Obeying God

God is sequential and orderly in nature so when he communicates with us, he remains consistent with this nature. When he asks something of us, he leads us down a sequential path to get to the obedience he is looking for. Not because of something he wants but for our best in life.

God invites us to experience of and with Him --->
Through experience with Him, we grow in love for Him--->
We learn to believe Him because we have a foundation of love --->
Trust grows out of our belief in and of God --->
Trust and belief lead to obedience to God, whatever He asks we will do!

If you love Him, you will obey Him!

Deuteronomy 10:12-13
"What does the LORD you God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to observe the LORD's commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good."
