Take Action In Faith


Psalm 29:7 The Lord is my strength and my shield:  My heart trusts in him; and I am helped.

God provides for us our daily needs and he protects us.  I have noticed throughout the New Testament when Jesus provides for or performs a miracle the person(s) on the receiving end, has to have an action of faith first.  

See Matthew 14: 25-32 Jesus is walking on the water toward his disciples.  Peter wants to join him. Jesus has him walk on water to himself.  Peter’s action is to trust and step out of the boat and walk on the water.  Then when Peter begins to doubt he starts to sink.  Jesus says take my hand Peter.  Peter gives his hand to Jesus (action in trust) and he is safe. 

 When the waves of this life are raising around us Gods calls us to trust him, focus on him, and take his hand.  Move toward God in faith and let him work on what needs to be done in your life.  Your action should be trust and acting in faith as he works for your good. Don’t settle for a human solution when you have God who can give you a solution that is way beyond your human imagination.


Please pray with me – Dear Father thank you for being a God who listens and provides for us.  Help us move to action in faith.  Please be our shepherd and carry us forever. Amen
