Read His Word Daily

His Words tell you what to do

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
James 1:22

Scripture Comments: Just listening or reading God’s Word won’t do anything for us. We must obey God’s Word and do what it tells us. We are not just gathering knowledge of the scriptures. Our knowledge should lead us to applying God’s Word to our lives. God’s Word should not only enter our minds but our hearts as well.

Comments: Living our lives as Christ wants assures us that we belong to Him. Our thoughts, actions and attitudes are to show love toward others. Our lives should be lived in a way that honors God. Reading His Word and praying daily keeps us on the right path and in step with His Spirit.
