Forward Email to a Friend Monday, July 14 Pleasing God For before [Enoch] was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God. Hebrews 11:5b Recommended Reading Genesis 5:21-24 It is the classic theme of world literature -- the need of a lesser being to please a greater being. Whether the greater being is a king, tyrant, ogre, or fantastical being, the subjects need is to discover what the ruler demands and do it. Tension in the story builds as it looks less and less likely that the subject will be able to please the ruler. The Bible is part of world literature, and it shares that theme with other great stories. The Bibles story -- the necessity for man to please God -- is at the same time more and less dramatic. First, God requires only one thing to be pleased: But without faith it is impossible to please Him (Hebrews 11:6). Everything else we might do to please the Creator God does not qualify unless preceded by faith. Second, there is a dramatic crisis and solution: God becomes a human being so dedicated to God that He lives a perfectly faithful life and dies to pay for the faithlessness of all other men. The life of pleasing God is illustrated simply by Enoch: He pleased God. If it is your desire to please God, always begin with faith. Our belief in Him seems to bring Him more pleasure than anything else. A deep and sober daily concern to please God is the rarest of rarities.
