 Text:
```Deuteronomy 28:2‭-‬6 KJV
and all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God. Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field. Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.```
 
COMMENTARY
Have you seen anyone who diligently hearkened to the voice of God overtaken by evil? Throughout generations and all ages, God has always been faithful and abiding to His promises. His words is yes and Amen. Blessings run after and overtake everyone who truly and sincerely surrendered to the will of God. The trying times could be tough, tearing and wearing, however God does not owe any man. He is a rewarder.

To hear God’s voice we must belong to God. Jesus said, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me” (John 10:27). Those who hear God’s voice are those who belong to Him—those who have been saved by His grace through faith in the Lord Jesus. These are the sheep who hear and recognize His voice, because they know Him as their Shepherd. If we are to recognize God’s voice, we must belong to Him.

We hear His voice when we spend time in Bible study and quiet contemplation of His Word. The more time we spend intimately with God and His Word, the easier it is to recognize His voice and His leading in our lives. Employees at a bank are trained to recognize counterfeits by studying genuine money so closely that it is easy to spot a fake. We should be so familiar with God’s Word that when someone speaks error to us, it is clear that it is not of God. _Hebrews 4:2 (KJV) For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it._

Food for thought: Heartening to God causes blessings to overtake us but disobedience to God bring people into slavery and bondage.

Prayer: ```Lord give me the grace to obey your voice always in Jesus name.```
