
* *
*GOD’S WORD ON, OBEDIENCE*
From the six-year-old who leaves her game because her mother has called her in for supper to the business executive who pays his taxes on time, we all live in a web of relationships dependent upon obedience to authority.
Like a loving parent, God sets standards for our good and to protect us from evil and harm.
God desires obedience motivated not by fear but by love and trust.
/While we may or may not understand it, obedience actually frees us up to enjoy life as God intended, because it keeps us from becoming entangled or enslaved to those things that distract us and cause us heartache/.
Even though God’s command is sometimes difficult, or doesn’t make sense from our human perspective, obedience will always bring blessing, joy, and peace.
”The question could be ask”
*/IS OBEDIENCE TO GOD REALLY NECESSARY, SINCE WE ARE SAVED BY FAITH?/*
*Deuteronomy 10:12*…… And now, O Israel, what does the LORD your God ask of you but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
 
13 and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?
NIV
 
*Philippians 2:12*…..Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed — not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence — continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, NIV
/Obedience is putting into action God’s saving work in our lives/.
*Jeremiah 7:23*….
but I gave them this command: Obey me, and I will be your God and you will be my people.
Walk in all the ways I command you, that it may go well with you.
NIV
/Obedience to God is an essential element of a covenant relationship with him/.
*/Hebrews 11:8/*/…./
By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going./
NIV /
/Obedience is an act of faith/.
*Romans 1:5*…Through him and for his name's sake, we received grace and apostleship to call people from among all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith.
*Romans 6:17*….But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were entrusted.
NIV
 
/Putting our trust in God for salvation through Christ is equivalent to obeying his message of good news/.
/ /
*/Titus 1:16/*/…./They
claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him.
They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good./
NIV /
/If we are disobedient to God, our claim to know him is meaningless./
*Leviticus 9:5-6*… They took the things Moses commanded to the front of the Tent of Meeting, and the entire assembly came near and stood before the LORD.
Then Moses said, "This is what the LORD has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the LORD may appear to you."
NIV
*/OBEDIENCE SEEMS LIKE SUCH AN AUTHORITARIAN CONCEPT.
DOES GOD REALLY REQUIRE ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE?/*
Deuteronomy 6:1-25; 11:26-28; 28:1-68 . . .
Do what is right and good in the Lord’s sight, so all will go well with you.
These passages demonstrate clearly that God’s demand for obedience is based on his commitment to our well-being.
The entire chapter six of Deuteronomy gives a picture of what God is expecting from His people.
(Look if you will at the first fourteen verses of Deuteronomy chp twenty-eight at the blessings of God when obedience takes place, but verses 15ff takes about what happen when there is disobedience takes place).
READ from bible.
*Numbers 20:1-13* . . .
[God said to Moses,] “Because you did not trust me enough . . .
you will not lead them into the land.”
/Disobedience always brings negative consequences, even for a spiritual leader/.
Moses was able to see the land of Promise, but was not able to enter it because of his disobedience act against God.
Deuteronomy chapter three verses 26-28 gives an account of what God said to Moses about the Land of Promise.
*Ephesians 5:6* . . .
The terrible anger of God comes upon all those who disobey him.
Disobedience is sin and leads to separation from God.
*Philippians 2:5-13…… (8) *And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death — even death on a cross*!
NIV*
.
*Hebrews 5:7-9*
7 During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.
8 Although he was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered
 
9 and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him NIV Jesus is our model for obedience, even when obedience means suffering.
*/IN WHAT WAYS DOES GOD WANT US TO OBEY HIM?/*
 
Romans 13:1 . . .
Obey the government, for God is the one who put it there.
All governments have been placed in power by God.
Hebrews 13:17 . . .
Obey your spiritual leaders and do what they say.
God shows us what he wants us to do through human authorities.
This does not mean that we ought to neither follower the government nor spiritual leaders when what they are doing is contrary to God’s word.
Peter and John makes that clear in;
Acts 4:19-20… But Peter and John replied, "Judge for yourselves whether it is right in God's sight to obey you rather than God.
20 For we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard."
NIV
 *Psalms 84:11*
11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.
NIV
/Obeying God and ignoring evil advice bring lasting joy./
*Psalms 119:2* . . .
Happy are those who obey his decrees and search for him with all their hearts.
*Jeremiah 7:23* . . .
Obey me, and I will be your God. . . .
Only do as I say, and all will be well.
Obedience brings great rewards.
OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST
 
 
 
 
OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST.
*I.
His Outward Obedience*.
— At times the Gospels note Jesus' obedient response to the claims of human authority and custom, His subjection to His parents (Lk 4:16), His observance of religious ordinances (Lk 4:16), and His payment of tribute money (Mt 17:24).
But the chief emphasis is that His whole earthly career was worked out step by step in perfect obedience to God's plan for Him as Savior (cf.
Mt 3:15).
He lived under the constant constraint of fulfilling this career, which climaxed in His baptism in blood on the cross (Lk 24:26).
Knowing well from the start all that it involved (Mk 2:20), He set His face unflinchingly in the direction of its fulfillment (Lk 13:22).
His whole career is described as "obedience" in Php 2:6; Heb 5:8.
It is the fulfillment of the prophecy of Ps 40:7 (MT 8) (cf.
Heb 10:7).
*II.
His Inward Obedience*.
— Christ's obedience was not automatic.
He struggled greatly to overcome temptation from outside (cf.
Mk 1:13; Mt 16:23) and to subdue what in Himself required stern and wholehearted discipline to bring it fully into line with God's purpose.
He shrank from the agony involved in obedience (Mt 26:38).
