Ecclesiastes 2:26 NLT‬‬ God gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy to those who please Him. But if a sinner becomes wealthy, God takes the wealth away and gives it to those who please Him. This, too, is meaningless—like chasing the wind.

When we please God, we get access to benefits such as, wisdom, knowledge, and joy. Wisdom and knowledge becomes useful when we don’t know what do. God’s wisdom and knowledge is downloaded in our natural mind to help in that situation.

Joy is a constant benefit when life gets challenging. Instead of wallowing in self-pity or becoming depressed, we can tap into our joy. We can think about all the wonderful things He’s done for us and all the wonderful things we can expect and receive joy.

The final benefit of pleasing God according to this scripture is wealth. Regardless of what some people think about believers having wealth, it’s a documented promise of God. The sinner’s wealth will be given to those who please God. How will this happen? Only God knows. We’re not responsible for knowing how it will happen. Our responsibility is to believe that the sinner’s wealth has been made available through Jesus.

Praise God for the benefits we receive for pleasing Him.
