    We can be hearers of the Word and deceive ourselves, or we can be doers of the Word and be blessed. James calls each Christian to be a doer of the Word, receiving the blessing of doing what God commands.

    JAMES 1:22-25 MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL… “Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what ...read more

God’s promises weighed on the balance scales In your mind’s eye, please see a set of balance scales. Balance scales are the type ...read more
