When we consider the story of God’s call upon Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac, we usually don’t think of Abraham’s obedience as an act of worship, but true worship and obedience to God’s calling are tied together.
Topic: obedience
Living the Christian life often requires us to obey the calling of the LORD, even under difficult circumstances. Although we might believe we are not qualified or able to serve God’s Kingdom in the ways He has led us, we rest assured that God knows what He is doing, and it is He who empowers us by His Spirit to accomplish the works He has ordained for us since before the beginning of creation. Often when we obey God in faith, He will bless us. Sometimes though He does not. But His leading for us is always for our own eternal wellbeing and the benefit of those whom God has called us to serve.
