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."
The quintessence of our relationship with God through Christ is found in this verse. Our introduction to the Gospel comes through faith, to which we believe in God's existence but, even more so, without faith drawing near God is an impossibility. In terms of the necessities of worship, faith is sine qua non, that without which worship could not take place at all.
Because of this, there is one prayer that takes precedent over all others:
God, please forgive me my doubt and help me to believe.
