Bible Note: Fortunately, He not only informs us how to please Him, but He empowers us to do so as well: I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving. This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs. (Psalms 69:30-31 KJV) Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? (Micah 6:7-8 KJV) So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. (Romans 8:8 KJV) That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; (Colossians 1:10 KJV) But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. (Hebrews 11:6; 13:16 KJV) According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: (2 Peter 1:3 KJV) "'His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him...' It is our knowledge of God, Peter is saying, that is the primary fuel for godliness. To avoid theology therefore, is to be 'ungodly.'" --Shane Rosenthal "Just as the sinner's despair of any hope from himself is the first prerequisite of a sound conversion, so the loss of all confidence in himself is the first essential in the believer's growth in grace." --Arthur W.
