LOVING GOD

By: Pastor Minja Imani
There is something that God wants from you but he cannot force you to do it for you have the freedom of choice. This very thing is the heart of loving him. The heart of loving God is not sacrifice you are offering, it is not carrying the Bible and note book to the Church but it is all about obeying him and keeping his commandments.
Leading word:-



English Standard Version Psalm 91:14-16 “Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” So when we love God with all our hearts (obeying him and following his commandment) he will:-
- Delivers us
- Protects us
- He will answer when we call
- He will be with us in trouble
- He will rescue and honor us
- He will satisfy us and show us his salvation.
There are so many people who obeyed God in the Bible but one example of the men who obeyed God are Shadrack, Meshach and Abidnego. They were able to stand in what they believe and when a King commanded all people to worship the gods, these men were not ready to go against God whom they had trust. A King ordered the arm to cast these men into the fiery furnace, and the Lord appeared to help and support them. (Daniel 3:8-30)

Saul’s disobedience. (1Samwel 15:10-20)
Saul was told to go and destroy the Amalekites with all what they had. But he did not do as he was commanded. God regretted to make Saul a King over Israel. God is the provider and author of everything in the word so he is not surprised with the Sacrifices you are offering him. The only thing that God cares is obedience. Satan is always struggling now and then to break that love you have in God so that you cannot be protected, delivered or answered when you call upon God etc.
==Do not live the life of pretending; love God.==
