Someone has said, "We can have God's Rule or we can have mob rule." For we know that God's commands through Jesus Christ are not arbitrary. Our hearts yearn to be founded and grounded in Jesus by the Power of the Holy Spirit or else we have nothing.
So our focus is: 1.) we express God's love for us in Christ Resurrected. In Jeremiah 33:3 and Matthew 7:7-8 we are told that each and every time we call for the Lord's help He will assuredly answer. 2.) our sins are exposed to us through Christ's Light of Love within our consciences. sin may try to trip us, break us, tease us and yet the armor of Christ's Holiness and the spoken Scriptures block the tempter's taunts. 3.) we choose Christ's love as highest. Believe in your heart and you will receive. Mark 11:24 directs us to go to Jesus in prayer asking and them expect His clear answer for He always answers.
Former President Ronald Regan used to say, "What happens in your house is more important than what happens in the White House." And when our hearts are foundationally in Jesus Christ then our house and those in it are truly blessed by Christ.
... and it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. I do not nullify the grace of God; for if justification comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing. Galatians 2:20-21
