The Mirror

from On the Knife's Edge: Walking the narrow road with Jesus · host Sofia Nygaard

James 1:22-24 says:Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.Today we're going to dive into what this verse has to do with Jacob's wrestle, and the wrestle each of us has when we find ourselves at a crossroads in our walk with God, the point in which He holds up the mirror. Will we agree with God and be set free? Or will we walk away and forget what He's told us, forget what we look like?John 8:31-32 NKJVThen Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."For further study: Read the above scriptures, and Jacob's wrestle in Genesis 32:22-31. What do you sense God saying to you? What is the truth He would reveal to you right now, about your life, your call, yourself? Will you agree with Him?
