Isaiah 1:19 (King James Version) If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
I love to eat food that is made from scratch. Not some store bought product. Although some are pretty good. Here God is telling us about the principle of obtaining what good is in this land. This means houses, cars, vacations, etc... But then He tells us about the person which is Jesus Christ.
Notice it states if you are willing and obedient. The willingness comes from us submitting to the person of our faith Jesus Christ. I Peter 5:6 states if we humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God, then He will exalt, promote, and bring us the good of the land. Willingness is the first part, then there's the obedience. Obedience comes from a life that has submitted to Christ in every area of our life. This requires daily, maybe hourly reevaluate our conversations, actions, and thoughts.
When we submit to the person of our Faith Jesus, then we will obtain the good in the land.
God Bless,

Obedience is key. I am so glad to have our Lord and Savior in my life and I try to be more like him everyday in everything I do. Thank you Father for your mercy and your grace upon our lives everyday.
