This sermon centers on the vital distinction between hearing God's Word and actively obeying it, drawing from James 1:22 –25 to challenge believers to move beyond mere reception to faithful practice. It emphasizes that true faith is demonstrated not in passive listening but in consistent action—worship, moral integrity, prayer, evangelism, and self-sacrifice—highlighting Jesus' teaching in the parable of the wise and foolish builders as a stark warning against empty hearing. The sermon uses the metaphor of a mirror to illustrate how Scripture reveals the heart, cautioning against forgetfulness and urging intentional practices like journaling and accountability to retain spiritual conviction. It further presents the 'law of liberty' as the liberating gospel of Christ, which, when embraced and persevered in, brings divine blessing not as a transactional reward but as a sustaining grace woven into the very act of obedience, resulting in spiritual fruitfulness and enduring prosperity.
