(Nuggets from Luke 8:21)
Everyone claims to be a CHRISTIAN and a CHILD OF GOD, but only few understand what it really means and have earned that status.
According to Strong’s Concordance, the Greek word for “hear(s)” is ‘akouō’ which means “to be endowed with the faculty of hearing, not deaf, to hear, to attend to, consider what is or has been said, to understand, perceive the sense of what is said, to perceive by the ear what is announced in one's presence, to get by hearing, learn a thing, comes to one's ears, to find out, to give ear to a teaching or to a teacher, to comprehend, or to understand.”
Today's verse enjoins you to CHOOSE to HEAR God’s Word. Choose to give your ear to His TEACHINGS and His way of doing things. Choose to COMPREHEND, UNDERSTAND, and DIGEST His Word daily.
His Word is LIFE, ALIVE, ACTIVE, and OPERATIVE. God’s Word will lead and light your path when you CHOOSE to hear it continually and do what He says.
It's a clarion call to surrender to, listen to, and obey God’s voice. Open your ears, CHOOSE to listen to what God has to say, let His Word lead and guide your life. Choose to believe, trust, rely, and cling to Christ. Trust His way of doing things.
“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” (James 1:22 KJV)
Be doers of the Word. While it is important to hear, understand, and comprehend God’s Word, it is also critical to EXECUTE and OBEY His Word. Hear, honor, and obey His Word.
HEARING is fundamental, but EXECUTION is critical. OBEY GOD'S WORD and put it into practice in every area of your life.
James 2:17 (KJV) declares, “Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.” Apply your works to your faith by living out the precepts found in His Word. Stay focused and obey His voice consistently.
This is HOLINESS CHALLENGE
