BEING DOERS OF GOD’S WORD

Hello lovely people,
It’s the weekend again and it is time for God’s Word. How has your week been? The fact that you’re alive is a miracle. Have you ever wondered how sometimes we go off guard and follow bad friends or listen to bad advice but when it comes to doing what the Word of God says we tend to ignore it and think we know best. It is amazing how we take God’s Word for granted but He still chooses to love us unconditional. Wow we serve an AWESOME GOD.The Word for  week is titled “Being doers of God’s Word”.

James 1:22-23 states that, “But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror (NIV). 

What is your understanding of this scripture?
The scripture above means that we should not be people who just walk in the surface of the earth with no Spiritual life but we should aim to be like Jesus and focus on building our spiritual life more. It also means that we have to take some actions that can change our lives if we hear the Word of God day in and day out.

What does it mean to be a doer? Being a doer simply means to act upon something you’ve heard or experienced. In other words the scripture is saying that we have to take the Word of God seriously and put it in action. As Christians, the Word of God has to be planted in our hearts for it to bear fruit. We have to keep our minds tuned to God’s Word.

Psalms 119:105 states that, “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path” (NIV). 

Basically, not putting God’s Word in action is like walking in darkness with no lights. So you have to make good use of the lamp to guide your ways and path in your everyday life. It is a great thing to walk with the Word of God. So make that decision and you’ll never regret it.  One way you can be a doer of God’s Word is by making a sober decision anytime you hear God’s word and making sure you walk in it.

I’ll encourage you today to make it a part and parcel of you to keep your mind tuned in to God’s word. Aim to be a doer of God’s word rather than just a hearer.
Hope you were blessed by this. Remember to share and leave comments. Have a great week ahead.
