The way to live for our God and Father Yehovah is to obey the words He gave to the lord Messiah Jesus to give to us! That is what we are to do, in order to live for Yehovah.
IF we believe in the one whom Yehovah sent, and repent, and are baptized [totally immersed] in the water; showing that we are dying to self and coming up out of the water, as new creations in the Messiah, filled with his spirit to enable us to walk in covenant obedience to the words His God and Father gave to him to give to us.
Now what words are the most important for us to do?
Well the simplicity of the Messiah Jesus is to obey his creed, as given in Mark 12:28-34. We are to love Yehovah Elohim - God with all our being and to love our neighbor as ourselves; which we can only do as enabled by His indwelling Spirit.
Along with this we are to behave as those who have been grafted into the true Israel [Romans 11] and are to be witnesses - reflections as those who have been born in the image of Yehovah, both physically and spiritually, reflecting His nature. We can do this In the same way that the Messiah Jesus did as the outshining of the nature of His God and Father. We can do this as sons of God, who have been placed into the household of Yehovah.
This is how we live for our God and Father Yehovah, doing as the Messiah Jesus did, being witnesses about the coming kingdom of God; which will begin when Yehovah sends His son down to take his place on the throne of David at Zion. Then we who have been resurrected at his return will join with him as immortal sons and daughters; as co-rulers and co-inheritors with him, who is our elder brother, who showed us the way, the truth and the life and light of his God and Father that we should emulate to all the people we come in contact with!
IF we are filled with the indwelling power of Yehovah's Spirit and the Spirit of the Messiah Jesus we will reflect the glory of God and His uniquely begotten son Jesus by obeying the words and commands that Yehovah gave Jesus to give for us to do! That is how we live in covenant faithfulness to our God and Father Yehovah.
