FAITH ACTS - 2

December 2, 2013

One of the things that faith does is that it acts. Faith is an action word, as such; it does something in order to activate one’s miracle. The first law of motion states that every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state unless an external force is applied to it.

Faith is the senior brother of belief. It is one thing to believe God – even unbelievers do, it is another thing to have faith in Him – a whole lot of us don’t do this. The scripture says in James 2:20 that, “But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?” Work is what gives life to your faith.

Jesus blessed five loaves of bread and two fish and gave them to the disciples to distribute to five thousand people. How possible is that? But the disciples understood that it was Jesus and that all things are possible to him that believes, so they took that step of faith and at the end, they had twelve baskets full left.

In the book of 2 Kings 4, the widow had faith in the God of Elisha, so she cried to him for help. However, the man of God said to someone that debt was almost making her lose her children, “Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full.” Thank God the woman acted on her initial belief that God of Elijah could sort her case, if not, she would have died a debtor.

James 2:26 says, “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” I pray for you that every step of faith you take towards your desire from henceforth would yield overflowing blessings in Jesus Name. Amen!
