The key to God's Heart

by -


John  14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.


 what do you think is the key to God’s heart? Is it humility, perseverance, or faith?,  many of us thought  is praise,  or fervent prayer...  But No

The key to God's Heart is obedience... Jesus explained in verse 23 of the chapter above,  if we say we love God,  then it will be easy for us to keep His words.  This also will draw God's love to us

Obedience is not optional for believers

As a follower of Christ, you have a specific responsibility. Jesus is asking you, just as He asked the apostles, to keep His words. We are to write them on our hearts so as not to sin against God.

Obedience is tied in knowing God and loving Him

I John 2:5 we read, “But if anyone obeys his word, God’s love is truly made complete in Him. This is how we know we are in Him” (NIV)

Obedience Brings Blessing

Note the words, “My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.”

What a blessing to be loved by God the father. What a blessing both the Father and Christ come to abide in the believer in the person of the Holy Spirit. All three live or dwell within believer.

When we obey God, the love of God will enrich us greatly, as there is no such thing as obeying Him and not being blessed. He does not operate that way. Blessing follows obedience.

Your prayer without obedience is a total waist of time and energy

Your praises and worship without obedience is just a disturbing noice

Your giving without obedience is investing in an unprofitable trade.

The only key to God's Heart is Obedience to His words. 

God bless you.
