Faith is an Action Word

Faith is knowing something exists or is possible without actually seeing it. It's believing in something all the way! But faith put into action can be seen. And the world needs to see our faith in action! Faith by itself, not accompanied by action is ineffective. Faith is most evident by your actions.

If you are believing in God for finances or for a new job, then you must put action to your faith. First, create a new resume.  Second, go look for a new job. Third, visualize yourself in the new job at the income you desire. Be in prayer and believe in what you can't see.  Put your faith into "action" by doing things that line up with your current level of faith.

"What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? if a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. But someone will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works." James 2:14-18

What action do you need to do to see God's blessings? How can you expect to succeed if the action is not there to support your faith?

"Faith move mountains, but you have to keep pushing while you are praying." ~Mason Cooley
