Walk in Obedience

 Scripture:

“Walk in obedience to all that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess.”  ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭5:33‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Observation:

In this passage God was speaking through Moses about how the children of Israel were to live when they entered into the Promised Land.  God was telling them over and over that He wanted to bless and prosper them, but that would require that they follow His ways and walk in obedience.  God has prepared a way for us to prosper and victorious, but we must walk in obedience to His ways in order to see those blessings.

Application:

Throughout these passages, God is speaking to His people to make His will known.  His will was that they would be His God and they would be His people.  He earnestly desired to give them the entire land they didn’t work for.  He desired to bless and prosper them so the world could see His glory through them.  There was one condition, they had to do it His way.  As believers, we must learn to walk in obedience.  God desires to bless and prosper us and give us victory, but our part is to walk in complete obedience to His will.

Prayer:

Lord God Almighty, You are incredible and I bow before You this morning.  Help me to walk in obedience every day of my life.  I want to live a blessed life.  Thank You for Your incredible provision in my life this year.  Thank You for Your many blessings.  Help me to hear Your voice and to do what You say at all times and in every season.  Let my life count for You and Your Kingdom.  I want to walk in complete obedience and no excuses.

Yours Forever,

Jeff
