Faith Is An Action Verb Jun 14 2010
"...when the soles of the feet...shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, and the waters which are flowing down from above shall stand in one heap." - Joshua 3:13
Faith requires action.
After 40 years, the children of Israel had been led out of the wilderness and now found themselves on the banks of a swollen Jordan River. The Promised Land was just on the other side. Oh so close, yet so far away! A huge obstacle separated them from the blessing God had promised. Standing on the bank of the raging river, wringing their hands and praying would not solve their problem. They had to act. And it was not until, in faith, they stepped into the turbulent waters that the river stood on end and the people walked into the Promised Land on dry land.
So it is with our lives. Obstacles separate us from God's richest blessings. To simply have faith that God will provide a way doesn't always make a way. To stand by until God makes a way obvious may cause us to delay His blessing. It takes both faith and action to experience God's best.
Go for it as God leads!

Yes, report it NevermindTodays topic is to say the least inspired by God.It meets me at the very point of my need and has inspired me to move on as led by the spirit of God at this point in time when I have almost given up.
