Deuteronomy 13:4–"It is the Lord your God you must follow, and Him you must revere. Keep His commands and obey Him; serve Him and hold fast to Him."
Quite plainly, this is a direct command for us to follow, to revere, and to obey God. It is unequivocal and clear; there is no ambiguity. We are called, all of us, to a life of obedience and reverence, that we would live a life deferent and penitent to the Holy Lord is the goal for every believer. Needless to say, this verse would be altogether impossible to accomplish if not for the indwelling, empowering presence of the Holy Spirit. Because of this truth, we should be ever praying that God would empower us so that we could commit to loving the Lord completely and with reverence.
