Application for Nov 24-25, 2012 :: Hebrews 11:6

===


Hebrews 11:6

And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

===

In his book, Practicing Affirmation, Pastor Sam Crabtree wrote,

Rewards are a big deal in God’s economy. You can’t even come to God unless you believe that he rewards.

Honestly, I’m not sure I would believe such a strong statement. But then he quotes this week’s fighter verse. There it is in black and white: Whoever would draw near to God must believe that he rewards those who seek him.

This is comforting. We are not sinful or selfish to want reward from God. Rather, we are told we must believe that he rewards.
