Good morning people who don’t under-estimate the cost of disobedience

My greeting today doesn’t sound overly encouraging, but I feel it is vitally essential for some of you. I sense some people reading this are about to make some decisions, and if you listen to God today through BIY, you just might save yourself some heartache.

Jonah 1:3 NIV But Jonah ran away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord.

A little statement, but God spoke something big to me. Here it is:

It will always cost us if we disobey God and run away; there will be a price to pay.

Yes, there is a cost and a price to pay for following God and His commission for our lives, but there is a greater cost eternally if we don’t.

I feel right now that I must remind us all that we will pay a price in life. The question is: “Will it be because of obedience to God’s will or because of disobedience to God’s will?”

My heart is sad as I think about the many who are paying a big price because they have run away from God and His call. If this is you today, I have good news: You can turn back to Him today and receive grace and mercy.

May Father’s will be done in your life in Jesus’ Name.
