"If you're hearing the Word but it's not doing anything for you, then you're either not really hearng it or you're not applying it. That's why God told us to meditate on His Word day and night. It has to get in us in order for us to be able to pull on it and apply it to our lives.
God's Word is more than a self-help book. It's not about you doing all the principles just right-no, it requires you to recognize God in you and let His presence live through you, so that you are transformed from the inside out.
So when I hear someone say, "I know that already," but their life is either lethargic or a mess, I realize they may know it, but they don't know it! You see, when you know something, it changes you." Jesse Duplantis in in his book, Distortion.
At church today, listen carefully and hear as if you have just heard the Word for the first time.
"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Romans 10:17
