Learn them, keep them and do them

Deuteronomy 5:1 “And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them.”

Our opening text teaches that walking with God demands learning, keeping what you learn and practicing them. This is how you can do exploits in life and also please God.

The Christian life is not about a “name tag” or playing religion. It is a life lived in agreement with divine truth. In fact, it is living out the life of God in you. Nonetheless, it will take learning to know what you ought to do as a Christian. That’s learning the word, which reveals the will of God.

Not only that, you have to keep the word in your heart (Psalm 119:10-11). In other words, you must let the word dominate your being so that it’s influence will be a free flow. The word dominating your heart, brings you into practicing the word.

The truth of learning, keeping and practicing the word must be your hallmark. Don’t be an ignorant believer. Know the word, and do it. Until you give in to doing what the word says, you will be limited in life and even miss out on God’s will for your life.
