📖 SCRIPTURE
Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings!”
— Acts 5:29 (NIV)

🕊️ DEVOTIONAL WORD
You’re not waiting on people. You’re waiting on courage.

God already confirmed it. Their silence doesn’t cancel it.
Their discomfort isn’t your disobedience.

Obedience won’t always get a round of applause, but it always releases power.
He didn’t consult a focus group before calling you—so why are you polling for permission?

Some assignments come with divine clarity and earthly resistance.
Move anyway. Build anyway. Obey anyway. You don’t need validation.
You need clearance—and you already have it.

⚓ ANCHOR WORD — O.B.E.Y.
Overrule opinions
Break agreement with fear
Execute what He said
Yield to His voice

🗣️ SAY IT ALOUD:
“I don’t need their permission. God already gave me instruction.”

🔥 POWER PROMPT:
Where have I delayed obedience because I was afraid of judgment, not God?

CLOSING PRAYER:
Lord, I choose Your instruction over their validation.
I release the fear of man and step fully into obedience.
Help me walk boldly in what You told me, even if no one else understands.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
