HEARING AND DOING
Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like (James 1:22-24).
Anyone who hears the word preached, who reads or studies the word: but does not apply the word or incorporate the word into actions; the Bible says that person is engaging in self-deception and is like one who observes his face in a mirror with just a fleeting glance and soon forgets what he looks like. May I say child of God; that God's word is not going to have any impact or transforming power in your life if it is not acted upon. My prayer is that you and I will put into practice through the power of the Holy Spirit; the light that the Lord gives us. Let our lives bring glory and praise to Him and Him alone. Thank you Lord Jesus for your wonderful grace; amen.
