Psalm 84:11 (NRSV) “For the LORD God is a sun and shield; he bestows (grants) favor and honor. No good thing does the LORD withhold from those who walk uprightly.” It is God who wants to bestow favor and honor on us. It is God that wants to protect us and provide for us. God does not want to hold any good thing from us. Sometimes we need to change our mindset about God and see Him as a God who is with us and for us.
God wants us to walk upright and be right with Him and man. God wants us to come to the point where we agree with Him. God wants us not only to agree with Him but obey Him, not because of something He is trying to withhold, but because of something He is trying to give us.
Today’s Challenge:
Have you come to the point of agreeing with everything God says? Is there still an area in your life you need to obey? Have you ever thought if you obeyed, God would bless you more in those areas? Do you see God as with you and for you?
