Serve God and He will bless you
To walk in the ways He has prepared is to do His will

There, in Exodus, chapter 23 and in verse 25 and 26, says the Lord of hosts: "And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless your bread and your water: and I will take away the infirmities from the midst of you. that I shall not abhor nor be barren in thy land: the number of thy days I will do. " This is a law, and it is not of the law, but of God. Our bread and our water are blessed when we serve the Lord, and this applies not only to pastors but to all. And you are wondering, "But how do I serve the Lord?" It is easy, to walk in the ways He has prepared, to do His will.
It does not have to be with the way you dress, but the way you live with God, how you behave in the face of situations, believing that God is with you, or lamenting that you have no way out.
We see an example of submission, there Matthew, chapter 21 and verse 28 and 29, says the Lord: "But what do you think?" A man had two sons, and addressing the first, he said: Son, go to work today in my vineyard. "He replied," Yes, sir, but it was not. "He responded positively, but failed, and probably made up several excuses. But the second son answered, "But he answered and said, I will not: but afterward he came to repentance," Matthew 21:29. He did not have the appearance of a servant, but he who was the true servant. And the Lord said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots go before you into the kingdom of God, Matthew 21 : 31. What is serving God? It is to do His will, to let go of your own desire, to follow what the Lord has asked for. And if you are wondering, but how publicans and harlots will be saved? They will not be by their attitudes, but by their heart turned to God. The moment you accept Jesus as the only one and savior of your life, everything becomes new. As it was with Zacchaeus.
