Sin is constantly around us in this world.
Every day we need to make a choice: To sin or to obey.
Will I obey or disobey God before the situation that is set before me?
❛Blessed is the man who endures temptation...❜ - James 1:12
If I choose to sin, what reward will I have?
❛What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed?
For the end of those things is death.❜ - Romans 6:21
And what reward will I have if I choose to resist?
❛...whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments
and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.❜ - 1 John 3:22
❛Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.❜ - James 4:7
May the Lord bless you in Jesus' name!
❛who “will render to each one according to his deeds”...❜ - Romans 2:6
❛eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality...❜ - Romans 2:7
❛...we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.❜ - 2 Peter 3:13
❛Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel:
“Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.❜ - Jeremiah 7:3
❛Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out,
so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord...❜ - Acts 3:19

This is impossible to do without the Holy Spirit. However, I have seen firsthand the blessings compounded by obedience to the Lord. By walking in obedience, I experienced the love and favor of God in a way I previously had not known. God looks at our hearts. He seeks out those who seek Him out and He reveals Himself to them. Our God is truly amazing. To be in His Presence is to experience the greatest Love there is.

Those are very good words brother letters! The Lord is a rewarder of those who choose to obey Him! Praise the Lord.... we must remember that the things of this world are temporal but the eternal rewards are for forever and much much better than anything this world has to offer! May we keep pressing into our Lord Jesus who is so worthy of all that we are, all that we have!!!!

You are right 2fw8212a . It is all about making choices each day. There is no telling how many we make in a 24 hour period, and it is about doing what we feel like God wants us to do each and every time, based not just on feelings, but based on scripture. Good reminders.
