Obedience To God – 1

John 14:15

“If you love me, keep my commands.

Luke 6:46

“Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’  and do not do what I say?

Romans 6:16

Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey —whether you are slaves to sin,  which leads to death,  or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?

Matthew 7:21

Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’  will enter the kingdom of heaven,  but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

James 1:22

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says

Isaiah 1:19

If you are willing and obedient,
 you will eat the good things of the land;

Joshua 1:8

Keep this Book of the Law  always on your lips;  meditate  on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.

1 Samuel 15:22

But Samuel replied:

  “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
 as much as in obeying the Lord?
 To obey is better than sacrifice,
 and to heed is better than the fat of rams.

Ephesians 6:5-9

Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect  and fear, and with sincerity of heart,  just as you would obey Christ.    Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ,  doing the will of God from your heart.   Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people,    because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do,  whether they are slave or free.

    And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that he who is both their Master and yours  is in heaven, and there is no favouritism  with him.
