BLESSINGS FOR OBEDIENCE

I went for an afternoon photo shot in Singapore city area. I really love all the beautiful architecture and the river in the Singapore.


BLESSINGS FOR OBEDIENCE

The Bible encourages us to be obedience to God so that we can receive the blessings from God. I believe obedience is a matter of trust. When we fly on an airoplane, we cannot see the pilot but we listen and obey his instruction because we trust his knowledge and experience. If the pilot tell us to remain seated and put on the sit belt we follow his instruction because we know that he can see something ahead that we cannot see. Likeweise, we need to learn to trust in God so we can experience His blessing. Read Deuternomy 28:1-6

1 If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. 2 All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the LORD your God: 3 You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country. 4 The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks. 5 Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed. 6 You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.

I would like to share in three blessings to trust God;

Blessing in the family

God promised to bless our family when we obey and trust in Him. The Bible says that the fruits of our womb will be blessed (Deut 28:4). His blessings will flow into our family, marriage, children and relatives when we obey Him. God desires to honour him with our words and actions. When we live according the principles of God in the Bible, there will be peace, joy and prosperity.

Blessing in our labour

We reap an abundant fruits and harvests on your labour when we follow God's direction. We can receive God's favor over our work, career, investment and business. God will bless the crop of our land as we serve His kingdom. God will make provision in our lives when we follow His leading. God will take of our lives as we trust and obey Him.

Blessing in our daily activities

God is watching over over us. The Bibles says that God will blesses us in our daily activities.

"You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out" Deuternomy 28:6.

I heard a pastor sharing about inviting the presence of God in our daily activities. He talk to God while he was driving the car. Wherever he goes, he is conscious of the presence of God. We need to cultivate the presence of God wherever we are. Allow God to speak to us during the throughout the day and night. He desires to fill us with His love, peace, joy, strength and wisdom each day.
