Pastor Sandy Live!
God's Word opens us up to God's promises, the faith we apply is what causes those things to be delivered to us. Luke 1:45
How do we know that our faith is working? There are three ways, the first is by action.
Faith comes by hearing but faith works by doing.
Our faith in God is our heavenly currency. It's one thing to have the Word but it's mixing the Word with faith that profits us. The Israelites had the Word but they didn't mix it with faith, therefore it did not profit them and they did not inherit their promise. You must agree with the Word and also do what the Word says.
Faith is a living force drawn from the Living Word to bring about living proof in your life.
Faith is a divine force upon your personality that influences your attitude and your actions. Hebrews 4:11-12
God's Word awakens and strengthens the life of Jesus in our spirit and influences our attitudes and actions.
People of faith are people of action. James 2:14
Your faith should produce good works. Faith without good works is ineffective and inactive. Faith is fake if there is no corresponding action. What you believe should produce action. The word "works" in James chapter two can be translated "actions".
Matthew 5:16
Faith is on the move. Genesis 12:1-4
Abraham heard the Word of the Lord and believed, therefore he moved.
Again, Abraham heard the Word of the Lord and immediately, he acted. Genesis 22:2-3
The Lord weighs our actions, not our words. 1 Samuel 2:3
You can wait for change or you can be the change that you are desiring in your life. Faith takes a leap. It takes action now because you already have the title deed. Faith is not for the future. Waiting for something in the future is called hope. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, but it takes it now! Hebrews 11:1
