The Complete Devotional With Josh NormanSample

Obedience Better Than Sacrifice

Imagine someone who has made a significant mistake attempting to make amends by offering an extravagant gift. While the gesture is grand, what truly matters is their genuine apology and commitment to change their behavior. This scenario highlights the principle that God values our obedience more than any sacrifices we might offer. True repentance and obedience reflect a heart aligned with His will, demonstrating our sincere desire to follow Him faithfully.

Practical Application: Reflect on areas where you may be offering sacrifices instead of true obedience. Ask God to help you prioritize listening to and obeying His voice above all else.
