Being a doer of the word and not a hearer only

Naliogate

Beloved of All
Whoever knows the right thing to do and does not do it to him it is sin. Lord give me the ability and strength and courage and peace to do the right things always.
 
We hear your heart’s cry for strength and courage to walk in obedience to God’s Word. The Scripture you referenced is powerful: *"But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves"* (James 1:22 WEB). And again, *"Therefore to him who knows good and does it not, to him it is sin"* (James 4:17 WEB). These verses remind us that faith without action is dead, and knowledge without obedience is rebellion.

We must examine our hearts honestly before the Lord. Are there areas where we know His will but hesitate to follow? Perhaps it is in forgiving someone who has wronged us, speaking truth when it is unpopular, or turning away from sin that so easily entangles. The enemy would love nothing more than for us to remain hearers only, comfortable in our knowledge but unchanged in our lives. But God calls us to holiness, to action, to a life that reflects His character.

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, acknowledging that apart from You, we can do nothing. Lord, we ask for the strength to be doers of Your Word, not just hearers. Give us the courage to step out in faith when Your Spirit prompts us, even when it is difficult or costly. Forgive us for the times we have known Your will and yet chosen our own way. Cleanse our hearts and renew our minds so that we may walk in obedience with joy and peace.

We rebuke the spirit of complacency and lukewarmness in our lives. We declare that we will not be satisfied with mere knowledge of Your Word but will live it out in every area of our lives. Father, fill us with Your Holy Spirit, that we may have the power to overcome temptation and the wisdom to discern Your will. Help us to walk in integrity, to love mercy, and to act justly, as You have commanded.

Lord, we also lift up our brothers and sisters who are struggling to do what is right. Some may be battling secret sins, others may be afraid of the consequences of obedience, and still others may feel overwhelmed by the weight of their circumstances. We ask that You would break every chain of fear, doubt, and disobedience. Give them the peace that surpasses all understanding and the boldness to stand firm in Your truth.

We declare that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against us in judgment, we shall condemn. For You are our God, and we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus who strengthens us. We will walk in the light as You are in the light, and the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin.

Father, we thank You for Your grace that empowers us to live righteously. We thank You for Your patience as we grow in our faith. Help us to encourage one another, to hold each other accountable, and to spur one another on toward love and good deeds. May our lives be a living testimony of Your goodness and faithfulness, drawing others to You.

In the precious and powerful name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Let us also remember that doing the right thing is not about perfection but about a heart posture of surrender to God. When we fail—and we will—we must quickly repent, receive His forgiveness, and press forward. *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9 WEB). God’s grace is sufficient, and His strength is made perfect in our weakness.

We encourage you to meditate on God’s Word daily, allowing it to transform your mind and heart. Surround yourself with fellow believers who will challenge and encourage you to walk in obedience. And remember, *"Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up"* (Galatians 6:9 WEB). The harvest of righteousness is worth every step of obedience. Keep pressing on!
 
We're right there with you, standing in faith and obedience. It's not always easy, is it? But remember, we're not alone. God's Spirit lives in us, empowering us to do what's right. Let's keep our hearts soft and our ears open to His promptings. Today, let's commit to do one thing we know we should, even if it's just a small step. Let's encourage each other along the way, too. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.

We want to thank you for the privilege of joining with you in prayer these past days. It has been our joy to stand in agreement with you as you seek the Lord’s strength to be a doer of His Word, not merely a hearer. We have lifted you up before the throne of grace, asking the Holy Spirit to fill you with courage, peace, and the unwavering resolve to walk in obedience to God’s will.

If the Lord has already answered your prayer—if you’ve felt His strength empowering you to act in righteousness, His peace guarding your heart, or His courage rising within you—we would be so encouraged to hear your praise report. Please share how God has moved in your life so we can rejoice with you.

If, however, you are still waiting for that breakthrough—if the struggle to do what is right feels heavy or the path forward seems unclear—we invite you to post this request again. We are committed to continuing with you in prayer, lifting you up until you see the victory God has promised. The Lord is faithful, and His timing is perfect. Keep seeking Him, keep surrendering to His will, and trust that He is working even when you cannot yet see it.

May the Father continue to draw you closer to Himself, filling you with His wisdom and grace. May Jesus Christ, our Savior, strengthen your hands and steady your heart as you follow Him. And may the Holy Spirit empower you to walk in obedience, not out of fear, but out of love for the One who first loved you. We pray this in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
