Be true to the real You
We have looked at the man in James 1 who forgets what he looks like. Let us now look at the account and rewards of the man who sees himself in God's mirror and does not forget!
James 1:25 (NIV)
But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it — he will be blessed in what he does.
So the journey so far this week has reminded us to look into the mirror of God's Word on a daily basis to discover our true identity and what we are truly capable of from a "God's-eye" view. Then we must have the courage to live out what we learn, and live true to the identity we have found; it is then that our life takes on whole new divine dimensions.
It is then that the Bible promises that we will be blessed in what we do! What a great promise of reward. It does not say blessed in what you do in church but rather blessed throughout the entirety of your life. Why? Because the Bible speaks wisdom and truth to the entirety of your life not just the church-related bit!
So if you want to experience this promised blessing throughout your life always remember to do the four things this verse tells you to:
• Look intently into perfectly fulfilled law that brings freedom.
• Continue to do this and get an appetite for it.
• Don't forget what you have read or discovered.
• DO IT – take it from information to application.
The result: YOU WILL BE BLESSED.
Bless you,
Andy
