TO PLEASE GOD…(II) HEB 11:6

  • Heb 11:1 – 6
  • Abel pleased God, Enoch pleased God (Heb 11:4, Gen 4: 2-5, Gen 5:24)
  • For you to please God, you need faith.
  • Many people place their focus on material things, rendering the church and word of God powerless in their lives.
  • Where does faith come from? It comes from believing. You must believe in the invincible God.
  • God is good and unchanging (James 1:17)
  • He is the creator of everything.
  • The kingdom of God is not based on physical things
  • God changes times and seasons (Daniel 2:21) hence not bounded by time
  • You need to believe in God and seek him first before other things will be added (Matthew 6:33)
  • Only in believing him can you please him. 
  • 1Tim 6:16, 1:17 further describes the personality of God and no one/nothing else compares to him.
  • God is also a rewarder of people.
  • He rewards us with his presence if we seek him.
  • Take your eyes away from material things and focus fully on God and then he will provide all you need.
  • To find God, we need to seek him (Jer 29:13)
  • Come to him as you are but do not remain as you came.
  • God also rewards us with every good thing we need
  • So what is faith?
  • It is accepting and embracing the person of God even though/when you can’t see him.
  • Faith is obeying an invincible God with all that we have.
  • Faith is walking with him and doing all it takes to please him.
  • “ But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these. things shall be added unto you” – Matthew 6:33
