Obedience ALWAYS brings blessings

---

Trough obedience Peter became an apostle.
Paul through obedience became an apostle; Paul was obedient even during all the times he was in jail . He wrote letters to the churches while in jail. You think how could being in jail be a blessing! He was acting in obedience to God while in jail. He was blessed because of his obedience in times of hardships. Why? Because he knew God would never leave him our forsake him. How could a man be obedient going from jail to jail living in the environment of prisons. His trust and obedience of God's word to him that he must keep preaching the will of God. It must have been hard to keep his trust in God living in prisons. Romans 8 :28 God causes all things to work together for good. Not some but all things for good. Why does He allow bad things to happen? So that we may be blessed by our actions in obedience to God. God always blesses things through our obedience of His will. Are you a walking and living example of God's work? Blessings are not what you think a blessing is, but what God does by changing you to look like one of His people. You should shine like a living example of your obedience to follow God's will in your life. This is a blessing. These blessings come through times of your actions in rough times, and how you deal with them. Our walk with God its not to be a piece of cake. Find one person in the Bible who's life was peaceful. Our walk is going to be hard so that we may show Him that we act according to His Word for His purpose that He put us on this earth.
