READ: Hebrews 11:5-6

By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.” – Hebrews 11:5

The key to pleasing God is to please Him in big things and in little things. Never forget this truth: to serve God properly is to serve Him in little things as well as in big things. He that is faithful in little is also faithful in much. When you please God in little things you also please Him in much.

Enoch pleased God! I do not believe that Enoch lived a natural life. His whole life was oriented towards pleasing God. For Enoch to have pleased God, he must have done the big things as well as the little things.

Once I was waiting on God and I remember listening to a message by Derek Prince. He spoke about when God called him. He said God told him, “You must please me in little things and also in big things.” Those words went through my heart. I realised how important it was to please God in little things and also in big things. I began to search my life to see the little things and the big things that God had asked me to do.

Indeed, pleasing anyone will always involve little things and big things. You may do big things but if you leave out the little things, you will not please the person you are trying to please. If you want to please God, you will have to obey Him in big things as well as little things.
