Faith Is Action

Week of July 14, 2023

 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Philippians 4:13

Faith is acting in confidence that God’s power is active in your life.  Faith is trusting God’s power will be your strength to do everything through Him.

When you say, “There’s something I’d really like to do for God, but I don’t think that I can do it.”  God may reply, “Great! Now that you have figured that out, I can work through you.  You can’t do it by yourself, but with my power working through you, you can do anything I ask you to do.”

If you only say “I can’t” and never recognize that “God can” you are less likely to ever attempt great things for God.  It’s like having a car with a very powerful engine, if you don’t believe it can get past the first intersection you’ll never take it out of the garage.

God’ power is available to you, “for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.” Philippians 2:13Remember, faith is acting with confidence in obedience to what He has called you to do.  Where is God asking you to step out in faith?
