Apply The Word For Changes
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness [2 Timothy 3:16].
As a Christian, it’s important that you keep making
progress, and using the Word of God to improve the quality of your personality.
You ought to be able to testify to definite changes in your personality in
recent times, through the application of the Word of God. There should be
something positive and definite that you’ve built into your character or
something negative that you got rid of from your character, by using the Word
of God. Subject yourself to the Word for it to effect changes in your spirit
and in your soul.
The change in your physical body is easy; the focus now is
the change from within. You have a responsibility in building and upgrading
your life with the Word of God; no one can do this for you. There are people who
haven’t changed in ten years. The same things that offended them years ago, are
still offending them now. The same people they disliked years ago are still
disliked today. The same issues they’ve had in the five years are still there.
They’ve neither changed nor grown; that’s sad.
The question to ask is, have such people acquired more
information? Of course, they might have; but they haven’t acted on the
information. They’ve heard and studied the Scriptures but haven’t yielded
themselves to the transforming power of the Word of God to bring about lasting
changes in their personality. It’s not enough to hear or gather scriptural
information; you must act on the Word.
There are those who, when they’re in church, write down
everything that’s being preached and taught. They get tapes and they listen,
but they’re so used to the voice that it doesn’t mean anything to them nor
effect a change in their character. They’ve become too familiar with the Word.
Don’t be that way. Believe in the power and ability of the Word of God to
transform your life from glory to glory. Apply the Word for changes. I’m not
talking about a temporary change, but permanent changes to effect your
personality.
God’s Word was given to you as a creative material. Any
change you want in your life is possible; use the Word to make it happen. You
can create more victories and sustain yourself in the transcendent life with
the Word.
Confession
The word of God is my life and my sustenance; I’m making
progress and winning every day by the word. Today, my life is improved and
upgraded as the Word of God impacts my spirit, bringing about a transformation
from glory to glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
