A Sermon By WBJMinistries
Opening Prayer
Abba Yahusha, Heavenly Father, we come to You humbly but boldly, asking You to awaken our hearts. Remove every passive belief and fill us with living, walking, moving faith. Stir up the fire inside us and make us doers of Your Word, not hearers only. May our faith bear fruit in action. HaleluYah.
Introduction: The Stillness of Belief or the Movement of Faith?
“Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.” — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Manhattan, New York is full of movement: yellow cabs, flashing lights, subways, and the heartbeat of ambition. Yet if you walk through the halls of The Museum of Modern Art, you’ll find people still. They are looking, absorbing, reflecting—but not moving. And that's a beautiful thing... in art.
Nevertheless in our spiritual lives, if all we ever do is look, admire, and talk, yet never move, we’re living in a museum of faith. Our beliefs are framed, our prayers painted—but our faith is not moving.
The Difference Between Passive Belief and Active Faith
“But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.”
– Ya'aqob (James) 1:22, Halaleyah Scriptures
Passive belief says: “I believe Yah can do it.”
Active faith says: “I’m going to step out because I know Yah is with me.”
Unkulunkulu, the Great One in Zulu belief, created humanity from reeds—living things that sway, bend, and move with the wind. Yahusha calls us to move with the Ruach (Spirit), not remain static.
The Amadlozi, ancestral spirits in African tradition, honor those who live out their callings, not just dream about them.
Are we like statues in The Met Cloisters—beautiful but unmoving? Or are we walking epistles, writing Yahusha's glory into the streets of our lives?
2. Faith Walks on Water, Not Just Words
“And Kepha said to Him, ‘Master, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.’ And He said, ‘Come.’ And when Kepha had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Yahusha.”
– Mattithyahu (Matthew) 14:28-29, Halaleyah Scriptures
Yahusha didn’t say, “Sit and wait.” He said, “Come.”
The Mohegan Tribe believes the river speaks, calling us forward. Water never stays in one place—it carves, flows, nourishes. So should our faith.
Bold obedience is scary. It’s asking for healing when the diagnosis says otherwise. It’s starting the ministry when the budget is $0. It’s walking into your calling before you feel “ready.”
What Stops Us from Moving?
Fear
Doubt
Comfort
Tradition
The great Polish philosopher Henryk Skolimowski once said, “Faith is not waiting for life to happen; it is becoming life’s co-creator with Yahusha.”
Even in Buddhism, there is the belief in Right Action—moving ethically, mindfully, and with purpose.
You are not your past, your pain, or your paralysis. You are the present and the possibility of Yah.
“And without belief it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to Elohim has to believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who earnestly seek Him.”
– Ibrim (Hebrews) 11:6, Halaleyah Scriptures
Wounded Hands, Healing Touch
In our lineage, in our stories—whether from Poland or Africa, the Americas or Asia—there is suffering and survival.
Let us not hide our scars. Yahusha’s scars healed.
Like chakra centers, our wounds can become energy centers for healing others.
Let your story move others. Let your testimony walk.
Visit the American Museum of Natural History, and you’ll see evolution and transformation. Your faith must evolve too.
Time to Walk: Steps of Bold Obedience
Here’s how to stop talking and start walking:
Pray it, then do it. Faith without action is fantasy.
Write the vision. Put it in motion.
Seek counsel. From the Ruach, from elders, from wise friends.
Move while it’s uncomfortable. Growth rarely feels cozy.
“I have been young, and now I am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, Nor his seed begging bread.”
– Tehillim (Psalms) 37:25, Halaleyah Scriptures
Call to Action
Today, ask yourself: Am I walking or just talking?
Are you talking about helping others, or are you making that phone call?
Are you dreaming about writing a book or sitting down to write page one?
Are you praying for healing or walking in forgiveness and health?
Closing Prayer
Abba Yahusha, Heavenly Father, give us faith that walks, not just talks. Give us courage like Kepha, wisdom like Ya'aqob, and vision like Yoseph. Ignite our chakras with Your Ruach. Let us walk through museums of this world, not as still exhibits but as living testimonies. Empower WBJMinistries to walk boldly in Manhattan and beyond. May every cultural thread in our story—Polish, African, Indigenous, Buddhist—bring light to Your truth. HaleluYah.
