Identify the good you ought to do

James 4: 17

Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins.

Isn’t that just like us. We know the good we should do today, and because we’re too preoccupied with satisfying ourselves, we forget to do it.

That’s sin? James, the half brother of Jesus says it is.

Does that mean that if we know we should pray or study God’s Word today, and we fail to do so, that’s sin?

Will reading the bible and praying bring good? If God tells us in His Word that we should—then we know it’s for our good—right?

What will you omit in your life today, that God means for good, but since we’re running in ten different directions, it will actually bring sin into our life.

How about the phone call to the lonely person down the street. How about sending that note in the mail, that you’ve been thinking about for weeks.

Identify the good you ought to do, and do it TODAY………
