(1 Samuel 15:22) To obey is better than a sacrifice
(Proverbs 21:3) To carry on righteousness and judgment is more preferable to Jehovah than sacrifice.
(Hosea 6:6) For in loving-kindness I have taken delight, and not in sacrifice; and in the knowledge of God rather than in whole burnt offerings.
(Mark 12:33) This loving [God] with one’s whole heart and with one’s whole understanding and with one’s whole strength and this loving one’s neighbor as oneself is worth far more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
(1 Samuel 15:22) Does Jehovah have as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of Jehovah? Look! To obey is better than a sacrifice

Isn't obedience sacrifice itself? By obeying God's orders, we are sacrificing missing out on certain "pleasures" of this worldly life, but we are assured that these "pleasures" are a sham and just temporary, and we obey God's orders by being ready to sacrifice our wealth and our lives for His sake.

Three names for the same Deity.
God in English
Allah in Arabic
Jehova...in Hebrew? not sure.
Anyway, The Divine Being wants our obedience. He created us, this is the least we can do.

He wants our love and worship. We show and deliver that by ardent Bible study, following in the steps of his Son, Jesus Christ and living by the Law of Christ which replaced the Law of Moses.

I think He wants you to sacrifice yourself to Him...that means to obey and do His will at all times and not watch girls shake their booties and then go back to God and pray.

obedience, but His name is not allah, it is Jehovah, or Yahweh or Jah or the Great I AM
And if you wish to know Him personally, call him Jesus!
