To Make God Happy We Must Give Him Priority

In the beginning, God’s relationship with mankind was displayed in the garden of Eden. The fall of man-caused God to be removed from him. Yet his love is manifested through the Bible.

The Lord first showed his love to mankind and afterward, the man loved him (1 John 4:19). Moses asked his people to love their Lord with all their hearts, mind, and soul (Deuteronomy 6:5). If people love anything more than God then this is a sinful act in the sight of God.

The people of Israel were commanded to love their God so they may keep his words and obey him (Deuteronomy 11:1).

After the death of Moses, Joshua became the leader and he reminded his people to love God and obey all of his ways. They were told to put God in order to receive blessings and guidance from him (Joshua 22:5).

God demanded his people to love and seek him so that they hate evil and understand how to live to overcome their enemies (Psalm 97:10).

To Make God Happy We Need To Love Our Neighbours

The Bible does not encourage to take revenge but it teaches its readers to love their neighbors by forgiving their mistakes (Leviticus 19:18).

God knows everything and he is always looking at us whether we are obeying him or not (Matthew 19:19).

Jesus told his disciples to preach the Gospel to the world for the salvation of people. It is important for every believer to be concerned about the evangelism of the gospel which has the power to redeem people from eternal separation (Mark 16:15).

We Must Obey His Words

God would be pleased if we obey all of his words and keep them in our hearts. God likes to see his people walk in his commandments and they will be blessed while they stay in his words (1 John 3:22).

In the beginning, while Peter and the rest of the apostles preached the gospel they faced severe opposition from the Jews leaders. They did not give up the task that Jesus gave them to do. They boldly announced that they will obey God instead of hearing the words of those simple men who have no authority over man’s salvation (Acts 5:29).

We Should Give Our Efforts In Knowing Him

God loves people who seek him throughout their lives and always walk with him (Proverbs 8:17). God knows the effect if a man does not seek him and obey him in his life. He will easily be deceived by the world and finally, he will be destroyed.

God does not want his people to perish. He wants to give us peaceful life and he also wants us to search for him as long as we live here. We are not worthy to fight our battle alone. We must seek his strength to get the victory (Psalm 105:4).

God Is Happy When We Forgive Others

Share Your Things To Others To Please God

One becomes a new creation after receiving Christ and he gains the new man which is created in the righteousness of God. He should share his things with others who are in need. Christ makes him share his belonging with others by doing such sacrificial acts he can please God (Hebrews 13:16).

Jesus teaches his followers to have a mind to share their things with others as we all are equal in God’s sight., there must not be any division that can cause division (Luke 3:11).

We can make God happy by giving our things to the poor. This act of giving results in us getting back more blessings from God (Proverbs 19:17).

After the ascension of Jesus, his disciples and other followers gathered together in prayers and they brought their belonging and they had everything in common ( Acts4:32).

We Need To Fear God

God does not feel happy with the things of this world but he pleases when his people fear him and honor him. God loves to see fear in the hearts of his people as he is their creator and protector (Psalm 147:10-11).

A man who fears God gets wisdom that leads him to get everlasting life. On the other hand, a fool rejects God’s wisdom and ways by living a careless life to the Lord (Proverbs 1:7).

The reason God wants his people to fear him is that will help them to stay away from evil and makes them humble before the Lord. They will be aware of sinful natures which can lead in the wrong direction (Proverbs 8:13).

God knows what we need and he seeks us to rely on him by fearing him and it helps us to avoid sins and death which Satan brings in our lives to destroy us (Proverbs 14:27).

Jesus says to his disciples to fear the Lord as he has the authority to destroy both soul and body (Matthew 10:28).

God is merciful and he pours out his blessing from generation to generation who fear God (Luke 1:50).

A man would be called God’s friend if he fear the Lord and he will understand the covenant that God makes with him. It is impossible to know the plan of God until we fear him and come closer to him (Psalm 25:14).
