God has given us his Word, to read and put it into practice in our lives. It can save our lives and give us abundant life. If we pay attention and obey, blessings from God will flow to us. He doesn’t want us to merely acquire knowledge but to get low to the ground, teachable, allowing it to correct our direction and change, leading us into true freedom. The Word applied makes your life poetry that blesses others.
So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the word God has planted in your hearts, for it has the power to save your souls. But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like. But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it. (James 1:21-25 NLT)
