Reasons come and go. Priorities determine which reasons stay intact.

But the Word of The LORD takes the pre-eminence when you hear Him calling you.

You have had reasons for not following through when He has been speaking to you.

It may be because of unbelief, or the world’s distractions, or the heart of a person developing such complacency that he has lost his sensitivity to the voice of The LORD. It could develop into the sin of omission.

Wake up now; put on strength, for The Word of The LORD is near to you. It is even upon your lips.

You have been observed every moment by The Spirit of The LORD. There is nothing hidden from His sight. But He still knows the thoughts He has for you, thoughts of peace, not of evil, to give to you a future and hope.

Obedience is not only an opportunity, but also a gift He has given you for His Word and His intent to be manifest in your life.

It is the grand expression of your love for His presence. It is your worship to Him Who has called you by name.

Therefore, present your body as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which will be your worship, and be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you can prove what is the good, and acceptable, and perfect Will of God.
