Who doesn\u2019t want God\u2019s blessing in their lives? People who choose to follow the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Obedience brings blessings. God honors our efforts to follow Him, but we won\u2019t receive the reward if we don’t try. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When facing the unknown, trying to obey what scripture says, despite the opposite of what my flesh wants to do, leads me to an often-uttered prayer, \u201cBless my efforts, Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Trusting God will notice and bless my actions helps spur me on to obedience. Reminding myself of the prophet Isaiah\u2019s words, \u201cour righteous acts are like filthy rags\u201d (Isaiah 64:6), helps keep me humble and reminds me that I can do nothing without Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If we seek trouble, we will find it.\u00a0 But if we pursue righteousness through Jesus, relying on God for help, we will find His favor.\u00a0 Ask God for His blessing, do your best to honor Him, and expect the Lord to answer with His goodness.<\/p>\n\n\n Lord, forgive us for following the ways of the world.\u00a0 Help us tune in to Your desires for our life.\u00a0 Bless our efforts as we try to follow You to the best of our ability.\u00a0 In all things, let You receive the glory and honor.\u00a0 IJNIP.
