Lead by Minister Donna Owens Date: November 13, 2026 Foundation Scripture: James 1:22 Be Doers of the Word We are called to be doers of God’s Word, not hearers only. We are blessed because of His grace, which empowers us to hear, receive, and obey. Prayer Focus: Moving from Hearing to Doing 1. Expose the Gap: Lord, reveal the difference between simply hearing Your Word and intentionally living it out. (James 1:22) 2. Put the Lord First: Help us understand the cost of discipleship. May our love and loyalty to You exceed every other relationship, including our attachment to our own lives. Nothing and no one should take Your place. (Luke 14) 3. Strengthen Our Obedience: Give us the courage and strength to obey You, remain steadfast, and stand firmly on the solid foundation of Your Word. 4. Guide Our Steps: Lord, guide us with Your wisdom and teach us the way we should go. (Psalm 32:8) 5. Prick Our Hearts: Let Your Word stir our hearts and deepen our desire to demonstrate our love through obedience. (John 14:15) 6. Become Intentional Doers: Keep our spirits open and receptive to hearing Your voice. Help us intentionally apply Your Word and walk in Your perfect will. Our Surrender: Lord, help us lay down anything, anyone, or any desire that competes with our love, loyalty, and obedience to You. Nothing above You, Lord! Song Anchors ⚓️ - “Change Me” – Tamela Mann - “I Do” – John P. Kee Personal Reflection Am I simply hearing God’s Word, or am I intentionally putting it into practice? My Commitment: I will not be a hearer only. By God’s grace, I will become an intentional doer of His Word, putting Him first in my heart, my decisions, and my daily walk. One important takeaway from this teaching: Obedience is the evidence that I am not just hearing God’s Word, but allowing His Word to transform how I live. 🙏🏾

This one so powerful and deep! Thank you God for the fruits that you have given us to cultivate, walk in and share.
