The Perfect Work - Part #7
James 4 Questions Questions Questions!
James 4:1-17, John 21:15-25, 1 Corinthians 2:14, 1 John 5:3, John 14:15, John 14:21, Ephesians 4:30-5:17, John 15:14-15, Romans 8:7, Romans 16:17, John 8:15,
The purpose of a question is to EVOKE, ENGAGE, and EMPOWER your MIND to ANSWER! What is more important is WHO is asking for an ANSWER! Apostle James asks several questions in James 4 that bring our minds, and thoughts to examine ourselves and the Body of Christ we are ONE with! He brings the very confession of our mouth to confront the submission of our hearts. Encouraging us to ask ourselves, Am I truly a Hearer and Doer of our Lord Jesus Christ, to Glory of Father?
Apostle James from Chapter 1, now in Chapter 4 continues to in practical wisdom expose the ACTIONS and WAYS of Ones in Jesus Christ and the Fruit they bear. “What is your Life?” James asks the people of God. This is not a question of self-examination but a question to define the great meaning; THE ANSWER of your remembrance, your recall, your thoughts of YOUR life…What is it?
IS IT A POSSESSION OF GOD? 1 PETER 2:9
IS IT A TEMPLE OF GOD? 1 CORINTHIANS 3:16
IS IT OWNED BY GOD 1 CORINTHIANS 6:20
IS IT CREATED BY GOD? 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17
Of the 5 questions we discussed Under The Tree, The last question demands an answer from within each of us daily. If THIS LIFE, is given to steward as the possession of God, does THIS LIFE honor the Giver of Life?
Each of us must answer these questions daily in spirit and truth! They must be answers that demonstrate with a willing heart the gratitude for the gift of Life in Jesus Christ! Remember it’s not Apostle James asking the questions in scriptures, but the Holy Spirit revealing to us the very voice of God. (2Peter1:21)
Be encouraged today, that God has given us the Holy Spirit in the Life of Jesus Christ, that we have the Helper to answer the questions of our lives, but we must give Him all of us that we become all of Him…our minds, our wills, our emotions, to the saving of our very souls.
What is your life? Answer: It’s God!
If that is your truth, Live it in Jesus’ Name!
IT’S AN INTENTIONAL JOURNEY….IT’S THE GODLY LIFE!
