Be Called; Understand; Do

10-12-07

So they read distinctly from the book, in the Law of God; and they gave the sense, and helped them to understand the reading.
Nehemiah 8:8

In the Old Testament, understanding was needed for the spiritual revival to occur; in the New Testament, spiritual revival is needed for the understanding to occur. The New Covenant brings mercy on God's people; a love for those who long for undertanding.

I must continue to allow the Word to explode with meaning in my heart and obey the call.

Lord, I am determined to do what You would have me do. Help me to move; do Your will. It is not enough to know the Call and understand it - but to also do it. That is the fulfillment of the commitment. Thank You Jesus, for fulfilling your commitment to us; may I be in Your likeness. In Jesus' name. Amen.
