KEEP MAKING PROGRESS
(Apply The Word For Positive Changes In Your Life)
TO THE BIBLE 2 Timothy 3:16
“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
LET’S TALK
As a Christian, it’s important that you keep making progress, and using the Word of God to improve the quality of your personality. You ought to be able to testify of definite changes in your personality in recent times, through the application of the Word of God. There should be something positive and definite that you’ve built into your character or something negative that you got rid of from your character, by using the Word of God.
Subject yourself to the Word for it to effect changes in your spirit and in your soul. The change in your physical body is easy; the focus now is the change from within. You have a responsibility in building and upgrading your life with the Word of God; no one can do this for you. There’re people who haven’t changed in ten years: the same things and people that offended them years ago, are still offending them now. The same issues they’ve had in five years are still there. They’ve neither changed nor grown; that’s sad.
The question to ask is, have such people acquired more information? Of course, they might have; but they haven’t acted on the information. It’s not enough to hear or gather scriptural information; you must act on the Word.
Some people listen to the Word but are so used to the voice that it neither means much to them nor effects a change in their character. They’ve become too familiar with the Word. Don’t be that way. Believe in the power and ability of the Word of God to transform your life from glory to glory.
Apply the Word for changes. I’m not talking about a temporary change, but permanent changes to affect your personality. God’s Word was given to you as a creative material. Any change you want in your life is possible; use the Word to make it happen. You can create more victories and sustain yourself in the transcendent life with the Word.

Speak
The Word of God is my life and my sustenance; I’m making progress and winning every day by the Word. Today, my life is improved and upgraded as the Word of God impacts my spirit, bringing about a transformation from glory to glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
