1 John 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
3:24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. [KJV]
John wrote that God's commandments are to "believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ", and to "love one another". He also wrote that if you keep His commandments, then God will dwell in you. You'll know that God is living in you by the Spirit which God gives to you.
Compare these verses with 1 John 4:7-21.
