When God asks you to obey Him, do you say yes to appease Him or to please Him? Are you obeying just to satisfy God, or are you obeying Him because you love Him and want to bless Him with your life? Do you believe that if you do something for God, that you would be earning a favour from Him? These are the questions that our passage leads us to reflect upon.

God reminds us that in order to truly please Him, we are to be 7-Day Worshippers that offer our whole selves to Him. The Good News of the Bible is that we are not saved by our ability to please Him, for if that were true, we would all be damned. Rather, we are saved by Christ, who not only died for our sin, but resurrected and reigns as our King, who demands that we repent of our God-appeasing and, by the power of the Holy Spirit, live as 7-Day worshippers, for His glory and for our joy.
