  • A commonly applied passage, indicating the nature of God to give direction when a person is in obedience is Genesis 24:27, "And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master's brethren." The context is the story of Eliezer, Abraham's servant, who, received special direction and answer to prayer after having traveled far in search of a wife for Abraham's son, Isaac.
  • As to God's ability to prove Himself only when a person is obedient, I do not believe you will find a text that indicates this.
  • However, there are several passages that show God's nature to respond powerfully when His people obey. One such verse is Malachi 3:10, "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it." in which God promises special blessing to the Old Testament saints who obey the tithing commands.
  • In summary, God can, and often does, prove Himself to the unsuspecting, disobedient person, e.g. Balaam of Numbers 22. It is, however, His nature to provide special proofs of Himself to those who are living according to His laws.
