A FAITH THAT DOES
Part II
James 2:14
Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, I pray tonight that we would really be honest
with You and evaluate our lives from Your perspective, from Your
Word, and we thank You that we do have Your Word. We do not
have to lean on our feelings but rather we can go to Your Word

has no deeds? Can such faith save him?
Wow! That's exactly what the epitome of many people's lives
are, many people say: "I believe in the Lord." But there is no
outward fruit in their life. God wants us to realize that He
desires that our life truly produces the works of faith. That
is critical for our knowledge, our understanding, and literally
for our maturity in Christ. There are so many people who h ...
