OBEYING GOD’S WORD

Deuteronomy 31:12—Reading, memorizing, and meditating upon the Word of God are of no value without obeying the Word of God. To obey the Word of God, we do what the Word of God indicates should be done in any situation. Obeying the Word of God is how we can please God in the new life. Obedience to God’s Word results in: being treasured by God (Ex. 19:5); blessedness (happiness) in life (Ps. 119:2); not being ashamed (Ps. 119:4–6); understanding (Ps. 119:100); avoidance of evil (Ps. 119:101); guidance for life (Ps.119:105); safety and freedom from anxiety (Prov. 1:33); life (Prov. 19:16; Ezek. 18:19; John 8:51); God’s blessing (Is. 1:19); greatness in the kingdom of heaven (Matt. 5:19); bearing fruit for God (Matt. 13:23); manifesting love for God (John 14:23; 1 John 2:5); promise of God’s presence (John 14:23; 2 John v. 9); abiding in the love of God (John 15:10); evidence of the doctrine that has been taught (Rom. 6:17); assurance of salvation (1 John 2:3); eternal life (1 John 2:17); dwelling in God (1 John 3:24); love of God’s children (1 John 5:2); and entrance into heaven (Rev. 22:7).
