We MUST obey His instuctions and guidelines.. If we do, He will bless us more than we can ever imagine!
So you might be wondering, what happens if we don't obey His commands? Well, let's find out...
Disobedience
Lev 26:14 ‘But if you do not obey Me, and do not do all these commands,
Lev 26:15 and if you reject My laws, or if your being loathes My right-rulings, so that you do not do all My commands, but break My covenant,
Lev 26:16 I also do this to you: And I shall appoint sudden alarm over you, wasting disease and inflammation, destroying the eyes, and consuming the life. And you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
Lev 26:17 ‘And I shall set My face against you, and you shall be smitten before your enemies. And those who hate you shall rule over you, and you shall flee when no one pursues you.

Jer 22:5 “But if you do not obey these words, I swear by Myself,” declares יהוה, “that this house shall become a ruin.” ’ ”
Wow! So we can CLEARLY see what YHWH says about disobedience. But He, being a loving El, gives us a choice. I will end with these verses, which sums up what I have been saying...

Jos 24:15 “And if it seems evil in your eyes to serve יהוה, choose for yourselves this day whom you are going to serve, whether the mighty ones which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the mighty ones of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But I and my house,
we serve יהוה!!!”
