The First and Greatest Commandment

Deuterenomy 6:4-9


Israel, remember this! The LORD and the LORD alone - is our God. Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Never forget these commands that I am giving you today.Teach them to your children. Repeat them when you are away, when you are resting and when you are working. Tie them on your arms and wear them, on your foreheads as a reminder. Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates.

As believers this bible verse ought to be a vital part of our daily lives, instead of just 

simply reading and memorizing it we ought to meditate and actually feel each and every 

word wholeheartedly. From experience, I am adamant that LOVE encompasses all. The 

most important of all is to love GOD.  There is an unseen power bestowed upon us when 

we love GOD. Most importantly, when we love GOD in spirit and in truth, then we will be 

able to love others  no matter their characteristics.I feel that this bible verse, carries the 

most weight compared to all verses. It represents the central being of the bible. As 

clarified by 1 Corinthians 13:13 " Meanwhile these three remains, faith, hope and love 

and the greatest of these is Love.
