The Scripture makes it very clear that as we focus on purity we experience power from above. Paul stressed this in his final letter to his understudy Timothy. “Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter [i.e., “iniquity”], he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work” (2Ti 2:21). How? The process is simple: God the Father works through the Son. The Son works through the Holy Spirit. The Spirit works through the Word. The Word works through the believer. The believer works through living faith.

Joshua # 09 -- Jos 6:1
Salvation mostly means deliverance in New Testament (Phi 1:12-14, Phi 1:19-20, Phi 2:12-13, Jam 1:21). Paul sees salvation as sustaining him through dangers and threat so that he could be a bold witness who is not ashamed. The special protective hand of God is there when a believer is obedient (Phi 2:13). Worship means I am willing to lose my life, lay it down, to find what He promises. The greatest security we have is in seeking the plan of God. Rahab knew that God was able to save her life if he had already saved her soul. Jos 6:1
