Biblical Principles Daily Devotionals Day 23



Why I Believe What I Believe


Day 23:
Biblical Principle - Absolute truth from God’s Word:
It is possible to be in a place where the Lord is and not know it; including Bethel ( house of God.  We need to be careful not to miss seeing the Lord.

Gen 28:16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not. Gen 28:19 And he called the name of that place Bethel: but the name of that city was called Luz at the first.

Practical - Works that apply Biblical Principle:
This section is for you to find a way to apply the truth in your life. I will try to give only one as example; there may be other practical ways. This is what makes the Christian walk so important and makes it important to have a deliberate purpose in everything we do.

We can be in church hearing the preaching of the Word of God and not see the Lord.  We should be careful not to miss what the Lord is doing but just being a hearer of the Word of God. 

Jam 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
Jam 1:23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
Jam 1:24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
Jam 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Jam 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
