What if I told you…?

Wisdom for Today

If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land. Isaiah 1:19


What if I told you that you will meet with success today? What things would come to mind? Would money, a promotion, that big deal you've been waiting on, maybe a new car, or how about a bigger house? Sounds exciting, don’t it? Well, if you want to meet with success today, there are conditions that must be met. You may ask what the conditions are. The condition for meeting with success is Obedience. Obedience is the key to everything. It’s the key to success, peace, happiness, joy, wisdom, knowledge and understanding. It’s the key to going to the next level. It’s the key to health, wealth and riches. But there are conditions that must be met. Just like a job in order to get a paycheck, you have to meet the conditions of working Monday through Friday, 8 to 10 hours a day to receive your pay. You'll meet the conditions of a job in order to get paid, but will you meet the conditions of obedience in order to meet with success, today?


There are conditions throughout the Word that instructs us on how to meet with success. Here are some examples:


If you walk in My statutes, keep and perform them…He will give you rain in your season, you will dwell safely, He will give you peace, He will look upon you favorably, He will bring you into a good land, you will eat bread without scarcity, He will give you the power to get wealth, prolong your days, He will command the blessing upon you, bless you in your body, bless you when you come in and go out, you will be the head and not the tail, above and not beneath and He will open His good treasure to you.


Now if you don’t meet the conditions according to obedience, you will not meet with success in any area in your life. Here are some examples:


If you do not obey Me, do not observe, despise My statues, if your souls detest My judgment, if you do not perform them and break My covenant, I will appoint terror upon you, disease and fever shall consume you, you shall sow seed in vain, your enemies shall eat you up, My face will be against you, you shall be defeated by your enemies and those who hate you shall reign over you. Sounds like the choice you make in not obeying, you alone ALLOWED these things to come upon you.


There is much more, but I did not want you think that our God is mean, He’s not. God is a just God, a good God and He is faithful to his children. The choice will always be left up to you. So remember, if you choose to obey-Hoorah, if you choose to disobey-You lose!


Have a Beautiful Day
