Obedience
John 14:15-17
"If you love Me, keep My commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give
you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever-- 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot
receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be
in you.
NKJV
2 John 6
And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the
beginning, his command is that you walk in love.
(NIV)
Job 36:11
If they obey and serve Him, They shall spend their days in prosperity, And their years in
pleasures.
NKJV
1 Sam 15:22-23
"Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
as much as in obeying the voice of the LORD?
To obey is better than sacrifice,
and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination,
and arrogance like the evil of idolatry.
(NIV)
