IF YOU….HE WILL
Today, as I continue finishing the final details on my Mission Possible Book & Online Study, I am humbled to realize that God is always pushing me to get out of my comfort zone and asking me to CREATE. It would be so easy to say, “I’ve done enough.” Or even more real to the point are the voices that say, “Why create? Who wants it anyway? Every book has already been written and who needs the Staci Wallace version of how to experience a truly blessed life, business, marriage and family?”
But then comes that still small voice that prods me to obey and not ask questions. “Lean not to your own logic or understanding.” it says. “Just OBEY.”
And what’s the reward for obedience? What happens IF I obey? According to scripture, it says, that HE WILL command a blessing over my life, my family and our interests.
Deuteronomy 28:1-14 – “Now it shall come to pass, IF YOU diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God, HE WILL set you high above all nations of the earth. 2 And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the Lord your God:
“Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country.
“Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.
“Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.
“Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out. “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.
“The Lord will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
“The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways. 10 Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you. 11 And the Lord will grant you plenty of goods, in the fruit of your body, in the increase of your livestock, and in the produce of your ground, in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you. The Lord will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand.
You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them.”
SO WHAT IS GOD ASKING OF YOU TODAY?
What have you been resisting that could actually be the link to your next season of greater effectiveness? Remember: IF YOU….HE WILL
