The Cost of Obedience November 16th, 2025 | River of God | Sis SharonIn this powerful message, Sis Sharon teaches on what it truly means to walk in obedience to God — not partial obedience, not delayed obedience, but full surrender to His voice. Drawing from 1 Samuel 15:1–23, she unpacks the story of King Saul, who chose preference over obedience and paid the price for it. Even when Saul believed he was doing “mostly” what God asked, the Lord revealed that obedience is better than sacrifice and that rebellion opens the door to spiritual downfall.Sis Sharon then connects this lesson to the calling of the first disciples in Luke 5:1–11. Peter, exhausted and empty-handed after a night of failure, chose to obey Jesus’ instruction to launch out into the deep one more time. That moment of obedience unlocked a miraculous catch and a life-changing calling. Where Saul resisted God’s Word, Peter submitted — and heaven responded.This message challenges every believer to examine the places where we negotiate with God, delay His instructions, or cling to our own understanding. True obedience positions us for clarity, breakthrough, and purpose. When God speaks, our response determines the harvest that follows.📖 Scriptures Covered:1 Samuel 15:1–23Luke 5:1–11🙌 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe for more Bible teachings and sermons.🔔 Click the bell icon to stay updated with new messages.📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel:River of God Channel🌐 Stay Connected:Newsletter: eepurl.com/ioxFB2Website: https://rogcc.com📍 Join us in person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231 (Red Hook, Brooklyn, NY)🎯 Relevant Hashtags#TheCostOfObedience #1Samuel15 #Luke5 #ObedienceToGod #BiblicalObedience #FaithMessage #ChristianTeaching #BibleStudy #Sermon2025 #RiverOfGod #SisSharon #LaunchIntoTheDeep #ObedienceOverSacrifice #ChristianLiving #HolySpiritTeaching
