For do I now persuade men, or God?

Acts 4:19 NKJV
But Peter and John answered and said to them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge.

Shalom and good Wednesday afternoon.... Taken your lunch? Well today, again God us reminding us - are we God pleaser or man pleaser? Father bless Your. Let it change they way we do things in the ministry. In Jesus name, amen.

You know this may be a short sharing. But i believe its a wake up call for everyone. Sometimes, when God speaks and ask us to do something, we tend to delay. But when human ask to do, we do it faster. Why? To get promoted. To be recognized. And many other things. Some people even will go to the extend of betraying one another just for speaking up the truth. It is better to obey God and do His will then to obey human and die.

In obeying God and doing His will, there are consequences that you need bare with. People sometimes tends to despise any Word from the Holy Spirit. When a prophet releases a Word, people believes. Yet a normal church member reveals a word they tend to despise it. Why? Because he/she is just a normal person. So if this normal person releases the Word from the Holy Spirit, later, there are consequences that he/she had to bare.

Whether to obey God or not to? It is your choice. If you firmly believe it is the stirring of the Holy Spirit, then you need to say it out. As Peter said.. Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge.

Going to the NEXT LEVEL is about pleasing God totally and not men. Which category are you? Are you dare enough to stand up for what you believe in and stand up for the cause? Or you feel, its better for me to shut my mouth and play it safe? Be bold! Be aggressive! Be radical! Do what God has spoken to you. Do not hold back.

Galatians 1:10 NKJV
For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.
