Day 32: Faith Without Works is No Faith at All

March 30, 2025

James 2:14-17

What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.'

Introduction

Our children and world must see evidence of Faith in action- serving others in need and sharing of the gospel.  They follow what they see more than what we say.

Insight

The foundation of our faith is critical for our children.  Psalm 11:3 says, “If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” That’s the reason Jesus asks, “…when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”  He knew this fountain would be the reason we have salvation, grace to serve others, faith filled prayers to expect answers and faith that the Bible is our foundation of truth.   The foundation of faith must be sown into our children so their lives are changed forever.  Jesus said to let the children come to him and admonished us to have childlike faith, asking, believing, trusting, and expecting.

Turnaround Questions

Are we sharing and passing our faith to our children?  How will we accomplish this responsibility faith before the world contaminates their hearts and minds?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help us to demonstrate your love to our children, Jesus help us to serve as you did by laying down Your life. Holy Spirit, reveal salvation to every child’s heart so they will have eternal life.  Let us be the voice for all children. Even the unborn child, and sow faith in their hearts.  In Jesus’s name,  Amen.
