Clinging to and Walking with God

May the Lord direct our hearts into the love of Christ and into the steadfastness of Christ. (2 Thessalonians 3:5)

If anyone serves Me, he must [continue to faithfully] follow Me without hesitation, holding steadfastly to Me, conforming to My example in living. And wherever I am [in heaven’s glory], there will My servant be also. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him. (John 12:26) You shall fear [and worship] the LORD your God [with awe-filled reverence and profound respect]; you shall serve Him and cling to Him [hold tightly to Him, be united with Him]. (Deuteronomy 10:20)

My soul [my life, my very self] clings to You; Your right hand upholds me. (Psalm 63:8)

Walking after the LORD our God and fearing [and worshiping] Him [with awe-filled reverence and profound respect], we keep His commandments and listen to His voice, serving Him, and clinging to Him. (Deuteronomy 13:4)

We cling to God by spending time alone with Him studying His word and in His presence in prayer and praise. Departing not from following Him, but keeping His commandments. If you [really] love Me, you will keep and obey My commandments. (John 14:15)

For the [true] love of God is this: that we habitually keep His commandments and remain focused on His precepts. And His commandments and His precepts are not difficult [to obey]. (1 John 5:3)

We will walk [that is, live each and every day] in all the ways which the LORD our God has commanded us, so that we may live and so that it may be well with us, and that we may live long. (Deuteronomy 5:33) Surely the goodness and mercy and unfailing love shall follow us all the days of our life, And we shall dwell forever [throughout all our days] in the house and in the presence of the LORD. (Psalm 23:6) Blessed [happy and sheltered by God’s favor] is everyone who fears the LORD [and worships Him with obedience], Who walks in His ways and lives according to His commandments. (Psalm 128:1) We cling to the LORD our God, just as we have done to this day. (Joshua 23:8)
