Godliness

Godliness is reverence towards God and a life lived in obedience to Him.

1. Godliness requires recognition of God. “Know that the Lord Himself is God; it is He who has made us, and not we ourselves” (Psalm 100:3, nasb).

2. Godliness requires an awareness of God and His control.

“The Lord God says, ‘I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go. I will counsel you with My eye upon you” (Psalm 32:8)

Jesus said, “I am with you always.” (Matthew 28:20, nasb).

3. Godliness demands obedience to God. The example of Jesus who said, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work” (John 4:34,nasb).
