The Benefits Of God

 Psalm 103:1,2

There are benefits that come with serving God and following God.

Our text passage shows us this.

Psalm 103 lists the benefits that are and can be ours from God.

The Bible shows us many benefits of God and we will do well not to forget them.

God distinguishes between those who serve Him and those who don't.

Exodus 8:23

Malachi 3:18

It is important to know the benefits of anything we are doing and anyone we are following.

We are not created to live lives of continuous service, discipleship, and following God without any rewards.

Colossians 3:23,24

There are rewards God has for you and benefits He wants you to enjoy.

The wisdom of rewarding and making benefits available started with God, it comes from God.

As there are certain benefits that come with being gifted, talented, being married, associating with certain people, living right, taking care of yourself and blessing others, there are benefits  that come with following and obeying God.

1 Corinthians 15:18

The benefits of God are compensation, rewards, or blessings that come with being associated with God.

God has benefits for you!

Benefits are things we stand to gain and enjoy.

Right from the beginning, God has always sought to benefit humanity.

We see this with the account of creation, we see God prepared and put everything beneficial in place for man before man arrived on the scene of life.

Genesis 1

God's benefits are good enough reasons for us to bless God.

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination. Car drivers either buy a GPS/Navigation device system or

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus
