But someone will say, “You have faith; I have works.” Show me your faith without works, and I will show you my faith by works. James 2:18
My God, I address you with this prayer of operative faith because I know, dear God, that I must continue obeying you. Although, my God, I know that my works are like filthy rags, not obtaining justification of themselves, I do them out of love for the Lord. I know, my holy God, that the righteous live by faith, but if that faith is not operative through works there is something wrong with it. So I want to move forward, live a life of obedience to your sacred word, not making excuses. So now forgive my sins, strengthen my soul and help me to walk uprightly in your path.
