Read Hebrews 11 Examples of Faith

But 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 Him. (Hebrews 11:6 NKJV)

What pleases God? Is not offering something that we possessed. He doesnt need anything because He is the Creator. What pleases God is faith. Faith is a gift of God. Nothing we can do to manufacture faith. It comes through the hearing of Gods word. The contrast to faith is fear. When there is faith, there is rest. When we trust God and letting Him have His way in our lives, we will see God is at work with His pleasure

Faith has an object to base on. It is on Christ whom God pleases. It pleases God to have all His fullness dwelling on Him, to bruise Him for our behalf, to preach Him (

Knowing Him as our Rewarder. He rewards us for our good. He has given us Himself that is our salvation; will He not freely give us all things including our reputation, favour with God and men. For the LORD will not forsake His people, for His great names sake, because it has pleased the LORD to make you His people. (I Samuel

We receive through our diligence in focusing on Him instead of self. Holding on to something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don't have Christ is the object and substance of our faith.

Prayer: Lord not just my confession affirming who You are but faith that I acted in diligence to Your word. This comes when I transfer the attempting to trust my effort to win and take pride as a good man to trusting You be the Vindicator and the One other glorify.
