How does faith produce works in a believer's life?

Answered in 1 source

Faith produces works as a natural expression of the transformed heart empowered by the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 2:10 states that we are created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has prepared in advance for us to walk in them. Genuine faith is never stagnant; it is dynamic and expresses itself through love and good deeds. This aligns with James's teaching that faith without works is dead (James 2:26). When we are regenerated by the Holy Spirit, our desires change; thus, the works we undertake are evidence of our faith and assurance of our relationship with Christ. Our obedience to God’s commandments and acts of love towards others stem from the life-giving power of faith, demonstrating the transformative work of grace in our lives.
