Obedience Is Better Than Sacrifice

In this second part of Randy Skeete’s A Closer Look series, learn about the greatest event in the history of existence: the atoning sacrifice of Jesus, the Son of God. Yet, the Bible says in 1 Samuel 15:22, "to obey is better than sacrifice.” What does "obedience is better than sacrifice" mean? Consider how our Lord wants us to obey Him as a sign of our love and commitment to Him. We do not need to offer burnt offerings, but instead God delights when we follow Him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. Are you ready to give God better than the best?
