However faith is always connected with action as Paul did in the book of Hebrews. Faith is not static so ‘by faith Abraham...obeyed’ and left his home land.

Exactly. Faith is NOT static, it is DYNAMIC as you opined.

“Even so Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness.”(Galatians 3:6)

Abraham was called by God to move out of the land of his fathers. He did so. What God told Abraham to do, he did it (sometimes not so perfect but he did it). Faith in action. Faith also implies FAITHFULNESS.
