The church asks for many things that might seem odd to non believers. Tithing, chastity, abstaining from alcohol-but asking for obedience is something that many non believers just can't understand. This verse shows that we will get blessings to the same degree that we are obedient, with the most obedient getting the greatest amount of blessings.
I do not claim to be the most obedient Christian/Mormon. In fact, I'm hardly going to win awards for my non questioning subordinate attitude. Many times I can't turn off the curiosity or my constant questioning. Believe me, I wish I could just "shut up and obey". My life would have been much easier.
