When you eat the labor of your hands, You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you.  Psalm 128:2

Those that fear God will be blessed and successful in all that they do in any area of life and wherever they are. Furthermore, they will have guidance to face the problems that come before them along the journey. On the other hand, to stop respecting the Lord is a great stupidity, for this will cause the enemy to invade your life and oppress you. 

People who are under the enemy´s oppression don’t reflect anymore the brightness of faith and they live sad and discouraged. By the way the live, they prove that they are far from pleasing God. However, if they are not careful, and no matter how hard they strive to show that everything goes well, it will clearly show that they have problems. 

Those that have the fear of the Lord must walk according to His orientation. However, many of these people are stagnant in their walk of faith and, although they are encouraged, they always find an excuse to try to explain the inexplicable. The truth is that the person who is in good terms with God does not have any problem, but they have many opportunities to show how much they trust Him. Besides respecting the Most High, seek to walk the divine paths. 

At every work you do guided by God, He will give you the good food – revelations of what you need to believe in and claim to improve your standard of living. It is unthinkable that someone who claims to belong to the Lord does not have the sufficient strength to cause the evil power to leave their life and of their relatives. Many people are mistaken when they say they have faith, but actually live as if they did not know the Most High. 

The evidence that someone has the fear of the Lord and obeys Him is seen by the happiness they display at all times. First, they are not concerned with what they will wear or eat, not even with their rent or other expenses they have to pay (Matthew 6:25). Those who respect what God says see the chances He puts before them, and then, they no longer submit themselves to the wickedness of the enemy and his temptations. 

Happiness in the life of a Christian is like a certificate that they have peace with God. However, sadness, deceptions and other sorrows of the soul prove that they don’t walk like the Father wants, for they stumble and fall all the time. If adversities reach you constantly, examine yourself and see if you have respected the divine will. To those who obey the Lord, victory is certain. 

What will you do after this study? Will you let the enemy continue afflicting your life? The works of darkness cannot prosper in you any longer; otherwise you will be accountable for any loss that someone will suffer forever. Whether you want it or not, as a Christian, you are a calling card of the Lord. If defeat dominates you, what will those people that observe your actions say about Jesus? 

In Christ, with love,
