THE BLESSINGS ATTACHED OF OBEDIENCE
There is a great joy given for the person who will obey God's word! What a satisfaction is given to each one who honors God enough to follow His will! What rich blessings are in store for everyone who trusts God for everything, who takes God into consideration in every plan of life!.
The world can duplicate those blessings. Houses, lands, friends, wealth, prestige and power cannot give one small fraction of the reality that simple obedience to God's word gives most copiously.
Those of the Israelites who disobeyed, died before they reached their inherentance; but those who obeyed entered the land that flowed with milk and honey, where they could eat bread to the full and be satisfied.
Let us not stop short of spiritual Cannan! Let us not let the prize for which we have labored, contended and hope pass from our grasp at the last moment, as we stand on the very border of our inheritance, by falling implicitly to obey God's simple commandment or His revealed wil for us!
Here is given us the secret of success in the Christian life; complete obedience. One cannot be a Christian unless he obeys what God tells him to do. One cannot continue in God's favour if he refuses to walk in the will of God and rebels at the command of God.
Obedience is the keystone of it all, the one requirment which, if we carefully heed, will not only bring us to the "border of the land" but will take us on over that we might enjoy the blessings abiding therein.
