Action is your follow up to faith. It should not be invisible rather indivisible from faith. We must faithfully participate in action as we must actively participate in faith.
"What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him?"
-James 2:14
We should all know by now that we cannot please God without faith. However equally as important is the action that our faith initiates.
Taking action is obligatory for a strong and healthy relationship with Christ. After all faith demands action! Evil would like nothing better then to takes advantage of those who choose a course of passivity as oppose to righteous action. Prayers and alone time are essential but not at the expense of righteous action. Many are fearful and struggles with initiating action in their lives and tend to remain inert. We must energize our faith into action.
Esther 3:13-14
13. Do not imagine that because you are in the king’s palace you alone will escape the fate of all the Jews.
14. For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows if perhaps you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”
The above highlighted verse clearly indicates that no one is exempted from confronting and taking action at times, not even the queen. One is not spared because of their position. Faith is interlocked with action and both are needed in our relationship with Christ. By ignoring a set course of action one may unwillingly be forfeiting a call to action.
"Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses"
-1 Timothy 6:12
"You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone."
-James 2:24
"For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead."
-James 2:26
We must faithfully participate in action as we must actively participate in faith. They are indivisible.
Belief with action = faith.
