Obeying God

by | Sep 27, 2025 | Faith, Obedience, Trust

If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

(John 14:15 ESV)

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

(Isaiah 1:19 ESV)

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

(Luke 6:46 ESV)

Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.

(John 14:23 ESV)

What does it mean to obey God? According to AI Overview,  “Obeying God means recognizing His authority, choosing to follow His rules and commands, and living in alignment with His will, often driven by love, trust, and a desire for a meaningful relationship with Him. This includes attentive listening to divine instruction, faithfully responding to it, and structuring one’s life and actions according to His principles, which are seen as higher and more beneficial than one’s own. In Christianity, it’s also about following the teachings and example of Jesus, even through sacrifice, to please God and to walk in faith.”

Do you listen and obey God? I try to, but I slip up every now and then. But the good thing is, when I do slip up, God forgives me. And He will you too. So the next time you slip up, repent. God will forgive you. So listen closely for God’s instructions and then obey Him.

Have a blessed day, everyone.
