There is a saying, 'You can dream when you sleep, but sleeping can't make your dream come true.' It tells you that your work to achieve your dreams is very important. It is the same with faith. Since faith without works is dead faith, dead faith can't bring down answers to your prayers, and it won't guarantee your salvation. That's why God puts emphasis on the importance of works. I hope you may possess living faith that is accompanied with works so that you cannot only receive salvation but also enjoy prosperity in everything you do.
"You see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was perfected" (James 2:22).
