My media channels all go to Garth Heckman starting today… Today I uploaded a clip of me unloading a 30 round mag in my new Glock 19X and then add some flavor to it with another weapon thrown in… 

 

Text me 30 second interviews of you asking people “whats it take to be a man” (and send me yours as well) Please let people know this is not a gender question… just simply in each persons mind we have a simple theory of what it takes to be a man… I will post them on all my social meads channels… hey I would love to hear from women as well. There are no right or wrong answers… and I don’t just want christian men, so if a guy cusses we will edit it out if its really bad. 

 

I once asked my wife to do something… quite hard for her, and maybe even selfish on my part… but she smiled and obeyed… it was at that moment that I realized all the obedience on my part had created a oneness that we had never had up to that point… and in that oneness came a deep power to work, live and minister together….

 

 

In the middle of the night, there was a pastor in Chicago who was awakened from his sleep. He heard the Holy Ghost tell him to go down to the Chicago train station and preach the Gospel. He thought to himself, “that’s silly. Why would God ask me to do that?” So he rolled over and went back to sleep. The same thing happened again, and then a third time, until finally the man gave in and drove to the train station.

When he arrived no one was there, but he was obedient and preached a basic Gospel message and even gave an altar call even though it seemed no one was even listening. Afterwards, he went home. 

Years later that same pastor went to a Billy Sunday meeting where the great evangelist gave his testimony of how he received salvation. He said, “I was down at the Chicago train station, and there was a man preaching the Gospel, and even though I couldn’t see him nor did I know where the voice was coming from, he led me to the Lord that night!” Billy Sunday reached millions of people with the Gospel through his ministry.

 

Handstand at the slurpy machine. 

 

Obedience is a fancy term for faith.

You can’t have one without the other. 

 

Obedience is a muscle.

The more you practice it the stronger it gets. 

 

 

Obedience brings power - If I can trust you I will give you more power. The talents… you get more. 

 

Obedience is not always understood by you - 

So many times I have scratched my head and asked God why? And all he replies is just do it. Many times later I understand and see why.

 

 

Obedience is uncomfortable

Most of the time… but I will say this, the more you practice obedience the easier it becomes… never completely a walk in the park, but definitely easier and easier. 

 

 

Obedience is not understood by the masses 

Radical obedience will never be understood by the lukewarm and the lost. 

 

 

Obedience is the first domino

Once you obey in the small things… the big things open up to you.

 

Obedience and its fall out many times happens later - Obedience is like compound interest. At the 16th year your interest just about matches your investment. At year 40 it is more than 3X’s your investment. I.e. if you invest 185k, in 40 years it will be worth over 800K.

Obedience is the greatest interest you would ever want to reap. 

 

Obedience to those over you is just as important as 

 

Obedience to God

If you can’t obey those in power over you, it will be almost impossible for God to use you in obedience to him.
