_*Exhortation Pills: Hear, O Israel!*_ _✍️ By Rev. Stephen Dadedzi_ _🗓️ Day 143 (23/May/2025)_ > ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭Deuteronomy 6:4-5 NKJV Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Deuteronomy 6:4-5 was spoken by Moses to the people of Israel as they prepared to enter the Promised Land. This command was not just a call to obedience but an invitation into deep, covenantal love with the one true God. It reminded Israel of God's uniqueness and required their complete devotion in response to His faithfulness. *1. Love God with all your heart:* To love God with all your heart means giving Him the throne of your spirit. It's choosing Him above all affections and loyalties. In a world full of distractions, our heart must beat for God first (Proverbs 4:23). *2. Love God with all your soul:* Our soul is the essence of who we are—our mind, will, and personality. Loving God with all your soul means aligning your identity and purpose with His will. It’s a daily surrender to live not just for ourselves, but for His glory (Matthew 16:25-26). *3. Love God with all your strength:* This speaks to loving God with our abilities, energy, and resources. It's about giving your best effort to serve Him—not in mere words, but through action. Whether it’s in work, ministry, or relationships, we honor God when we pour ourselves into what He calls us to do (Colossians 3:23-24). _🙏 Prayer:_ Lord, help me to love You with all my heart, soul, and strength. May my entire being reflect my devotion to You. Teach me to hear You, obey You, and walk in the fullness of Your love every day. In Jesus' name, Amen. _✝️ Are You Saved?_ Enjoy God's gift of eternal life by accepting Jesus Christ into your heart today. Believe that God raised Him from the dead and confess Him as your Lord and Savior (John 3:16, Romans 10:9-10). _👉 Connect and explore more:_ https://linktr.ee/stephendadedzi _☕ Want to show some love?
