TAKE ACTION TODAY (My favorite action verses)
TAKE ACTION TODAY! A couple of my favorite verses on action below. Are you waiting on God or is God waiting on you? God already equipped us and gave us authority. Everyday is another day to claim it. Faith will inform your action and your action will inform your faith. These verses below go along with my latest blog post WTF (Faith) here.

“In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”

“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.”
James 1:5-6, 8 NIV
““Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.

James 2:20-22 NIV
“For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you, 8 nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. 9 We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate. For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”
2 Thessalonians 3:7-10

In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”
