The Reward of Living God’s Way
Life involves experiencing detours, triumphs, and challenges. Just showing up isn't enough. If you really want to achieve God’s level for your life, you must participate in His plan by drawing near, striving for greater, and giving Him your full attention. God doesn’t just call us to draw near for His own benefit. Drawing near to God is a bold lifestyle of victory. It is precisely the nature of the journey and your willingness to continue putting one foot in front of the other to attain God’s level for your life.
Living God’s way isn’t an exercise in rhetoric or religion - it's a path to great reward.
A reward is a prize, an honor, a gift, a blessing. The reward is a confirmation that God always keeps His best reserved for you. As you faithfully obey His instructions and diligently seek him, you receive a triumph in victory. That’s a guarantee. It’s not magic or luck. It’s hope and trust. Your hope in Him is a confident expectation in the promises of God. Your trust in Him says that you will keep your faith working in action. He rewards those who keep trying. He rewards those who never give up.
Nothing is authorized to stop you from obtaining your reward. However, sometimes God demands an act of obedience before He releases a reward. Obedience is a discipline - it's the discipline to live God’s way knowing that His way is a much better choice than anything else. The discipline of obedience calls you to pray, worship and rejoice as His standard requires.
When God sets a level for you, He expects that you obey Him, align with His word, and trust in Him to give you supernatural ability to accomplish what He’s asked of you. It doesn’t really matter what happens in the world. It doesn’t matter what culture tries to create or dictate. It doesn’t even matter if you have let the wrong ideas influence your decisions. The natural realm is no problem for God. The level He has reserved for you still exists. The desires He has for you have not changed. The promise He kept to you has not expired. The breakthrough He has planned is upon arrival. The reward He has for you remains in waiting.
Leveling up - whether in your career, your personal life, or even your spiritual walk - is no longer solely your doing. When God moves in, you are no longer dependent on your own talents, skills, or abilities. What He needs is for you to believe and make yourself available to Him, and when you do so, His power performs what you cannot. The more you abide in God’s Word and in His presence, the more you will hear His voice and become more victorious in every area of life.
Because we are in Christ, the victory is assured. And, so is breakthrough.
Are you ready to experience the rewards of living God’s way?
We can decide that we want to look more like culture, or more like God. Let’s begin living on a God’s level by allowing God to empower us from His heavenly supply and to accomplish infinitely in us more than we might ask or think.

Spend time meditating on these scriptures:
Job 22:28
Amos 9:13-15
Hebrews 11:6
Matthew 25:23
Colossians 3:23-24
Answer these questions and reflect on your answers:
- What rewards have you experienced from intentionally living God’s way?
- In what ways have you experienced resistance in a breakthrough? How did a victory ultimately show up for you?
- What are you believing for God at the moment? In what ways are you preparing to reach His level for you?
Affirm and declare these statements:
Everything I’m bold about God blesses.
I accept the authority to declare victory.
I am divinely favored for the level God has reserved for me.
Pray in petition to God to pursue His will and way.
