Say it, See it - Faith's Corresponding Action

# Speak Your Faith: The True Work of James 2:20

Join our daily livestream M-F at 9 AM EST to jumpstart your day with faith! Today, we tackle **James 2:20**—“Faith without works is dead”—and challenge the misconception that you must perform extreme actions like throwing away medicine or quitting your job to prove your faith. The primary “work” is **speaking the Word**! Unless the Holy Spirit prompts a specific action, your faith is activated by believing in your heart and declaring God’s promises with your mouth. We also explore the power of **praying in tongues** to align your tongue with the Holy Spirit, making your faith alive and effective.

This message clarifies that condemning yourself or others for not “doing enough” misses the point. Abraham spoke, “God will provide a lamb” (Genesis 22:8). Rahab declared, “The Lord has given you the land” (Joshua 2:9). Their corresponding action was speaking faith, not reckless acts. Learn how to jumpstart your faith by speaking God’s Word daily and avoid the trap of legalism.

**Why watch?**
- Understand the true meaning of “works” in James 2:20—speaking the Word.
- Avoid condemnation from misguided teachings about extreme actions.
- Discover how praying in tongues empowers your faith and bridles your tongue.
- Be inspired by biblical examples and real-life stories of speaking faith.

**Join us live M-F at 9 AM EST** to grow in faith and speak God’s promises!
