Be exposed, then be obedient!

Good morning! Another wonderful day to be able to do God's work!! God is good all the time, all the time God is good!! Have you thought about the last 3 days of what Paul is telling us? It is relevant for today as well.

In verse 9 Paul makes a very shallow on the surface statement, however, very deep if you think about it. Philippians 4:9 "Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me-everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you."

Okay, on the surface, yeah,yeah, I hear what you are saying. BUT, do you REALLY HEAR? Paul is telling us it is not enough to just HEAR, but to put into practice what you learned. It is easy to listen to the preacher, then yep, but tha is not for me, he was talking to all the other people. WHAT?!?!? Think about what you read and study in the BIBLE, then PUT IT INTO PRACTICE!!

The BIBLE is not as a virus, where you can be exposed and then get it. We must be exposed, and then let the word lead us to obedience and follow the word of God in deed as well as thought. We can be exposed but never catch it, just like sitting in a garage does not make you a car. Read, study, follow and act as God's word says. Thank you for reading with me today. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
Johnny
