THE BLESSING IS IN DOING THE WORD


But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves (James 1:22).


PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME 


The manifestation of God's blessing is in doing His Word. The Word tells you who you are, what belongs to you, and how to live. Doing the Word means aligning your actions with its revelations about your identity, inheritance, and your place in Christ. It requires consistency and commitment, but the results are undeniable.


James 1:23-25 says, “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: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 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.” 


As a young Christian, one of the most important commitments I made was to ensure there was no conflict between my life and what the Scripture says. I wanted consistency; I wanted the Word of God manifested in my life. I desired to live in such a way that my life reflected what the Word says, and I could read my life from the Scriptures without contradiction. To achieve this, I resolved to be a doer of the Word.


To be a doer of the Word means to put the Word into practice, to act on what it says, and to live according to its truth. It is not just about “obeying” God’s instructions; in Christianity, we don’t merely obey the Word—we do the Word. The Word is our life; it defines who we are, what we have, and where we are. As such, we act it out, becoming everything the Word says we are.


As read in the preceding verses of scripture, the one who fails to do the Word is like someone who looks at himself in a mirror but forgets his appearance the moment he turns away. To be a doer of the Word, you must continually remember what the Word says about you and act accordingly. So, commit to being a doer of the Word and it’ll produce in and for you what it talks about. 


PRAYER 


Dear Father, I thank you for the transforming power of your Word. I’m a doer of your Word, and its blessings are manifested in my life. Thank you for the grace and wisdom to continually walk in the light of your Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025 THE VIRGIN BIRTH CONFIRMS HIS DEITY   Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us  (Matthew 1:23). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME    When we say Jesus Christ is deity, we’re affirmingthat He is God. This claim is significant, especially when you consider that many around the world view Jesus merely as a prophet or a great teacher. While it may seem respectful for some to call Him a great prophet or a remarkable teacher, these assertions fall far short of His true identity.    That’s the reason it’s important to understand who He really is by first examining the miracle of His birth. TheBible describes His birth as extraordinary, something that had never occurred in all of history. Matthew 1:18 says, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with c...

 THURSDAY, JULY 31TH 2025 OUR UNIQUE ASSIGNMENTS IN THE MILLENNIUM Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land (Isaiah 32:1-2). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  Our theme scripture is prophetic about the Millennium. The latter part alludes to the unique role we (the Church) would be playing in the millennial reign, when Israel takes center stage. The millennial reign of Christ is not for the Church. It’s for Israel. So, what are we, the Church, going to be doing then? We're going to be carrying out angelic assignments. Our role at the millennial reign of Christ is very different from what a lot of people think; it’s going to be much like what the angels do today in ministering for us. In that day, the Jews will walk in the Millennial blessings that characterize the life of the saints wh...
