KEY TEXT: 1 Samuel 15:22 (NLT)
But Samuel replied, “What is more pleasing to the Lord: your burnt offerings and sacrifices or your obedience to his voice? Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice, and submission is better than offering the fat of rams.”
TIMELESS TRUTH: When we obey God, we are confirmed by Him, not conformed to the world.
