Today as I was taking my children to school. I turned on the cd player and started listening to a PJ Morton cd. After a couple of songs the cd started to skip; no matter what song I played it would not play. So I had to turn off the cd player and listen to the radio. Usually I would think something was wrong with the cd and just put a different cd in the player but I just got the cd a day ago so it could not be the cd. A thought came to mind "Many times it is not the product that is flawed it is the instrument that needs to be cleansed"
A lot of times we blame the product when the true problem is the vessel (us).
Think about this. God has a cd(word) He desires to listen to in His cd player (you). When He puts cd(word) in the player(you) He loves what He is listening to then the cd(word) starts to skip and does not reflect the sound(result) He intends to hear. He knows the cd(word) is perfect so He turns off the player(you) until it is properly cleansed (until all filthy doubtful, faithless thoughts are removed). God cleanses until what has been put in us can properly be expressed out of us. His Word works but until we believe His Word it will not serve its intended purpose in our lives.
