Deuteronomy 7:9Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
How do we love God?
First is to believe He is.
Hebrews 11:6
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
That He will reward those who seek Him. That pleases God!
Next is who do you believe God is? His character, attributes. Who is God to you?
Numbers 23:19
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Deuteronomy 4:24
For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.
For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.
(For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
Psalm 46:1
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Psalm 47:7

And there are more. Seek Him, Seek who He is, and Love God.
Thanks for blessing my morning!
