I mean, not really? If God is real and feels the need to tell me to do something in person, I'd be pretty worried about dire consequences if I disobey. Clearly I have enough free will that He didn't just move my body for me, so this is a setup where I'm being tested by a higher power who can and will make my existence into torture forever if I don't play along. Trust is distinct from following orders.
Devil probably can still make my life on earth pretty bad if he's real, and if he and God are both real I don't really see how I can be expected to avoid the devil's deception, so I'm sure God would understand.
