Day 17: Doers

SCRIPTURE

James 1:22

DEVOTIONAL

In our good and wonderful pursuit of knowing God we can fall into the trap of just stopping there. But knowledge of God is meant to change and transform

us, compelling us to speak and think and live differently. We can’t just hear the message of Jesus and go on with our lives as usual! We must let the word of God change us from the inside out, causing us not to just be hearers of His Word, but doers of His Word as we live it out in our everyday lives. We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus, never of our own doing. But that saving faith now calls us to live each day in pursuit of whatever and wherever God calls us to and freed us for.
