Scripture reading: “But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.” James 1:22 NLT
God’s Word is not merely for hearing, but for living. Today’s Scripture challenges us to remember that true faith requires action—transforming what we hear into how we live.
Take some time today to reflect: How deeply has God’s word shaped my life this year? Are the truths I hear on Sundays becoming part of how I live daily? Is there a specific area where God is calling me to step into greater obedience?
Obedience is not just about following rules, it’s about trusting God’s wisdom and love. When we choose to obey God, we invite His presence and power into our lives, bringing transformation.
When we commit to follow His ways, we align ourselves with His will, finding peace and fulfillment in the process. Recommitting to obedience doesn’t have to feel overwhelming—it’s about responding to God’s love each day.
Challenge: Think of one area where you have felt God nudging you toward deeper obedience. It might be in relationships, stewardship, forgiveness, or service. Write down a specific action step and practice obedience this week by acting on what you wrote. Watch as God moves through your small steps of faith.
