Obey & Leave The Consequences To God

May I say, we are to obey God and leave all the consequences to Him. ["Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine." EXODUS 19:5] What an amazing thing to be called the "special treasure" of God! Obedience brings blessing, and far more blessing than we can imagine. The Bible says in Genesis 15 and 17, that God made a covenant with Abraham, promising to make his descendants into a great nation. Here that promise is being realized as God restates His agreement with the Israelite nation, the descendants of Abraham.
In verse eight of the text above; the people promised to obey Him. But the good intentions of the people quickly wore off, and they soon were back living in disobedience. The question for today child of God is this; When you placed your trust in Christ and received Him as your Lord and Savior, did you not at that time commit your heart to Him? Did you not commit to follow Him no mater what? The bottom line for you and me is this; are we holding up to our end of the bargain? You think about that, and I will to.
