To Do Or Not To Do? That Is The Question!

All right, it really isn’t a question for the believer. If the believer wants to have a fruitful life he or she will do what the Word says to do.

James 1:22-25 (New King James Version)22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

How is a believer of doer of the Word?

In action and words.

For instance, when the Word says we should tithe we are doers by tithing ten percent of our income to our local church.

Anything less than ten percent is not being a doer.

If the Word says to lay hands on the sick and they will recover but we don’t because “Well, we just don’t do that at our church” we are not being doers.

If the Word says we are blessed or healed but we open up our mouths and say stuff like “Nothing works out for me. I am doomed in this life.” Or “I just have to accept that I will have this disease the rest of my life” we are not being doers.

That is being a doubter.

Abraham was a doer of the Word. Everywhere he went he told folk he was the father of many nations.

Yet, he had no children.

He just believed God when God told him he was the Father of many nations.

Faith and doing go together. When combined we will get the promise manifested in our life.Just like Abraham.
