Undisputable Benefits of Serving God
The benefits of serving God
Job 1:19-21
One of the benefits of serving God is that He makes a hedge around those that fear Him. It is an invisible fence surrounding those that believe on Him. We need to know the benefits of God’s knowledge in us. He said that He would be a wall of fire round about us. He that touches those that serve Him touches the apple of His eye.
When there is a wall of fire surrounding you, nothing can harm you or come near your dwelling. In psalm 91, we see here that there is a supernatural incubation of God. Elisha made his servant know that those that were with them were more than those that came against them. God uses the pillar of cloud to shield His people. Isaiah 4:5-6 tells us that the pillar of cloud, pillar of fire and the glory of God are all refuge in the time of storm and trouble.
Psalm 46 tells us that God is our refuge. When you serve God dutifully, He makes a pillar of cloud and fire round about you. Satan knew this and told God that Job did not fear Him for nothing. Acknowledge the hedge around you and nothing can harm you. Believe this knowledge and nothing will hurt you. The Lord is a sun and shield and no imagination can hurt you.
The controversy is that sin is in the camp because we lack knowledge. We do not know who we are in God. The Devil fears those that have the knowledge of who God is. There are a lot of benefits and blessings because you know that there is a hedge around you. There are angels surrounding you on every side keeping charge of you day and night. This is why you should serve and follow Him. Nothing should penetrate into you. Even when the enemy is embedded inside the camp, you are protected by God Himself. The more you are afflicted, the more you are stronger. You are a terror to the enemy….do not forget this statement.
It is not by saying the blood of Jesus that protects you; you are already under protection as long as you fear God. When you fear the enemy, the hedge is removed. Job 3:25 tells us that what he feared most came upon him. When there is unforgiveness, the door is open and we should not give room to the devil. When we are robbers in the church, the devourer will come. When we are prayer- less, the devil will come in. Be warned!
When you serve God, the hedge covers your house and everything that connects you. The works of your hands will be blessed because you fear Him. Our substance will be increased in the land because we fear Him. The irony of it all is that the devil knows what rightfully belongs to us but we do not know this! We serve the God of increase and so, we must increase. The unbelief of some does not make the word of God null effect. You must know your right in God and never give room to the devil.
Do not lack the knowledge of God so that all of these blessings will be yours. We are blessed not because we are righteous but because of His mercy. Selah!
