This daily devotional teaches sound scriptural truths, such as
that there is only one kind of obedience: instant.

"In the selfsame day, as God had said unto him."
-Genesis 17:23

That is the day to follow the example of Abraham,
the selfsame day as God gives instruction.
Procrastination robs God,
and robs others and ourselves of God's blessing.

How do we receive God's instruction?

We cannot go through life strong and fresh on constant express trains with ten minutes for lunch: we must have quiet hours, secret places of the Most High, times of waiting upon the Lord, when we renew our strength and learn to mount up on wings as eagles, and then come back to run and not be weary, and to walk and not faint.

The best thing about this stillness is, that it gives God a chance to work. "He that is entered into His rest hath ceased from his own works, even as God did from His; and when we cease from our thoughts, God's thoughts come into us; when we get still from our restless activity, "God worketh in us, both to will and to do of His good pleasure," and we have but to work it out.
-unknown author

And so, God's instruction is for you if you are willing to...

..."work out your own salvation with fear and trembling."
-Philippians 2:12 KJV

..."being confident of this,
that he who began a good work in you
will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."
-Philippians 1:6

"And God is able to make all grace abound to you,
so that in all things at all times, having all that you need,
you will abound in every good work."
-2 Corinthians 9:8

"And we know that God causes all things
to work together for good
to those who love God,
to those who are called according to His purpose."
-Romans 8:28

"All the works of God are redemptive."
-Pastor Edward Wood

the solid Rock on whom alone we stand.
