How Should God’s People Live Each Day?
They Should Live Like Jesus...
by loving God most of all!
Jesus loved God with all His heart. There was no one Jesus loved more than God. And Jesus didn’t just feel love in His heart for God. He lived it out. He obeyed God’s laws. He loved God by pleasing God with everything He did. He pleased God with the thoughts in His mind. He pleased God with every word that He said. He pleased God in everything that He did. God helps His people to love Him like that, too. He wants them to love Him more than anyone or anything else—just like Jesus did. He wants them to love Him by obeying Him—just like Jesus did. He promises to help them to love and obey Him more and more, by His Holy Spirit working inside their hearts.
Scripture Verse: Deuteronomy 6:4-5
“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.”
Israel is the name of God’s special people long ago. God wanted them to love Him most of all. How could they do that? By loving Him with all their heart, all their soul and all their strength. God wants His people to do that today! That’s always the best way to love God most.
