Adore Him (Romans 14:11). 6. Serve Him (1 Thessalonians 1:9; Hebrews 9:14). 7. Turn to Him (Acts 14:15). 8. Long after Him (Psalm 42:2; Psalm 84:2). 9. Hold close to Him (John 6:68, 69). 10. Seek life of Him (John 6:33; John 5:40). 11. Trust in Him (1 Timothy 4:10; 1 Timothy 6:17). 12. Account it a great privilege to be His son (Hosea 1:10; Romans 9:26; Hebrews 12:22). 13. Pervert not His word (Jeremiah 23:36). 14. Never depart from Him (Hebrews 3:12). (W. Gouge.)
