FAITH WORKS

You can't fulfill your destiny on a theory, it takes WORK. None of the secrets of success will work unless you do. You are made for action. Success simply takes good ideas and puts them to work. What the free enterprise system really means is that the more enterprising you are the more free you are.

Shakespeare once said: "Nothing can come of nothing." A belief is worthless unless converted into action. The Bible, a book of faith, talks about work over 500 times. Often, the simple answer to your problems is: go to work.

The only time a lazy person ever succeeds is when he tries to do nothing. Some say nothing is impossible, yet there are a lot of people doing nothing every day. Robert Half said it best: "Laziness is the secret ingredient that goes into failure, but it's only kept a secret from the person who fails."

"Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven't planted" (David Bly). What you believe doesn't amount to very much unless it causes you to wake up from your dream and start working. You cannot just dream yourself into what you could be.

Some do things while others sit around becoming experts on how things might be done. The world is divided into people who do things and people who talk about doing things. Belong to the first group, there is far less competition.

Jam 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

I had to encourage you this morning, and I am so glad that you have provided me the opportunity to speak directly to you and those who visit your online ministry. The Word is a Rhema Word, and in these last and evil days, we need more teachers of the true doctrine, who will stand on the Word, and deliver the doctrine just as Christ would want it to be.
