J.R. Miller emphasizes the principle that divine strength and blessings are provided in accordance with our daily needs and responsibilities. He explains that God's grace is sufficient for each individual, and that we must take the initiative in our duties, trusting that God will supply the necessary strength and resources as we act in faith. Miller illustrates this through biblical examples, highlighting that blessings often follow our obedience and willingness to begin tasks, even when they seem impossible. He encourages believers to start with what they have, as God will provide the rest, and to trust in His guidance as they navigate life's challenges. Ultimately, the sermon teaches that our faith and action are crucial in receiving God's blessings.

Mary Wilder Tileston emphasizes the importance of obedience to God's commandments, highlighting that regardless of our feelings or enjoyment, we are called to obey God's will for His sake. She encourages stepping out in obedience, trusting that God will provide the necessary disposition along the way. Tileston stresses that obedience is the test of love towards God, not just a matter of emotions, and that striving for good behavior leads to God granting good feelings as a gift.
