The Secret of True Obedience

Beware! We live in a time when everyone wants a quick, easy, and simple fix for every problem -- a magic pill or special moment or simple task that will fix everything and make all right. This is true even among Christians and is especially true for the subject of obedience.

 Obedience to God doesn't come in a simple-one-size-fits-all formula. Three prayers, an extra gift to missions, and perfect Sunday School attendance does not make obeying God easier nor instantaneous.  

 Nevertheless, if there is a concise secret to obedience, Andrew Murray has state it best: 

"The secret of true obedience— let me say at once what I believe it to be—is the clear and close personal relationship to God. All our attempts after full obedience will be failures until we get access to His abiding fellowship. It is God’s holy presence, consciously abiding with us, that keeps us from disobeying Him.
The secret of a true obedience is the return to close and continual fellowship with God." (From Andrew Murray's book The School of Obedience)
