We
Shall Love The Lord Our God!
This is an essay that consists of Bible verses from the Book of
Deuteronomy. The first Bible verse that I would like to talk about is in
Deuteronomy 6:5: It says you shall love the Lord your God with all of your
heart, with all of your soul, and with all of your strength. I love the
Lord God so much that I have dedicated my life to Him; by not listening to rap
music. I have dedicated my life to Him by sharing with others about what
the Lord has done for me.
Next, when you love the Lord your God; you are putting to an end the physical,
mental, and social self by submitting to His will. Deuteronomy 8:6 says:
Therefore, you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in His
ways and fear Him. Second, we do this by obeying His word, and placing
our hearts, mind, and soul to Him.
We
have to submit to God by hearing His voice through prayer and reading His
word. We also have to submit to His will in our lives by giving up the
things that we have done in our life. Deuteronomy 11:13 says: And it
shall be that if you earnestly obey my commandments which I command you today,
to love the Lord your God and serve Him with all of your heart, and with all of
your soul.
Third, we do this by loving Him in the same way He loved us. We also
demonstrate this same love for God to other people in our lives.
According to Deuteronomy 11:22: For if you carefully keep all these
commandments which I command you to do- to love the Lord your God, to walk in
all of His ways, and to hold fast to Him. Fourth, we serve Him; is we love Him.
We do this by walking after the Lord your God and fear Him, and keep His
commandments, and obey His voice; you shall serve Him and hold fast to Him.
Deuteronomy 13:4.
This
means that we have to fear the Lord God, our Creator, and His son Jesus Christ.
We are not supposed to fear mortal man because man was created from the dust of
the ground according to Genesis 2:7. In order to live in the spirit, we
have to be born again.
