WHY OBEY GOD?

Deuteronomy 28:4 – “Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.” 

This amazing promise of God which abound in blessings for us has everything to do with our obedience to Him. Our God is not only a promise-keeping God, He is also a loving – kind – generous – forgiving – God. 

The benefits we have for obeying Him are listed in detail in Deuteronomy Chapter 28 and the list is very extensive. And obeying God is actually something that Jesus asked us to do, He said: “If you love Me, you will obey what I command.” (John 14:15). 

We make choices daily: what to cook, where to eat, where to shop, how much to spend, etc. So, one of our daily choices needs to be ‘obedience to God’.  

When we choose to obey God, we choose to follow His direction, His footsteps and His commands. 

When we choose to obey God, His blessings follow us. Our obedience should be wholehearted, done with love and for the love we feel for Him, who loved us first.  

So why obey God? Because we love Him, because this pleases Him, and because we will be blessed in everything most abundantly. Amen.
