“Faith Coupled With Action; Your Key To Success Unlimited™”

Good Day Ladies and Gentle Men.

I want to take this time to inform or remind us that we are all enrolled in a full-time informal school called life. We have the opportunity to learn new lessons everyday in this school. Some of the lessons we may enjoy a great deal and some we may not enjoy at all. But it’s your responsibility not to stop learning from the experiences that life offers to you on a daily bases. And this is just one of such opportunity and I do hope you’ll learn something today.

Our Topic for toady is:

“Faith Coupled With Action; Your Key To Success Unlimited™”


My goal for this teaching is to motivate and inspire you towards peak performance and to help you channel your potentials and resources into a productive and fruitful lifestyle.

Our Text for today is taken from, James 2:14 and Proverbs 10:4

No body ever succeeds without faith coupled with action. Faith is the link between your present and your unseen future. It makes you believe that you can get the physical equivalence of what you hope for. One of the best definitions of faith that I know is found in the Bible, it’s in the Book of Hebrew 11:1, it reads “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

You don’t need physical evidence to believe that you can become successful, just have faith in God, faith in yourself, coupled with persistent action, you will get the success that you desire. You will get what you want from life. The truth is that everything we need in life is already in existence. God ensured that He provided everything first before he brought us into existence; but it’s our faith coupled with our action that can give us all things.

Faith in God has transformed a lot of people from nobody to become somebody, from failures to become successful, from the backstage to the platform. It takes a man that has faith in God and in himself to keep doing what he’s doing until he sees success. Because with the physical eyes, you can not see success written on any task, from the average mind, it’s the end that justifies the beginning, but with the eyes of faith, you know that a task will be successful. So you believe that you’re successful before you even get started.

The Heroes of faith in the Bible all acted on what they believe (their faith).

The Bible says without faith it is impossible to please God…and I add, without faith coupled with ACTION, it is impossible to achieve Success.

It takes faith in God for one to believe that a metal object can fly; it takes faith in God to believe that people can talk and see each other even when they are thousands of kilometers apart. It takes faith in God to believe that man can go to the moon and come back; it takes faith in God to believe that we exist. So in essence it takes faith in God to believe that we can become successful but we must back our faith with action.

Never underestimate the power of your actions. With one small positive action, you can change your life for ever. You don’t have to be a prophet or a fortune – teller to be able to predict if a person is going to be successful. All you need to do is to see if the person is taking actions towards his dreams and ideas. Ideas don’t work until you work

Your success today is as a result of your actions yesterday. Your success tomorrow will be determined by your action today. Success goes beyond knowing what to do. A lot of people have faith and they know what they need to do to become successful, but it’s only few people that actually do what they know. Little wonder we have few successful people as against the unsuccessful.

In Conclusion,

I would love to leave us with this quote “When The Ties That Bind a Human Mind are Broken and a Man is introduced to Himself – The Real Self That has no Limitations – I fancy that the Gates of Hell shake with Fear and the Bells of Heaven ring with Joy” – Napoleon Hill.

Remember, the earnest expectation of the creatures is waiting for your manifestation!...I urge you to go out there and take actions on your faith!

Thank You Very much for listening and God Bless You All!
