Jesus want you to receive him into your heart.
Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

You should do everything that He told us to do in the Bible. But I'm assuming you want to know what His will is for your life. If so, the best thing to do is to pray on a REGULAR basis asking Him to guide you. And I strongly encourage you to read the book, "The Purpose Driven Life" by Rick Warren. That book has helped a lot of people know the Lord's will for their life.
Hope this helps you a bit. Take care, and God bless you.

Hm...
Well, for starters, when He said to obey My Word, he was referring to the Bible, and doing this would include attempting to keep the ten commandments and the new commandments (i.e. love thy neighbor as thyself, love God with all your Heart, with all Your Mind, and with all your strength (order I'm not too sure on...)
To follow Him would mean to follow His example of love, compassion, and forgiveness...
These are just a few ideas...I'm no pastor and so I won't even attempt to cover all these statements mean...
But I hope I was of some help.

His words are enshrined in the Bible.
You should obey his advice in the scriptures as the situation demands.
This is what U shd do.
