The Word of God is like our spiritual mirror. Scripture is telling us that there are many Christians who look at the Word, and don t do anything about changing our spiritual appearance. Too many people are satisfied with a short glance at the Bible thinking a verse a day will keep the devil away. God wants you to gaze intently into the Word. 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 .
Many people approach the Word of God as tourists.
This is a nice place to visit, but I really don t want to live here. I really don t want to live in the Word. It s great to have a Bible in the house, but to do everything it says, well, that s a different story. If that is your attitude, then you are missing out on the blessings that accompany the believers to act upon the Word of God. Or, many people audit the Word of God like they audit a college course.
