For to the one who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy, but to the sinner, he gives the task of amassing wealth - only to give it to the one who pleases God.This task of the wicked is futile – like chasing the wind!  Ecclesiastes2:26

There is not a way of being a servant of God and not obey his commandments. Those who think they can decide if they will obey or not what has been established are fooling themselves. Now, the commandments of the Almighty, not only are not painful, but also provide to those who fulfill his commandments a reward. It is profitable to have the divine commandments and keep them. Those who execute the Lord’s orders shall receive gifts and virtues from the hands of the Omnipotent God.

For the Almighty, a good person is the one who bows themselves before His will and obeys His determinations. This person is had in high esteem by the celestial authorities, for there will be no rebuke or condemnation in his records. Those who don’t worry about knowing what the servants of the Lord should or should not do, will find out that they have made the worse decision in their lives; with this, not only will they suffer condemnation but will also lose many blessings.

The people who fit in the qualification of good receive wisdom, knowledge and happiness. In this way, they will know how to act in all of the situations that may appear, being good or bad. Knowledge will give to those who have, a firmness that others won’t be able to have. Other than that, happiness will open doors in every decent place, preventing the enemy’s actions. At last, whatever is asked shall be given.

Now, those who maintain themselves in rebellion will always be full of problems and necessities.What the Christian does with the revelations received from the Lord influence their lives for good or bad. Those who love the world and the things that come with it, with no doubt, will always fall (1 Jo 2.15). He could experience and try the best from God, if only he dedicated himself in realizing what is ordered to be done.The ones who do good become examples of success through faith.

Some sinners work exceedingly, striving in extreme ways to save some more. However, this is a waste of time, for, in the moment that they could finally enjoy their hard work, they give to the Lord’s servant, before the Lord’s face (Ecclesiastes 2.26). Every spiritual law is eternal and inflexible, for it does not suffer any changes by the will of people. They work in the favor of the servants of the Lord.

The truth is that the Almighty didn’t plan for someone to work to give their returns to someone else, but, instead that the person may enjoy their hard work’s return. However, having seen that many do not dedicate themselves to do what is demanded, they eventually just start doing what the preacher says. Only by the Lord’s gifts, we will be able to enjoy what we have. There is no reason to fight to achieve each day more and more if you’re not in peace with the Lord.

Escaping from vanity and the affliction of spirit is what everyone wants; however, only those who believe in the Father and do His will be able to achieve this. It’s sad to see people with such great work potential, going through life without intelligence, knowledge and happiness that God gives to all who learn His will and fulfill it.

In Christ, with love,
