December 7 - Devotional Opportunity Brings Opposition But he who looks carefully into the faultless law, the [law] of liberty, and is faithful to it and perseveres in looking into it, being not a heedless listener who forgets but an active doer [who obeys], he shall be blessed in his doing (his life of obedience). James 1:25 Many people agree with a sermon or a Scripture, but they dont apply it in their everyday life, so nothing changes. They think that just because they agree with the Word, it should bring change into their life. But change doesnt happen automatically; a person has to be a doer of the Word, not a hearer only. Jesus said, Keep awake (give strict attention, be cautious and active) and watch and pray, that you may not come into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak (Matthew 26:41). Every time you have an opportunity to believe God for something, you will have a temptation to give up on it. Pray that you will overcome temptation when it comes.
