3. It Is About Your Obedience to the Word of God

Jesus teaches that when we abide in Him and His words abide in us, we can ask according to His will and it shall be done for us.

This passage teaches that blessings follow obedience to God's Word. If we diligently obey the voice of the Lord and carefully observe His commandments:

- God's blessings will come upon us.

- We will be blessed wherever we go and wherever we stay.

- The fruit of our bodies will be blessed.

- The produce of our ground will be blessed.

- The increase of our possessions will be blessed.

These blessings are connected to our obedience to God's Word.

The Example of Isaac

- Genesis 26:2–6, 12–13 -Isaac is an example of someone who obeyed God's instructions. Even though there was a famine in the land, Isaac stayed in the place where God instructed him to stay. He sowed in that land, and God blessed him.

Isaac began to prosper, continued prospering, and eventually became very prosperous. His story demonstrates the importance of obedience, faith, and trusting God's Word even in difficult circumstances.
