Do first & ask forgiveness later. . . unh-unh!

Do first & ask forgiveness later. .  unh-unh!

I Sam. 15:22
Samuel said, Has the Lord as great a delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices

as in obeying the voice of the Lord?

[The answer to that question is:]
Behold, TO OBEY IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE,

and to hearken [better than] than the fat of rams [the choicest part of all the sacrifice].

Pray the Word:

Lord, I want to glorify You and deny myself more by being obedient to Your Word & Will, first of all, then I won’t feel it necessary to have to do penitence through some sort of sacrifice – for sacrifice is a feeble attempt to take away what obedience would have prevented.
