Scripture:
“Tell the godly that all will be well for them. They will enjoy the rich reward they have earned! But the wicked are doomed, for they will get exactly what they deserve.” Isaiah 3:10-11 NLT
Observation:
God is speaking here through Isaiah and tells God’s people that things will go well for the godly. He says they will enjoy a rich reward for their godliness. The wicked, those who trust in idols and don’t live righteously, are going to get what they deserve. Isaiah has strong words for a nation that was walking away from God and serving other gods. The fruit of living godly or worldly will show in the end.
Application:
Although we are saved by grace, God does reward those who live righteously. He does take care of His own. I want to live in the blessing of God and enjoy the rich rewards of serving Him. I want my life to be lived out for God’s purposes and not my own. I want to live a life that makes God happy. I want my life to count for Him and His Kingdom.
Prayer:
Father, You are worthy of my very best! You are incredible and I want my life to glorify Your name. Help me to live in such a way as to attract Your blessing. I want to accomplish all You put me on earth to accomplish. Teach me to follow You well and to fulfill Your desires for my life. Lead me each step of the way and I will do my best to follow.
Yours Forever,
Jeff
