Heartfelt Worship…
1. Challenges Me
By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain did.
Hebrews 11:4 (CSB)
Now Abel became a shepherd of flocks, but Cain worked the ground. 3 In the course of time Cain presented some of the land’s produce as an offering to the Lord. 4 And Abel also presented an offering—some of the firstborn of his flock and their fat portions. The Lord had regard for Abel and his offering, 5 but he did not have regard for Cain and his offering. Cain was furious, and he looked despondent.
Genesis 4:2-5 (CSB)
Woe to them! For they have traveled in the way of Cain, have abandoned themselves to the error of Balaam for profit, and have perished in Korah’s rebellion.
Jude 11 (CSB)
2. Pleases God
By faith he was approved as a righteous man, because God approved his gifts…
Hebrews 11:4 (CSB)
Now without faith it is impossible to please God, for the one who draws near to Him must believe that He exists and rewards those who seek Him.
Hebrews 11:6 (CSB)
3. Encourages Others
…and even though he is dead, he still speaks through his faith.
Hebrews 11:4 (CSB)
And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
2 Timothy 2:2 (CSB)
