Open Heaven For Teens 19th May 2025 Daily Devotional Message By Pastor E.A Adeboye And Pastor (Mrs) Folu Adeboye
TOPIC: Do The Word
MEMORISE
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
James 1:22
READ: James 1:21-25
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Open Heaven For Teens 19th May 2025 MESSAGE
Your attitude towards the word of God matters a lot. When it comes to listening to the word of God, there can only be two categories of people – those who listen and do the word and those who listen but do nothing. Whenever you hear the word of God, particularly the one that convicts you of any wrong attitude, rather than reason it out, act on it immediately. Once I hear a word that touches me, I act on it immediately.
Some years ago, I attended Bible study, and my Father in the Lord said that worldly music invites evil spirits into a home. After the service, I rushed home, packed all the worldly music records I had, and destroyed them immediately. I cut off every link with evil spirits in my home.
A prompt response to His word is what God expects from His children. The Bible says that when you hear God’s word and do not act on it, you are only deceiving yourself. Also, the blessings of God are on those who do the word, not those who only listen to it. Henceforth, hear and do God’s word always so that you can be blessed.
KEY POINT
Only those who listen and act on the word of God get the blessings in God’s word.
