People who will not compromise

The Lord is looking for people who will obey and not compromise.  Saul was given a task back in 1 Samuel 15.  He was told to destroy the enemies of God.  Instead he kept tribute and did not destroy the king.  The Lord and Samuel were greatly distressed because Saul only partly obeyed.  Partial surrender is the most prevalent sin in the church.  We obey to a measure.  Partial obedience is like doing a half job.  It shows lack of commitment and a flaw in our character.  Half measures will never be good enough.  It is like running half the race and expecting to be rewarded.  Society has lowered the bar of expectation but God has not.  Partial surrender is called lukewarmness and Revelation 3, reminds us that a lukewarm  Christian will be spitted out.  Today throw away your disobedience, lukewarm hearts and come back to God.  He will heal, restore and revive you.  Hunger again for righteousness.  Thirst for Truth.  Be desperate for God.  His promise is that He will revive and restore you.  Pray because the answer is on the way.
