Fear of God, Fear of Man (May 14)

Posted on May 14, 2013 by pastorjeffsneighborhood

Today’s Scripture Readings: Psalm 69:5-12 | 1 Samuel 15:1-16:23 | John 8:1-20 | Proverbs 15:8-10

Today’s Scripture Focus: 1 Samuel 15:1-16:23

Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obedience to the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice and to heed is better than the fat of rams….Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned. I violated the Lord’s command and your instructions. I was afraid of the men and so I gave in to them.” (1 Samuel 15:22, 24 TNIV)
