He Has Magnified His Word, Psalm 138:2

Faith Pleases God

Heb 11:5-6, 5 By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, “..; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, …

Enoch by faith walked with God 300 years (Gen 5:22) and the first saint to never taste death. That is faithfulness through out the years of walking. He pleased God in his walk for without faith, it is IMPOSSIBLE to please Him. Faith was the ground of his pleasing God; and his pleasing God was the ground of his translation. Those that have faith shall not die but live forever more for they have eternal life. The just shall live by faith.

As we walk with God by faith in this sinful world, we are pleasing to Him, His favor and honor is upon us. Heb 10:38 “Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.” In other words, he who by faith is righteous shall live like Enoch for he pleases the Lord.
