Revolution - the overthrow or renunciation of one governmental system or ruler with the replacement of another by the governed for the sake of freedom or safety.

Our spiritual revolution is about making sure God occupies the God spot in our lives.

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ… James 1:1a ESV

It’s critical to the revolution that we commit to following closely Jesus as Lord in the fight!

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. James 1:22 ESV

TA: Personal Revolution requires a decision to act on God’s life changing Grace.

What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. James 2:14-17 ESV

Life - characterized by metabolism, growth, reaction to stimuli, and reproduction.

Faith is taking action on what you Believe.

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved. Acts 16:31 NKJV (Believing Faith)

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 ESV

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10 ESV

But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. John 1:10 ESV

But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe in the one God; you do well. Even the demons believe and shudder! Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? James 2:19-20 ESV

The demons believed Jesus existed but they didn’t believe in Him, look to Him as Lord.

Botched believing will keep you bound.

Faith is ACTING like it is so, even when it’s not so, in order that it might be so, because God said so. Tony Evans

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 ESV

The revolution starts with believing, but only advances with faith fueled action.

So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin. James 4:17 ESV

Unless faith hit’s your feet it’s not faith.

For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7 ESV

So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. Romans 10:17 ESV

Hearing God’s word without acting in faith is like getting directions for a trip you never take.

Faith isn’t an intellectual accent to a concept, but rather acting on what God says is possible.

A failure to live by and live out our faith is an accusation against the power and compassion of God.

Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness. Romans 4:3 ESV

Because of God’s grace, anyone can choose to act in Faith.

The official pleaded, “Lord, please come now before my little boy dies.” Then Jesus told him, “Go back home. Your son will live!” And the man believed what Jesus said and started home. John 4:49-50 ESV
