Luke 11:28 New International Version (NIV)
28 He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear
the word of God and obey it.”
God gave us his word to bless us. When we obey what he asks
of us, we get to walk in that blessing. On the other hand, as Jesus reminded us
at the end of the Sermon on the Mount, when we know the will of God and don't
obey it, we are foolish. I don't know about you, but I prefer to receive a
blessing! Thank God for speaking to us through his word — the Scriptures — so
we can know his will and walk in his blessing and for speaking to us through
his living Word — his Son — so we can know his heart as we apply it to our
lives.
Thought for today:
Do I know the cost of disobedience and am I willing to pay it?
