If there's no desire to please God, you can't please God
no matter how much moral obligations you fulfil as a religious person
instead, one may most likely incur the wrath of God

I read this article which puts it this way
Our readiness or our reluctancy to meditate upon the wrath of God becomes a sure test of how our hearts’ really stand affected toward Him. If we do not truly rejoice in God, for what He is in Himself, and that because of all the perfections which are eternally resident in Him, then how dwelleth the love of God in us? Each of us needs to be most prayerfully on his guard against devising an image of God in our thoughts which is patterned after our own evil inclinations.
