Theme Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:22-23

Additional Scriptures: John 14:15, James 1:22-25, Genesis 12:1-4

God is not looking for a yes that stops where our will begins. He is looking for a surrendered yes. Because God does not require sacrifice in place of obedience—He requires obedience before sacrifice. And partial obedience is still disobedience because it reveals a heart that has not fully surrendered to God.
