Sunday Re-cap (12th March 2006)

Be Doers of the Word
By Ps. Dennis Balan

James 1:19 -27 ~ Be quick to listen attentively to the Word of God and be doers of the word of God.
1. Listen with attentive ears.

2. Slow to speak and if you want to speak, speak good things.

3. Slow to become angry. For an angry spirit is not an attentive spirit and you will not be able to listen.
Learn to be patient for uncontrolled anger releases all sorts of words that hinder the hearing of the Word of God.
Prov.16:32 ~ He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, And he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.

4. v.21 Get rid of all filthiness and evil. Take off our dirty garments and put aside. Wax out our ears that we be sensitive and listen to the Word of God.

5. Put into practice the Word of God. Matt. 7:24 “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock.

6. Jer 31:33 - … I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
- Is the Word of God in our hearts transforming and changing us today?
- The word is inseparable and is a part of a Christian. Are we in the WORD?
- Without the WORD we may have salvation but of no power to live a life
pleasing unto God.

Successful life is by reading and obeying (doing) the WORD.

James 1:22But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
When we put into practice the Word of God; God will bless and protect us.
Too many Christians mark their Bible, but their Bible never marks them!
