1 John 2:3–6
3 "By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments. 4 The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him; 5 but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him: 6 the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked."

Obedience is a fruit of salvation and a means of assurance.  The reason is because obedience indicates that God's love has been perfected in us.  Genuine love for God only occurs in us when we are indwelt by the Holy Spirit, and genuine love always produces obedience.  Ask God to help you love Him more.
