Leviticus 26:3-13
THE BLESSINGS OF OBEDIENCE
If you...are careful to obey my commands, I will send you rain... Leviticus 26:3-4, NIV
Life is governed by laws and principles. And these laws often come with conditions, which when flouted could have grave consequences. God gave the children of Israel several laws to guide their conducts and ensure their wellbeing.
He spelt out the condition attached to the obedience of these laws as well as the consequences of doing otherwise. God has also given us laws to live by as He gave to the Israelites. How are you faring with God's laws as found in the Bible? What about the laws of your country otherwise called 'Civil Laws'?
Do you find it difficult obeying the set rules of your institution/organisation? Do you find yourself perpetually disobeying constituted authorities? God does not take disobedience to His laws lightly and He also attaches "fringe benefits" to the obedience of these laws. Law breakers do not have any portion with God.
Therefore, surrender your life to Jesus today; ask Him for the grace to obey Him; ask Him to change your mindset from one that rebels to that which humbly sees an opportunity to obey God at all times. As you do so, you make God happy and you will surely enjoy the blessings that follow.
