The Blessings Of Obedience

 Deuteronomy 30:16 "For I command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commands,  decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess".
Would you like to be in a position to prosper? Well the best position to prosper, is in the obedience to God. The word of God tells us you will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water and in everything you shall prosper.
Many tend to think that a blessing is a material gift or some kind of worldly gain. But the truth is the blessings of God can come in a variety of ways. A peaceful day is a blessing. Waking up in the morning is a blessing, Your family being well is a blessing and even bad news can be a blessing if it leads you to call upon the name of the Lord. Anything which makes you call upon the name of the Lord is a blessing. If you truly want to be in a position to prosper make sure you are in obedience to God.
Here in our text  the man of God is telling the children of Israel to love the Lord, to walk in accordance to His word, and keep His commandment, and they will have life, and they will have increase and they will be blessed of the Lord in the land they enter to possess. As you can see our blessings lie in our obedience to God and His word.
