LIVING=THE WORD OF GOD!

 

LIVING=THE WORD OF GOD!

 

Information=is one thing=but

KNOWLEDGE=is something else

 

I ADMIRE=those that

MEMORIZE SCIPTURES=those that KNOW

All the Scriptures=but the real TEST

Is not only knowing=the LIVING WORD

But living=the FULFILLING WORD of God

LIVING THE WORD OF GOD!

 

“Jesus replied’=’rather blessed are those

Who hear the WORD of God

AND OBSERVE IT’”                                                                                                            Luke 11:28

 

WHEN I was in school=I crammed

For tests=I could memorize

ALL THE INFORMATION

 

And I could USE the information

To Pass the test=but information

IS NOT KNOWLEDGE=and knowledge

Is NOT=Living the WORD OF GOD!

 

We must take this information=and knowledge

And put it=INTO PRACTICE=in our lives

By=LIVING=THE WORD OF GOD!

 

It is great=to know

THE TEN commandments of Moses=

The TWO commandments of Jesus=and

The beatitudes=and the BIBLE

 

But are we putting

What is on paper=INTO OUR HEARTS?

Are we putting=THE LIVING WORD of God

Into practice

LIVING=THE WORD OF GOD!

 

“My people have committed

Two sins=they have forsaken me

 

The spring=OF LIVING WATER=and

Have dug their own cisterns

Broken cisterns=That cannot hold water”                                                                                 Jeremiah 2:13

 

“I am =the God of Abraham=

The God of Isaac=and the God of Jacob

 

He is Not=the God

Of the dead=BUT OF THE LIVING”                                                                                         Matthew 22:32

 

“The Lord=will

Indulge his people=it is

A dreadful thing=to fall

Into the hands=of the LIVING GOD”                                                                                       Hebrews 10:31-32

 

It is ONE THING=

To hear SCRIPTURE in Church=or bible studies

Or read it

In our daily prayers

 

Bur are we INTERNALIZING it=are

We DELIGHTING IN IT?=putting it

Into practice=in our lives

LIVING=THE WORD OF GOD!

 

“So you must be careful=to

Do everything they tell you

 

But do not=do what they do

For they do NOT PRACTICE=what

They preach”                                                                                                                               Matthew 23:3

 

“He replied’=’my mother and brothers

Are those who hear God’s word=and

PUT IT INTO PRACTICE”                                                                                                                  Luke 8:21

 

So internalize Moses commandments=and

Jesus’=two commandments OF LOVE=and

 

SAVE some of the verses=of the bible

And the WORD OF GOD=memorize it

But most of all=PUT INTO PRACTICE

 

LIVE=the words of=God’s love

Forgiveness and kindness=with your lives

 

LIVING the word of God=does not just

Come from the head=but it comes

FROM THE HEART TOO=

LIVING=THE WORD OF GOD!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER LIVING=all knowing=Holy Father God!
