Obedience is related to trust.
You will disobey for a number of reasons but primarily it is tied to TRUST
Do you trust God? How will you know?
Do You have any promises of God that determine Your behavior and staying the course?-Obeying
How about—”loss” in eternity?
Great return on your investment?
A life that counts?—2 Peter 1:5-11 Bearing Fruit?
Rewards? Revelations 22:12-13
Approved of by God?
Commentary and questions:
Deuteronomy 17:14-2018"Also it shall be, when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write for himself a copy of this law in a book, from the one before the priests, the Levites.
19"And it shall be with him, and he shall read it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear the LORD his God and be careful to observe all the words of this law and these statutes,
20"that his heart may not be lifted above his brethren, that he may not turn aside from the commandment to the right hand or to the left, and that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he and his children in the midst of Israel.
Questions on Solomon?
• Was Solomon a wise man?
• What were the High Places?
• From our point of view, what was he lacking?
Review: Saul Sin of disobedience,
Cost him the no developed relationship His Son and
with God the promise Saw his sin against man and his redemption in Samuel David Sin of adultery, lying, murder, Cost him a child,
not being where he belonged, Cost him peace in taking a census… family, death of
his people. Kept the promise
Saw his sin against God and his only hope and redemption in the grace of GodSolomon Sin of breaching the three warnings, Cost him the entanglement, drifting from God the kingdom and his
relationship with God and the promise
He said his conclusion was to … obey and fear God

eIsrael Jeroboam
Jeroboam:
The great downfall of Jeroboam--
He not only sinned but taught others to sin…
He turned from God’s promise and tricked the people into idolatry to insure his kingship.
Of the first four:
3 out of four lost there bet on their legacy. All stumbled badly in their walk with God But All had personal, great experiences with God
In God’s value system…
It is not your obedience-performance average that has God’s attention.
It has something to do with repentance, contriteness, and respect for the word. --Brokenness
And Trust
A man’s greatness is not found in His experience but his trust and knowing God

Jeroboam
1 Kings 13:2-3 “Then he ( a man of God) cried out against the altar by the word of the Lord and said, “O altar, altar! Thus says the Lord: Behold a child Josiah by name, shall be born to the house of David; and on you he shall sacrifice the priests of the high places who burn incense on you, and men’s bones shall be burned on you. And he gave a sign the same day, saying, “This is the sign which the Lord has spoken: Surely the altar shall split apart and the ashes on it shall be poured out
