James 1:22 DO the Word You’ve Learned!
James 1:22 “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
I apologize for no studies during the weekend. The weekends are usually extremely busy for me, so I don’t know how often I’ll be able to have them done on the weekends. Let God’s Will be done on that, because we still need to stay in the Word during the weekends of course!
Today, we are reminded of something: to DO the Word of God, and not just HEAR the Word of God and say a big “AMEN!”
Today, instead of a Bible Study, I want to ask that you take what we talked about, regarding reading the Word of God and knowing that Through His Word He will transform you in the way that we know from Romans 12:2 “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Take what we’ve talked about, and do it!
Today, instead of taking time to read a study sent out by me, Take out the Bible and spend perhaps 15 minutes reading the Word of God. If you already spend daily time reading the Word, then go ahead and spend a little more time reading it today (mess with your schedule a little and give God 15 more minutes)!
We’ll continue the studies tomorrow. So today, let’s read the Word of God, instead of just knowing that we should read it. Let’s actually do it today! If you don’t have a Bible, then I’ll give you a link to the Online Bible on my website. If you don’t know what to read, then pray that God show you where! Don’t give in to the lie that the world has said, and sadly many Christians have adopted, that says “If you talk to God, you’re religious. If God talks to you, you’re insane!” Don’t believe the lie that God doesn’t talk to us anymore. If that were true, God is a liar when He says the Holy Spirit will tell us what He says. God is no liar!
So, let’s read the Word of God today, and pray beforehand that God guide you in what you read! Pray that God gives you understanding and wisdom, knowledge and discernment to know what He is saying in His Word! Also, pray that all distractions are kept at bay because I can tell you, don’t be surprised if something happens that will try to keep you from reading the Word of God!
I love all of you and continue to pray for you. I pray that God guides you in all you do in life, and that He blesses the work of your hands! Have a very blessed day today in the Lord and His Word, and I will see you tomorrow!
