What results does God promise if we honor the Lord? Prov 3:10;10:3; Mal 3:10,11 .
Many and varied are the blessings God pours out upon those who honor and trust Him. Sometimes He gives temporal prosperity. Sometimes, for reasons we do not understand, He withholds it. He always bestows upon His faithful children forgiveness from sin and offers assurance of eternal life.
The experience of one literature evangelist illustrates how God honors those who honor Him: "I recall having visited homes all day, introducing The Desire of Ages, without one interest. How was I ever going to earn enough money to make a living? But deciding to adopt a different strategy, I kept at it. At around 6:00 p.m., I was struggling to give yet another presentation, this time praying that the woman to whom I was speaking would accept the book and the truth it contained.
"She replied, 'Yes, I'll order it. My family needs it.' I was enlivened and refreshed. I went next door and once again prayed for the person to whom I was giving the presentation. That person also bought the book. By 7:15 p.m., I had visited four more homes, receiving orders in each of them. Three of those families later took Bible studies, and four persons joined the church."
When we keep our focus on the spiritual goal of witnessing, the Lord consistently supplies the need. If you have little or nothing of this world's goods, how can you follow the instruction to "honor the Lord with your wealth" Prov 3:9 (NIV)?
