those who love God.
From early on His relationship with the Israelites God commanded them to love Him. All believers follow the same directives.
And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. Deuteronomy 6:5
Worship God—respect, love, honor.  Even part of the Ten Commandments includes honoring God.
You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments. Exodus 20:3-6 NASB
God loves those who love Him. Showing lovingkindness. Lovingkindness

The LORD is gracious and merciful; slow to anger and great in lovingkindness. Psalm 145:8 NASB
In the New Testament Jesus is challenged about which was is the most important commandment.
"Teacher, which is the most important commandment in the law of Moses?" Jesus replied, "'You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments." Matthew 22:36-40
Love God, your neighbor and yourself. Love is the key to life. Do you love God?

Prayer ~ Lord God, Make Your face to shine upon Your servant; Save me in Your lovingkindness. Psalm 31:16 NASB. How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! And the children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings. Psalm 36:7 NASB. I praise and love You, Lord.
