Devotion

First and Final Response
 
Exodus 24:3;7b (NIV) Then Moses went down to the people and repeated all the instructions and regulations the Lord had given him. All the people answered with one voice, “We will do everything the LORD has commanded.” ... Again they all responded, “We will do everything the Lord has commanded. We will obey.”
 
There IS more peace, love, unity, growth, connection, praise, faith, worship, fellowship, hope, expectancy, miracles, divine order, abundant spiritual fruit, and power in the body of Jesus Christ. It occurs when we individually and corporately let our first and final response to the Biblical principles of scripture be, “Yes, we will obey,” and we follow through with devout commitment and action. We are not competing with a world that is destined to end. We are preparing for a Kingdom that will reign for eternity. God is responding to our obedience amid all of the chaos in the world. Do not be dismayed. Our ‘Yes’ and Yes, Lord’ are the first and final response the Lord expects from His children. He will pour out abundant blessings upon our lives.
