Most of us don’t like rules. We don’t like being told what to do or when to do it or even how to do it. We like to be independent and make our own decisions. Why? Because we tend to believe that we know what’s best.
But want to know a little secret? Oftentimes, we have NO IDEA what the best decision is. And we end up making mistake after mistake after mistake. That’s why God gives us truth and that’s why He convicts us to follow His word.
So today, we want to share some of our favorite bible verses on obedience. Check them out below!
- “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” James 1:22
- “Jesus replied, ‘Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching.'” John 14:23
- “The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.” 1 John 2:17
- “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.” Matthew 7:24
- “Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life, but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.” Proverbs 10:17

What do you want your tomorrow to look like?
Maybe you dream of becoming the president of a successful business. Maybe you dream of traveling the world. Maybe you even dream of working with underprivileged people and changing their lives.
We all have dreams and aspirations and goals for our lives. But not all of us are making wise decisions now that will contribute to those dreams and aspirations and goals.
One of the biggest ways to predict your future is to take a look at your peers. Who do you surround yourself with? Are you spending time with people who encourage you or dismiss you? Because whether we realize it or not, the voices that we listen to are the voices that affect us most.
Hebrews 12:1-3 says, “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.” God designed us to live in community and to be encouraged by the relationships we have. He meant for our family and friends to be witnesses in our lives, helping us run the race set out before us.
So dream big, and surround yourself with people who will never stop believing in you!

We all work hard.
Whether it’s running an office, taking care of a family, or coaching a team, we all spend our days working hard and trying to do things with excellence.
So when something good happens, it’s natural for us to see it as a result of our hard work. Maybe your team makes it to the championship, and you can’t help but think that it’s because of the new drills that you created and brought to the table. And so you get caught up in your skills and abilities, unable to see the bigger picture…unable to see God’s hand in the situation.
But James 1:17 says, “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” Not just some gifts. Not just most gifts. ALL gifts are from the Father. He is the one who has given us minds to think and dream, bodies to say and do. So in that way, every blessing is a result of God’s goodness, not our own work.
What are some of the good gifts God has given to you? We’d love for you to share them in a comment below.

There are many challenges that come with being a leader. One of those challenges is finding the middle ground between being too arrogant and too passive.
The Problem
Some leaders we know tend to lean toward arrogance. They become so confident and good at leading (or at least think they’re good at leading), that they begin to think too highly of themselves. This often causes them to become condescending in their attitude, short-tempered in their replies, and difficult to be around.
Other leaders we know tend to lead towards passivity. They work so hard to please the people they’re leading that they lose their morals and values. They stop leading with conviction and start leading with concern. They begin to put the opinions of others over the opinion of God.
The Solution
So how can we find the middle ground and avoid being arrogant or passive? With confidence from God. Confidently leading others begins with praying for them, investing in them, and doing everything we can to love them well.
The Next Step
We encourage you to take some time this week to pray for the people you’re leading. This is sure to be a great first step to becoming a confident leader who is honoring to God!

We all want respect. So how do we earn it? Well, here are 3 simple ways to earn respect every day…

Caring for others is the first step toward earning their respect. The more you make someone feel valued, the more they will value you and your opinion.
2. By Acting with Honor:
It’s no secret that each person is unique in their own way. So the sooner we honor others’ differences, the sooner they will come to respect us.
3. By Acting with Dignity:
No person is worth more than another. So when we choose to act with dignity and treat others equally, respect is sure to follow.

Why Engage?
Engaging others well means listening to people, caring for people, and advising people. By choosing to engage, you’re choosing to put the needs of others ahead of your own.
Why Educate?
We all have something to offer the world. So what’s stopping you from educating others about what you’ve learned? Be quick to offer your wisdom and guidance!
Why Equip?
Equipping others is the best way to love them well. By equipping them with the resources to make wise decisions, you’re investing in their future.
