I Believe in Jesus Christ

Linked Obedience

Read Luke 2:21–32

In this day of technology, we are familiar with linked information. The “click here” prompt takes us to expanded knowledge on almost any topic a person can imagine.

It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord’s Christ (Luke 2:26).

Joseph and Mary were obedient to the Law of God when they brought Jesus to the temple to present Him to the Lord.

Simeon, believing that he would see the Messiah before he died, moved when he was prompted by the Spirit. He obeyed and went to the temple courts (Luke 2:27).

Simeon’s revelation of God’s promise was linked to Joseph and Mary’s obedience to the Law which was linked back to Simeon’s obedience to the Holy Spirit’s nudge. These linked acts of obedience were instrumental in the fulfillment of God’s initial promise to Simeon.

What link do you fill in God’s plan? Is someone’s spiritual growth, or an answered prayer, dependent on your obedience?

Prayer Suggestion: Lord help me be sensitive to the prompting of Your Holy Spirit and obedient to Your command.
