I was urging one of my sons the other day to read the Word of God regularly. “Why?”, he says, “I know what it says.” But there is a need in all of us to know and do the Word, as James 1:22-25 says, “But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was.” We are forgetful; we need reminding. There is no standing still in your spiritual life. You are either going forward or backward. Get in the Word; stay in the Word regularly both individually and corporately.
