Ṫhe pleasure of disobedience is so temporary compared to the consequence of it. For instance, the pleasure of immorality which is for a moment cannot be compared to the agony of suffering from sexually transmitted diseases.

Ṡurely, it is better to obey God at all times, because He knows the end from the beginning. And every instruction He gives is for the best out of life and His blessings. The scripture says that His thoughts for us are not of evil but of good, to give us a future and a hope.
Israel as a nation is one God used to teach us great things about obedience and disobedience. Whenever they disobeyed, evil came on them. But when they obeyed, good came on them.
When King Saul disobeyed God, the throne was taken from him and his family. And there, God taught us that obedience is better than sacrifice.
Moses, who God used greatly, also suffered for disobedience, and for disobeying Him, the Lord denied Moses from entering the Promised Land.
Disobedience to God is sure to happen on earth but it is a choice. And no one escapes the consequences. Make a choice today never to disobey God.
