Effectual Faith

James 2:17 says that faith without works is dead. There are certain words and actions that validate and activate our faith. We must in some way communicate our faith in order for it to work. It's not good enough to just say I believe.......

Philemon 1:6 says, "that the communication or your faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus." This is how we effectively communicate our faith and make it active! We must acknowledge or THANK God for all of the good things that are in us being in Christ Jesus. We must be thankful and always aware of who we are, what we have, and what we can do IN CHRIST!

Have you ever noticed how when you begin to thank God that your faith begins to rise and you suddenly start to FEEL better? There's a reason for this. When we do, our faith is being communicated and activated! Let's begin to acknowledge who we are, what we have, and what we can do in HIM and see our faith become active!
