In chapter 2 we learned about developing or growing our spirit man. As our spirit (the real us) grows we can bring our mind, emotions, will, and body in line with the Word of God.
Step 1 : Meditate on the Word of God.
It sounds simple but it takes discipline
Step 2: Put the Word into practice
In other words, take the knowledge found in the Word of God and apply it to your life in order to change. After reading the scriptures, we will only have knowledge if we do not allow it to change our behavior and the way we think. Knowledge is power only when we practice or apply it with action.
“But don’t just listen to God’s Word. You must do what it says, otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.”
"Being doers of the Word" is not about what we don't do, it's about what we do! Going to church and just reading our Bible is not enough. We have to put it into practice, we have to let it change us.
"I am so glad God has something better for us than an occasional blessing. This faith life is an entire way of life." - Kenneth E. Hagin (The Human Spirit p.40)
Put it into practice today!
Turn worry into praise
Turn grumbling into thankfulness
Turn trials into triumphs
I am so grateful that life with Jesus is greater than anything I could ever imagine!
