Faith That DeliversSample

Day Four: Act!

If someone professes love, yet has no other actions to back up the words of love, are you convinced of the professed love? Not me and certainly not God!

God is love and He demonstrated His love for us most profoundly. He gave His very best—His beloved Son, Jesus, to die for all our sins. Jesus' actions redeemed us and restored God's original plan for us. Genesis 1:26 shares God's statement of "Let us make man beings in our image, to be like us".  This means God created humankind to be of His nature and Being. Why? God wanted beings of His class that He could fellowship with and love. 

God created us to love us. He demonstrates His love by giving. In Genesis 1:28, God's first words to humankind were words of blessing and empowerment. Importantly, God created humankind after He had provided all humankind would need to live and reign.

As believers, we are to walk in God's ways. In faith, God spoke. His faith had corresponding action. Accordingly, our faith should have corresponding actions. Our corresponding actions begin with our speaking of specific Scriptures promising desired results, progress to meditation of these Scriptures until we're fully persuaded that God's Word will deliver to us what it has promised; extend to specific preparatory actions to physically receive what we've already received spiritually, and culminate in physical manifestation of what we had believed for in faith. 

Faith says what God says... Faith acts in ways consistent with God's Word. Such faith delivers!
