WHAT PLEASES GOD IS YOUR FAITH
“Without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Himâ€
Hebrews 11: 6
Main Text:
Have you ever thought about what pleases God? The Bible tells us that God is pleased by your faith in Him. He is pleased when you believe His Word, when you trust that He rewards the people who seek after righteousness. Our expression of faith is the show of God’s ability in what we cannot achieve by our effort. We relate with God by faith, therefore, our relationship with one another is important to God. As His children, He desires that we live in unity and stay connected with one another. When we walk in love and unity, our prayers becomes more effective and His power is released through us then we open the door for God to have His way.
God has equipped every person with a measure of faith. He’s given us all the ability to live a life that is pleasing to Him. Our part is to work with Him to allow that faith to grow in our lives. The Bible says in Romans that faith comes by hearing the Word of God. In other word, faith begins where the will of God is known. When you know that God’s will is for you to be saved, it ignites faith in your heart.
Like a seed in the ground, your faith can grow and spread all over. Just like a mustard seed, as small as it is, wherever it drops, it ensures it conquers the ground. When you develop the habit of reading God’s Word, you are watering the seed of faith. When you stay connected to a good, Bible–based church like The Father’s House Church, it’s like adding nutrients for those seeds of faith to grow. Give more time to the study of the word of God so as to experience the power of the prevailing Word in this 2018.
Prayer: I will always please You in all I do O Lord.
