Obeying is better than sacrifices
The sermon emphasizes the need for obedience to Gods word, even when it is difficult or goes against our desires or affections. The story of Saul in the Bible teaches us several principles, including the importance of obedience to Gods commands, the ineffectiveness of praise and rituals as a substitute for obedience, and the need to follow Gods sense of justice and mercy rather than our own.
