"Be A Man of Your/The Word"

“Be A Man of Your/The Word”

Blessings folk!

Most of the Body of Christ today would agree that it is Him that we live, move and have our very being.

Their actions, activities, focus…worship…would declare otherwise.

Most of the Body of Christ worship gods of gold, silver, stone, works/deeds…etc.

Oh, they think they are “doing the work of the Lord”, but they are not.

We know that the god this world blinds…

2Co 4:3-4
And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing,
in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.


Unbelievers are blinded.

But, what of those who profess to be Believers?
Many are simply not saved.
Therefore they are unbelievers.

Those that are saved are often distracted by the wiles of the evil one.

Here are two strategies of the evil one.

Many Believers are not people of their word.
Too many “Believers” simply do not tell the truth.
They do not keep their word.
I experience such on a regular basis. People making simple promises that will never be done.
Such undermines the individual and the work of the Kingdom.

Many Believers are not people of The Word.
Most Believers would readily profess to believe the Word of God, yet, they do not read/study.
This is especially true of leadership.
Too many “church leaders” do not know the Word.
They act like they do.
They preach like they do.
They teach like they do.
But, they do not.

The Body is greatly harmed by both these strategies.

Be a person of your word.
Be a person of The Word.

Know the Word.
Be the Word.

Jas 1:22
But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.
