"Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip."
Hebrews 2:1
If you do not hold firmly to the truths of the Word of God that you have heard in time past; revisiting those books, messages and notes to remind yourself of these truths, they will slip without you even knowing.
You need to be able to appraise yourself to see weather you are more effective and productive now than you were in your spiritual life, business, marriage, academics, etc. If you are less effective now in any area of your life, it means that you are slipping from the truths you learnt before. You have to now give the more earnest heed or a closer attention to those truths that made you more effective and productive then.
Kenneth Hagin spoke about a young man who bought his message on how to cultivate the human spirit. He said this young man listened to that message again and again continuously. All he had to his name when he got the message was fifty dollars. But as he continued putting to practice the truths he learnt from that message, in seven years he was worth seven million dollars.
The same consistency practised in the life of Steve Scott also made him a millionaire. Gary Smalley told him to read the book of proverbs in the Bible everyday for five years, and he would become a millionaire. Steve Scott did as he was told, read the book of proverbs every day, wrote down and practised the truths he learnt consistently, and in two years, he was worth over four million dollars. I encourage you to embrace faithfulness to the truths that you have learnt. It is the foundation for a great future.
Prayer.
Dear Father, I thank you for as I commit to doing the Word of God and practising the truths I have learnt therein, the rewards and effect of the Word will be manifested through my life for your glory in Jesus Name. Amen.
For further study read:
Deuteronomy 32:46-47, 2 Timothy 2:15,
Matthew 13:52, 1 Timothy 1:18
Doing the Word
You can order for the message 'Four important things' and use it to culture your spirit.
