Faith in Action

There will be no radio today. Will be back on 8/1/2013 @ 7am. If you're From Manchester and ordered books and CDs, contact Elder Lesmond.  Faith in Action “No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave praise and glory to God” (Romans 4:20, AMP) Scripture tells us that faith without works is dead. In other words, if the faith inside of us doesn’t get expression through our actions and words, it will no longer be alive. If we don’t use it, we will lose it, so to speak. We have to step out in faith in order to keep faith alive. Every person has been given a measure of faith by God. When we hear the truth of God’s Word, we receive more faith. That’s why it’s so important to put the Word of God inside of you because when you do, you are building your faith. To keep that faith alive and thriving, we have to put it to use. One way to put your faith into action is through praise and worship. Praise is a supernatural force that causes you to stand strong in faith even when your thoughts or circumstances are coming against the truth. Praise keeps your thoughts going in the right direction. It’s hard to be negative when you are declaring the goodness of God! Today, let praise make you stable and strong. Put that faith in your heart into action. Look for reasons to thank God. As you do, you’ll feel that inner strength and be empowered to move forward into victory all the days of your life. Heavenly, today I choose to bless Your name. I thank You for life. I thank You for breath. I thank You for provision, healing, strength and joy. Today I choose to put my faith in action by praising You all day long. In Jesus’ Name. Amen. Happy Kwanzaa! Today is day #6 Kuumba (koo-OOM-bah)  Creativity "To do always as much as we can in the way that we can in order to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than when we inherited it." The Sixth Principle is Kuumba and logically follows from and is required by the Principle of Nia. It is a commitment to being creative within the context of the national community vocation of restoring our people to their traditional greatness and thus leaving our community more beneficial and beautiful than we, i.e., each generation, inherited it. The Principle has both a social and spiritual dimension and is deeply rooted both in social and sacred teachings of African societies. Happy Kwanzaa! Today is day #7 Imani (ee-MAH-nee)  Faith "To believe, with all our heart, in our Creator, our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders, and the righteousness and victory of our struggle." The Seventh Principle is faith which is essentially a profound belief in and commitment to all that is of value to us as a family, community, people and culture. In the context of African spirituality, it begins with a belief in the Creator and in the positiveness of the creation and logically leads to a belief in the essential goodness and possibility of the human personality. For in all African spiritual traditions from Egypt on, it is taught that we are in the image of the Creator Ray of Hope 4U  Tel: +447429721970 Email:rayofhope4u@hotmail.com website:www.rayofhope4u.co.uk             www.rayofhope4uministries.com Bank info: Lloyds TSB Sort code 30 98 14, Acct 18056360 Facebook: Ray A Patrick Twitter: rayofhope4u Radio Broadcast: 94.4fm (London) or www.streetfm.net (worldwide)                            Tuesday, Wednesday 7-9am
