Listen and obey - Episode 168, June 17, 2015

A daily devotional through the Bible speaking with God as Adam and Eve may have in the garden east of Eden. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com

summary

Jehoshaphat served God the way David served God. He searched His word. He listened to and obeyed His laws. He did everything God asked His kings to do and God rewarded him for it. Consequently, his coffers grew, even the long lasting enemies of the land, the Philistines, brought rich gifts to Jehoshaphat to honor his reign and he immediately gave the credit to God.

That’s what happens when you’re faithful to God. He blesses you. It may be the same way in which He blessed Jehoshaphat, with riches and power and fear from your enemies. It may come in the form of peace and happiness but without a lot of wealth and stuff to clutter your life. It may come with pain and suffering, but knowing His peace, hope, and love that sustains you in the worst times of life. You will succeed in God's eyes… And that’s what’s important.
