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.
