Doing what God says, opens the door for God to do exceedingly, abundantly more than you could ask or think.

The thought behind the quote
I remember when my children were growing up, teaching them to obey was the most difficult part of parenting:)
I did not want them to obey me because I was THE parent or authority! I wanted them to learn obedience to authority so they would have authority some day!
I wanted them to learn obedience FOR THEM...so they would be empowered as they matured to become OBEDIENT TO THE UNENFORCEABLE!
I wanted them to learn obedience not so they would be subservient, but so they would understand SERVANT-LEADERSHIP!
I wanted them to learn obedience so they would establish RULES TO LIVE BY...that would lead them to success!
I wanted them to learn obedience because I wanted them to believe that SELF-DISCIPLINE leads to SELF-MASTERY!

I wanted them to learn obedience to Biblical Principles so they would live by those Principles and not their Preferences!
I wanted them to learn obedience so they would more readily OBEY GODS WORD...which would be a lamp unto their feet and a light unto their pathway!
Jesus said, “blessed (happy, favored by God) are those who hear the word of God and continually observe it.”” - Luke 11:28 AMP
