Summary

Explore how obedience to God brings blessings in our daily devotional podcast episode.

Introduction

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to experience more blessings in their lives than others? The answer lies in obedience to God. When we choose to follow his commands and live in alignment with his will, we position ourselves to receive his abundant blessings.

Obedience to God Brings Blessings

In these verses from Psalm 128, the psalmist reminds us that those who fear the Lord and walk in obedience to him are blessed. Obedience is not just about following a set of rules, but it is a reflection of our love and reverence for God. When we honour him with our actions and choices, he showers us with his favour and goodness.

God’s blessings can manifest in various ways in our lives. However, it is important to remember that blessings go beyond material possessions. They encompass the spiritual and emotional well-being that comes from living in harmony with God’s plan for our lives.

When we choose to obey God, we align ourselves with his divine purposes. We surrender our own desires and trust in his wisdom and guidance. This obedience opens the door for him to work in and through us, bringing about his blessings and fulfilling his promises.

Obedience Is Not Always Easy

Even though we may know obedience to God brings blessings, we also discover that obedience is not always easy. There may be times when we are tempted to go our own way or when we struggle to understand God’s plan. In those moments, we can find encouragement in knowing that God is faithful. He sees our obedience, even when it goes unnoticed by others, and he rewards it in his perfect timing.

Cultivating Obedience in Our Lives

Knowing obedience to God brings blessings, how can we cultivate obedience in our lives? It starts with a deepening relationship with God. As we spend time in his Word and in prayer, we grow in our understanding of his character and his desires for us. We also need to rely on the Holy Spirit to empower us to make choices that honour God and resist the temptations of the world.

Reflection Question:

In what areas of your life do you struggle to obey God? Knowing obedience to God brings blessings, how can you seek his guidance and strength to overcome those struggles and experience his blessings?
