Faith,Obedience and Action

         Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.

          Obedience is listening to a command and doing the command.

           Action is an act.

           However, we can't talk about faith without talking about Abraham,Isaac,Jacob and the Fathers of faith.

            God told Abraham to leave his father's house and go to a place that he will show him.He obeyed and moved.How can you starting moving to a place you don't know.That's Faith.Obedience is very important in mixing with faith. After action follows.

            God told Abraham that he will give him a promise child from Sarah.He believed and his action was that he stock with Sarah till 90years.

              Isaac followed his father for sacrifice. He followed his father evening without seeing a Lamb.Isaac believe that the Lord himself will provide a Lamb.

              Isaac was still when a wife was sort for him.When Rebecca was brought to him he believed that She was his wife. He didn't doubt that the servant brought a wrong wife to him.His action was that he married her.

               Esau and Jacob were born.He had different part.Jacob believe that he will get  the blessinging from Esau he took action and he got it.Jacob obeyed his mother that he will get the blessing of his father he believed and he got it.Esau even believed that there is something he should get from his father he got it and he was blessed.

               Jacobs mother told him to go to Laban he went just like his grandfather he went to Laban.The Bible never told us that he has been to Laban house.He went with no material things believing that he will prosper,he went and became prosperous

               Jacob was told to work for 7 years that he will get a wife. He believe and agreed to work for those years because of his faith he even believed with his faith and worked for another 7 years and the wife he wanted was given to him,that is faith.How could he not disbelieve that his he won't still be given the wife he wanted again.It's because of his faith and the took action by working to get the wife he wanted.

                 In whatever you do you must have faith,believe and take action.

                 To have the neo life you must believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross of Calvary and that his blood can cleanse you from sin.You must take action by confessing you sin with your mouth and believe in the Lord Jesus in your heart you will be saved.

                 When doing things you don't only believe but you must take action. When in school you must believe you can succeed and be successful,but you must take action to read and study.You must have the school time-table.You must attend classes, you must do assignment, you must write your tests,you must write your exams,you must attend practice classes, you must do your practical exams,you must do your project, you must do your thesis.You must do other necessary things that can help you get distinctions.An example is to study in group borrow notes and ask questions.

            In believing God for this you must take action. That's faith.
