As a child of God, I consider reading and studying the Bible to be very important. I attend church regularly to hear the preaching and teaching of the Bible. James 1 reminds us that we shouldn’t only “hear” (or read) God’s Word; we should put action to what we hear. James 1:25 tells us that if we act on what we are told, we are blessed in that action. God never lies.

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the many instructions You give us in Your Word. Please guide us to hear and act on Your commands.

I pray this in Jesus’ name.

God is so good.
