Have you ever bought a pirated movie CD/DVD in the parking lots of Dubai? Well, I was tempted once but I stopped right after that! The reason for stopping was not due to the fact that I realized it was wrong to support piracy but rather because the video did not match the audio! (i.e. the dubbing was of bad quality).
Has it ever happened to you that your friend of spouse is talking to you and whilst you keep looking in their direction and even nodding periodically, your mind has travelled miles away. You are not listening anymore!
Has it ever happened to you that God's word is being read in church and you are busy admiring the dress of someone seated in front of you (Hope it's not someone's wife! :-)
Has it ever happened to you that you have meditated on a ‘promise of God’ (Scripture passage) and you have chanted it over and over again, but you’ve not kept a corresponding video of it coming to pass in your life (i.e. your video did not match your audio)?
In James 1:6-8 it is written: “But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. 8 Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do”.
BELIEVE here means that the action corresponds to the message. It means that our VIDEO should align with the AUDIO to receive any blessing from God!
