“You may ask Me for anything in My name, and I will do it. If you love Me, you will obey what I command.” [John 14:14-15]
Commands, either from our heavenly Father or our earthly father, are directed by love. All such commands are in the best interests of those who are commanded. God has issued His commands to us in order to make us prosper.
It pays, therefore, to be obedient. Obedience brings its own reward. God has made it so. Since He has, we can know that He would never ask us to do anything that we aren’t capable of doing, or that we can’t do.
Obedience is love fulfilling every command. It is love expressing itself.
Dear Father God, I know that You give us commands in order to make us prosper. Thank You, Lord, that I may know that You reward obedience. Amen. [The Power of Prayer]
