Faith & Works

You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.
James 2:24 NASB1995

How many times have I read this verse? Many times. But when I read it yesterday, it had a whole new meaning. I will give thanks and praise to God, who through The Holy Spirit revealed something new.

My heart goes out, breaks, for the person who is content in their faith because they took a class or walked an aisle, making a decision to be a Christian . . . BUT . . . that’s as far as it goes.

True faith in God commands us to serve God for His ultimate purpose and His glory. Our salvation is about God, not us. His desire is to use us to show His love and salvation to others so they may know Him and receive the blessings He has for His people, His creation.

Faith is more than a prayer. More than a confession. It is to work under the guidance of the Holy Spirit for the purpose and glory of God!

🌹For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
