ACT THE WORD
“Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock”
Matthew 7:24 (NKJV)
The final phase of working the Word (before experiencing manifestation) is taking steps.
When people read their Bibles, they assume as they have read they will just act on it and experience results. They feel disappointed when they don’t see themselves acting the word consistently and also not seeing results.
This is why I used a week to explain to you the process of internalizing the Word through meditation.
The Word of God is not supposed to be an external law which demands your obedience. Your true obedience of the Word must be an organic expression of the Word.
The Word must be transfused into your heart as an inward law or disposition.And this is achieved through effective meditation of the Word.
Just as you will see in
Joshua 1:8 —
“And the book of this law shall not depart out of thy mouth, and thou shalt meditate in it day and night, that thou mayest know how to do all the things that are written in it; then shalt thou prosper, and make thy ways prosperous, and then shalt thou be wise” (Brenton Septuagint Translation).
And also see Deuteronomy 17:19 —
“And it shall be with him and he shall read it all the days of his life, so that he may learn to fear [and worship] the LORD his God [with awe-filled reverence and profound respect], by carefully obeying (keeping foremost in his thoughts and actively doing) all the words of this law and these statutes.”(Amplified Bible)
Meditation of the Word activates in you the ability to do the Word.
The more conscious you are, the more you develop the capacity to do the Word.
It is like a man who looks into a mirror and clings to or keeps the reality of the image he sees and doesn’t forget. Such a person does not struggle to act out the Word.
“And remember, it is a message to obey, not just to listen to. So don’t fool yourselves. For if a person just listens and doesn’t obey, he is like a man looking at his face in a mirror; as soon as he walks away, he can’t see himself anymore or remember what he looks like. But if anyone keeps looking steadily into God’s law for free men, he will not only remember it but he will do what it says, and God will greatly bless him in everything he does.” James 1:22-25 (TLB)
When you receive a word that “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want”.
You meditate on it, until your thoughts are saturated and soaked by it. It becomes your conviction, consciousness, confession, confidence and capacity. You then take decisions and steps according to the Word.
No matter the situation you find yourself, or the project you have to undertake, you will not be afraid. You know you will enjoy divine supply and divine help, because the Lord is your Shepherd.
Beloved, as you spend time to meditate on the Word, take steps as you are inspired by the Lord.
Be a doer of the Word.
Hallelujah!
