“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only…” (James 1:22a).
We can hear, read, and believe the Word. It’s vital we stay in the Word. However, as we saturate our souls with the Word, we should be prompted to “be a doer of the word.” We should feel rejuvenated and spring into action. If we just sit and soak in the Word, we risk developing spiritual atrophy.
Last month we learned the importance of sitting at God’s table for nourishment. However, too many people develop atrophy by sitting too long at His table. I love the song, “My House Is Full” that sadly states, “no one wants to work in My field.” Push away from the table. It’s time to be a doer.
