“O Lord, God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps his covenant of unfailing love with those who love him and obey his commands…”
"It's true that God is all-powerful, but he doesn't bully innocent people. For the wicked, though, it's a different story—If they obey and serve him, they'll have a good, long life on easy street. But if they disobey, they'll be cut down in their prime and never know the first thing about life. Angry people without God pile grievance upon grievance, always blaming others for their troubles. Living it up in sexual excesses, virility wasted, they die young. But those who learn from their suffering, God delivers from their suffering.

Joyful are those who obey his laws and search for him with all their hearts.
I reflect at night on who you are, O Lord; therefore, I obey your instructions.
“If they listen and obey God, they will be blessed with prosperity throughout their lives. All their years will be pleasant.
So rejoice in the Lord and be glad, all you who obey him! Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure.
Nehemiah 1:5 Job 36:5 Psalm 119:2 Psalm 119:55 Job 36:11 Psalm 32:11
The Spirit of God enables us to obey the Word of God.
