  • In this video Ralph talks about our deeply rooted aversion to obedience and shows how important obedience to God is for the sake of our salvation. He identifies some of the ways in which we rationalize disobedience and names particular “exceptions” to God’s will that we are tempted to make these days.

    Amazing! Thank God! Thank you Dr. Martin for these holy words that cause me to continue to examine my obedience and fan the flame of desire for all that Our Blessed Lord wants for me. God doesn’t need my obedience, I do! I pray for an increase in obedience, for myself and all who hear this strengthening exhortation. Thank you for the prayer at the end! 🌹

    Obedience is important for everyone...even priests need to obey their bishop.

    Pray to our Lord to gift you with obedience. Ask for a love that overcomes all things. He will come quickly to aid you. Thank you Ralph.

    Wow! Thankyou dear brother--PRAISE THE LORD! A real message to stay awake and not give up, but to really trust in the Lord who is our refuge and strength .

    “As hard as it is, lets be honest.”
    Very good advice, as hard as it is to hear.
    Obviously we are all very weak. So let’s be honest with ourselves and pray for Gods strength every day, thanking him for his sacrifice for us and thanking him for being so very merciful.

    Amen and thank you Dr. Martin 🙏. The world sees surrender and submission as a weakness but it is only in surrendering to Christ that we find peace and power and true freedom! "If you love Me, keep My commandments". John 14:15 No excuses! No exceptions! No compromise! This obedience can only be accomplished through the power of the Holy Spirit within us. Or we will fail every time.

    THANK YOU for having the GUTS to tell us the truth in such a loving, truthful way. I am basically a "coward" and your courage inspires me to stop being a sissy and tell my adult children and anyone else the TRUTH! Our loving God deserves our best..and YOU sure give it to Him. I am grateful.

    Thank you Dr Ralph Martin for this video on obedience the prayer at the end of the video was a Great blessing . Sometimes we think we can not be completely honest with OUR LORD that we need to pray a certain way and use certain words but your prayer and words of encouragement at the end of the video reminds me that yes we need to be completely honest with OUR LORD we can not do any of this ,our journey of faith and trust , obedience without HIM.HE desires that we pray to HIM with our hearts in honesty in every way thank you for your obedience it is just what I needed to hear today .

    In past was one of the worst backsliders.
    I now resist the devil and try to live by the Holy Spirit …sin is so bondage and like chains.
    Living for God is so peaceful. We just decide to live a Godly life,

    Maybe you could do a full episode on how you got over worrying or being too concerned about your health or how you felt which got it the way of your spiritual life and how God delivered you from that. I’ve heard you touch upon that before and it really spoke to me since I greatly struggle with that. I would love to hear more about that. But maybe you talk about it more here since I’m typing before I watch.

    Ralph, thank you so much for posting this! Several points are extraordinarily important and so rarely stated clearly today!!! For example, despite the evil influences around each of us, as you said so well, each individual must OBEY GOD ANYWAY! In other words, as He did with Adam and Eve, God WILL hold each of us accountable for every deliberate sinful act, especially those which are gravely evil. At the end, what a critical point made to stop deceiving ourselves with dissent but instead to call upon the loving and Almighty God for help to repent and amend our lives immediately. Dearest Mary, our mother, pray for us and help us obey.
