Assistant, what are the works of Faith

Attending a meeting where they spoke of the Faith without works, I thought to myself, “This is a very serious subject and it’ll be an excellent post for the assistants.” And here I am writing to you on this subject, so you can open your spiritual eyes in relation to the Work of God.
The truth is that when we talk about Works, what comes to mind for many is that they are linked to miracles, attending, evangelization, casting out demons, that deep down are very important and should be motivated. However, if they were carried out without the actual works, which God requires of each of us—they are worth nothing!
But after all, what Works are the ones that God expects of us?
Notice what is written:
” You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? “(James 2: 20,21)?
Now bear with me: What miracles; what demons were cast out; what evangelization did Abraham do?!
He made the greatest of all miracles, which was to live a life of Obedience, Sacrifice, Surrendering and of Word. That is why he is considered the Father of our Faith! These are the works that truly please God!
Now I ask: Have you truly and in fact practiced these works, or are they just in your consciousness?
I await your comment.

This is so true, we need to be the work. It’s not so much about doing but being. We be then do as Jesus said let Your will be done, so first came be then do

Hi Ms,
What I understood by reading the message, is that doesn’t matter how much works I do, If I’m not obedient to the word of God and sacrifice then I’m not pleasing Him.

God wants from us obedience, sacrifice…
Healing people in His name, casting out demons is not what pleases Him if not having the real work that He wants from us.
Thanks for sharing.

This is very interesting because Abraham was considered the Father of Faith. Truly the works God means are those within us first before the ones we do outwardly! I learnt something deep in this!

What an important message which we can really learn from our father of faith Abraham. I myself do my best to apply but can improve in the the work and obedience because it is so easy to think everything is ok. I want to be humble to apply these to my life and please God.
