You don't obtain righteousness through works, but if you have faith then you'll know that God is calling you to do works and if you believe on Him and in Him, then you will obey His voice. If you're a smoker, and God is telling you to quit smoking... If you tell Him, "Yeah, I'll quit tomorrow when I go buy some patches to help me," and here He is offering you His help TODAY then that is not faith. Faith is way more than empty words, faith is action. If God says He'll help you quit smoking today, then throw down that pack of smokes and stomp them into the ground right now! Trust in Him for deliverance. And guess what? I'm going to do something out of faith right now, because I believe that God is calling one or more of you that are reading this to quit smoking. He'll help you do it, RIGHT NOW! The question is, will you have faith and accept that help or will you turn His help away? One more step... Some of you have other problems besides smoking, take that step of faith right now... Whatever the situation, Jesus is going to deliver you TODAY! All of what you just read was written by faith, that is what God is speaking to me right now. You'll know that this message is for you, because it's going to hit you like a ton of bricks. I just hope that you'll do the right thing, the faith thing!
