Hebrews 11:6 Without Faith, it is impossible to please God.
Jesus is no respecter of persons; He is a respecter of Faith. 
Almost without exception He commended the Faith of those to  
whom He gave His healing touch. He did not comment on their  
prayers, their sincerity or even their tears, but always on  
their faith. 
On the centurion's faith He said, "I have not found so great  
faith, no, not in Isreal" (Matthew 8"10). 
To the woman who touched the hem of His garment, He said,  
"Thy faith has made thee whole" (Matthew 9"22). 
To the blind men who asked for their sight, He said, "According  
to your faith be it unto you" (Matthew 9:29). 
 To the Syrophoenician woman He said, "Great is thy faith" 
(Matthew 15:28).
