Disobedience disconnects you. It's like attempting to make a phone call without a Sim card.

Bishop Bolu Fam
@bolu_fam

When you live in Disobedience, irrespective of the anointing you carry, you will still have the same consequences.

Reconnection to God is by wilfully obeying God.

Bishop @FamBolu

The devil will use explainable things that makes sense to you but nonsense to God to disconnect you

Living in disobedience brings self-destruction.

This can make you ascribe powers to individuals and label them witches and wizards as the cause of your problems.

Every cockroach that flies in your house becomes a terror to you.

When you live in the perfect will of God, enemies will hear -'touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm'.

Stop empowering powerless things.
Saul empowered his armour bearer to kill him when he was going through the consequences of his disobedient lifestyle.
1 Chron. 10.4

The greatest enemy you have in the faith is YOU.

Living in disobedience brings rejection from God.
Saul was the first anointed King over Israel. He's very important to God. God handpicked him.

Yet. He was rejected. Though he was still king in the Palace many years after God had rejected him.

Saul started having problems with God from his second year. Yet he maintained his seat for 20 years.

Don't be deceived by any status or position or title or even that you're born again. You must live a life of conscious obedience to the will God.

Salvation is at the end, not the beginning.

Saul died doing his ministry - leading the armies of Israel.

The best of your character before God is when you are alone.

You need to endure to the end. Don't take salvation for granted.

Your acid test is your life of obedience.

Do you have now the same passion for the things of God as when you first believed?

Saw was very hot in the beginning. He wasn't even looking to become a king. God orchestrated his assumption to the throne.
1 Sam 19.

He was willing to be obedient to whatever God says.

God chose Him as He has chosen you for Christ.
But you have to be consistent in your obedience to His instructions

Don't let position enter your head. Otherwise you will transgress.

Impatience will lead you to disobedience. Calm down.

Saul trespassed into the office of a priest.

Have patience with everyone. Even with your God given dreams and assignments
1 Sam 13.13

God wanted to make Saul's kingdom remain forever. But His impatience was the problem.
You're not all-knowing. You only know what you know. God knows all. Learn to obey.

God has substitutes for every thing he wants you to do.

Obedience is what will make you irreplaceable

@FamBolu

You have obligations as a disciple of Jesus.
You have to step into his shoes for the salvation of others.
His death is so that you might arise and continue His works.

Saul missed it because he didn't stay in his assignment.

When you twist obedience, you're living in disobedience.

Saul remixed God's direct instructions.
1 Sam. 15:2,3,5,7

You know in your heart when you want to be disobedient to instruction.

Saul wasn't expecting God's anger. They just had a major victory!

But God won't excuse disobedience. After his Ámalekites debacle, God left his. It was just a matter of time before his expiry date arrived.

It was Saul's transgressions that killed him. Not the arrow of the enemy. Even the enemy could not kill him. He was that anointed. But Samuel wasn't there on the day he killed himself.
1 Chron. 10.13

Don't think you're smart when you disobey the Lord and nothing happens.
The Pastor, neighbor, friends etc may not know. But God knows. And will bring it to the open.

It's a matter of time. That's why you must turn now.

@FamBolu

If you don't keep his word, there'll be a day God's word will not keep you.
If you keep his word, there's no day God's word will fail to keep you.

@FamBolu

Wake up!
So that you don't go for counsel where you shouldn't.

Saul went to a witch for counsel because disobedience had broken his connection with God.

Single yourself out of the crowd.

Every one will get the reward due them.
Where are you in the will of God.

The wages of sin is death. Nobody killed Saul. His transgression killed him.
Watch out on your transgressions and disobedience

Psalm 1.1
