- 9 Benefits of Pleasing God
Pleasing God means trusting that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him diligently (Hebrews 11:6). It means believing in His Son Jesus Christ, accepting Him as your Lord and Savior, and allowing Him to lead you in all that you do. Something important that we need to understand is that pleasing God doesn’t just happen. We need to be intent...
• Be Spiritually Minded
God is a spirit, and to connect with Him and become Christ-like, we need to be spiritually minded. That is why God gave us the Bible. The words written in it are spirit and life. When we study the Word and meditate on it, our minds are transformed, and we become spiritually-minded. A spiritually-minded person focuses on the things of God. Their quest in life is to please their Heavenly Father. (Romans 8:6)
• Obey God
Let us be honest – it is challenging to remain obedient to God in this world, especially today when evil is preferred over good. However, we need to follow what the word of God says, and that is to obey God in all that we do. The truth is most of us find it easy to trust God in some areas of our lives, not all. But God does not want you to trust Him only when it is convenient for you. We need to trust our Heavenly Father even in difficult situations because it’s only in doing that that we ple...
• Worship God
One of the main reasons that God created man was so that we will worship Him. It is not that God cannot do without us worshiping Him. Doing so is for our own good. Worship not only pleases God but is an excellent weapon for defeating the enemy. When we worship, God fights on our behalf and causes us to walk in victory. Worship also opens up doors for supernatural breakthroughs in our lives.
1. You will Have Peace from God
The world tells us that spending time alone, listening to music, watching movies, or visiting your favorite place will give you peace. But as believers, we know there is more to it than just doing these things. Well, you may get temporary peace by doing those things but following God’s way gives you peace that the world doesn’t provide (John 14:27). When you’re determined to please God, He gives you peace in your heart, even in the most challenging situations. We do not have to go about life...
2. You will Have the Protection of God
If the government passed a decree that everyone should serve only one god, would you do it? Would you stick to your faith and lose your life? Or would you rather save your life and abandon your faith? Daniel was not willing to abandon his faith in God. He was willing to lose it for the sake of his belief in Yahweh. Even when Daniel knew that he would be thrown in the lion’s den, he did not denounce his faith but stood firm. The result of his faith was protection from God (Daniel 3:12-20). Whe...
3. You will Have an Eternal Life
Of all the benefits of pleasing God, I believe this is the most important one. I do not mean that other benefits are not important, but having eternal life is better than the benefits we get to enjoy in this current world. In John 3:15it says that so that everyone who believes in Christ will have eternal life. When we walk by faith and please our Heavenly Father, He deposits the Holy Spirit as a guarantee of our faith and eternal life. You can have the best life in this world, but that does n...
- We express our joy out loud. That is, we praise him. Lips of praise are an aspect of lives of worship. God is pleased by heartfelt words of praise. Verse 15
- We fight to free our hearts from money. Even twenty centuries ago, Christians could not free their hands from money. Even Jesus was asked about the temple tax and miraculously produced a coin for himself and Peter.
- We love and serve others. We could say so much under this heading about these verses. For now, let me just address this in sum. Joy in Jesus does not lead to turning in on ourselves, to isolating ourselves and neglecting the needs of others, or to just sitting around endlessly by ourselves enjoying the glory of Christ.
- We prize marriage. So, there are four kinds of love in verses 1–4: brother-love, stranger-love, sympathy (or compassion), and marital love. And let me just say, verse 4 is for all of us.
