Imagine; you completed the pre-med program at 
UA, you finish medical school and graduate as a Doctor, then you go home, mount your medical degree on the wall, sit in you recliner and draw welfare! Just hearing and learning without doing will not make you a good doctor! You must DO what you have learned! The same applies to the Word of God, we must not just hear the word we must DO WHAT IT SAYS! “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. DO WHAT IT SAYS. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.” (James 1:22-24) Our testimony is energized by WHAT WE DO, not just by what we say! “Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear,just as you would obey Christ. Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ, DOING THE WILL OF GOD FROM YOUR HEART.” (Ephesians 6:5-6) The law of liberty means the Gospel; it is a law, because it enforces responsibilities from God, and supporters a rule of life; it punishes offenders, and rewards the obedient. The Gospel, nevertheless, is a law that gives freedom from the guilt, and gives power, dominion, and influence over sin; and it is perfect, providing the richness of salvation for the soul: and it may be called perfect here, unlike the law, which was a structure of types and representations of which the Gospel is the sum and substance! “But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it–NOT FORGETTING WHAT THEY HAVE HEARD, BUT DOING IT–they will be blessed in what they do.” (James 1:25) Jesus says: “I know your deeds, your love and faith, your service and perseverance, and that YOU ARE NOW DOING MORE than you did at first.” (Revelation 2:19)
WE MUST BE DOING THE WILL OF GOD WILL, FROM OUR HEART!
