Hebrews 11:6 ~ “It’s impossible to please God without faith because the one who draws near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards people who try to find him.” (Common English Bible)
Why is it that we can quote all of the biblical clichés, yet when we’re faced with trials, we struggle with unbelief? We say that “God owns the cattle on a thousand hills”, but we worry when our bills are more than our paycheck. We say, “I’m the head and not the tail”, yet we won’t apply for the position because we feel we’re not qualified. We’re quick to say, “By His stripes I’m healed”, but when bad news comes from the doctor we lose hope. I want to remind you today that it is impossible to please God without faith. We must believe, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that He is God. We must believe that He is able to provide all of our needs. We have to believe that He will add ALL things unto us when we seek His face, His kingdom and His righteousness. We have to believe in Him! Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things unseen. (Heb 11:1) Believe you’re financially stable although we’re in a recession. Believe you’re healed when your test results are unfavorable. Believe in yes when the world says no. He's not asking for much.....all it takes is a mustard seed to please Him!
