Stop skimming. Take one verse, do one thing, today.
TL;DR
- Pick one verse.
- Write one action.
- Do it before bed.
Scripture to stand on
- James 1:22: Doers, not hearers only.
- Luke 6:46-49: House on rock = hear and do.
A simple plan
-
Choose a small passage
Like learning a recipe by cooking one dish—pick today’s verse or 3–5 lines only.
-
Name one action
Finish this: ‘Because of this verse, I will…’ Think next physical move, not vague intent.
-
Put it on the calendar
Treat it like a meeting with God: schedule it today. If <10 minutes, use the next free slot.
-
Do it and report
Action creates understanding. Do it, then note two lines: what happened, how God helped.
Try this now
- Start the ‘Apply one verse’ challenge.
- Write a 2‑line reflection after you act.
If this is your week…
One action per day for five days. Weekend review: which actions moved the needle?
When it’s hard
If you can’t do the action, shrink it or change the time. Keep the loop: verse → action → report.
FAQs
- Is one action enough?
- Yes. It builds the muscle of obedience. Volume comes later.
- What if I forget?
- Set a reminder with the action text in it. Keep it visible.
