Step
Two: Do It
By Rev.
Kenneth E. Hagin
"What good is it, my brethren, if a man professes to have faith, and
yet his actions do not correspond. Someone will say, 'You have faith, I
have actions: prove to me your faith apart from corresponding actions
and I will prove mine to you by my actions.' You notice that Abraham's
faith was cooperating with his actions, and that by his actions his
faith was perfected" (James 2:14,18,22).
Step 2: Do it.
It wouldn't have done that woman with the issue of blood any good to
have said, "If I may but touch His clothes I shall be whole," if she
hadn't acted on what she said.
Jesus said to me in that vision, "Your actions defeat you, or they put
you over. According to your actions, you receive, or you are kept from
receiving." That's important. Read it again.
The Book of James is written to believers. James said, "What doth it
profit, my brethren?" Most people think James was writing about
salvation, but he was writing to people who were already saved, pointing
out that faith without corresponding actions won't work.
It is a great mistake to confess faith in the Word of God and, at the
same time, contradict your confession by wrong actions. Actions must
correspond with your saying and believing in order to receive from God.
This woman said, "If I may touch but His clothes, I shall be whole," and
then she acted on that and she received!
Confession: My actions line up with God's Word. My actions put me
over. By my actions I receive from God!
