Reflection on James (Dec 10)

Trusting God thru His Promises

The purpose of James epistle is to expose hypocritical practices and
to teach right Christian behaviour.
True faith & good works cannot be
divorced, for your life is the lab in
which your faith is shown to be real.
For the Lord wants believers not only to hear the truth but also to do it.
And we need the Lord’s grace
and to Live Out our faith in Him.

On Monday, we learn from James 1
that God Urges Persistent Faith.
On Tuesday, we learn from James 2
that God Urges Living Out Faith.
On Wed, we learn from James 3
that God Grants Us Wisdom.
On Thu, we learn from James 4
that God Draws Near to Us.
On Friday, we learn from James 5
that God Answers Prayer of Faith.
On Saturday, we learn from Jas 3-5
that God Urges Staying Connected.

Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who trust You:
For You urges living out faith
an in fact urges persistent faith;
For You grant us wisdom,
You draw near to us, and
want us to stay connected.
For You truly keep Your promises
and You answer prayer of faith;
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
