BLESSINGS

TODAY'S PROMISE

How joyful are those that fear the Lord-all who follow his ways!

Psalm 128: 1

TODAY'S THOUGHT

Throughout the Bible, you find a simple but pro-found principle:

Obeying God brings blessing, and disobeying God brings misfortune.

But be careful not to think of these blessings in terms of only material

possessions.

The greatest blessings are far more valuable than money or possessions.

They come in the form of joy, family, relationships, a well-functioning home,

peace of mind, spiritual gifts, and the confidence of eternal life.

A life focused on God brings joy to God and many blessings to you.

The more you trust and obey God, the more you will experience

the blessings he gives.

TODAY'S PLAN

Other than happiness, what are some other blessings you experience through obeying God?

In what ways can you pursue those blessings today?
