Glorify God.
Obedience’s aim is to honor and display God’s character (1 Corinthians 10:31; Romans 11:36). It is not primarily to gain human recognition (Matthew 6:1), to secure prosperity, or to earn God’s favor — salvation and favor are by grace, not by our works (Ephesians 2:8–9). Obedience flows from love and gratitude toward God (John 14:15) and points others to Him.
