Is faith without action really faith?

Can you have faith without action? 

I contend that if you have belief, that doesn't translate into doing something with that belief, then you actually don't believe it at all. 

James follows this line of thought when he highlights Abraham: " Abraham had faith in God, and it was credited to his account as righteousness."

He was called "God's friend," not because of his belief alone, but because of what he did with that belief.

You believe in God? 

Are you willing to do what He says? Go where he says to go? Speak to the person he's nudging you toward? 

Are you willing to listen to The whisper of his voice that's prompting you to do something that doesn't make sense with your head? 

We've been conditioned to believe that mere belief is the answer. 

We say a prayer over the weekend and we feel satiated. But are our lives being transformed as we do what our father is asking us to do?

You believe, but what is that step you need to take?

May you have the faith to surrender your life to our Father, just like Abraham. 

Just like Moses. 

Just like Yeshua.

And may you say with the bold confidence of a changed heart—not my will, but Yours be done.
