James 1:22-"Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 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.
Knowledge without application/obedience to God leads to pride, self righteousness, and boasting. Wisdom can be misused if it is not use for the purposes of and for God,just like wad Solomon did. Godly wisdom is doin wad God wants us to do thru da knowledge of His Word and thru daily conversation and listening to Him, knowing about God and knowing God. A person who listens but do not do them is like a FOOL! A bit harsh here but dat's the truth. The law brings judgement but thru Christ there is freedom. It is when we start obeying Him, den only will we be able to live life to the fullest and havin da peace dat surpass all understanding.
A daily struggle dat all of us are facing including myself to live up to da expectation of God, to love Him, to love others, to do His work which He has started and now dat has been passed on to us. Thankin Him for da help and thru the enabling of the power of the Holy Spirit dat is working in us to do His work and changing us from glory to glory. Not by my might nor by my strength but He who works in Me. THE ONE who is in me is greater than "the one" who is in the world.
2 Corinthinans 3:18-" And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which come from the Lord, who is the Spirit".
To God forever be praised, honoured n glorified!!!
