18. 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.

19. For Our Consideration Do you believe God exists?
How great is your God? Is He able? Is He Sovereign?
Fear gives power to someone or some thing in our lives– Whom should we fear?
How do we gain more faith?
Do you believe He is a rewarder of those that seek Him?
