Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

faith can be defined as being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see (Hebrews 11). faith is what pleases God meaning to please God is to have faith! indeed Abraham believed God and it was credited to him as Righteousness( Romans 4:3). our Righteousness is not by works but by faith. the scripture says that "the Just shall live by faith"
a prayer made therefore in faith pleases God. that means God will not fail to answer prayer that pleases Him! many times we go through hard stuff but only our f faith takes us through. faith rebuts every ,doubt,accusation, condemnation, guilt from the enemy. the above elements fight our faith. they take our attention from God but we have to conquer such with faith by taking up the shield of faith, with which we can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one(Ephesians 6:16)having faith does not only mean praying and believing God for answering our prayers its about us "not leaving God no matter what".God promises not to leave us or forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). if God assures us of Himself not leaving us then we shouldn't leave God because He cant leave us. "God wants us to trust Him with anything".the biggest enemy of faith is doubt and fear when peter looked at Jesus, he walked on water a thing which seemed impossible according to nature but when doubt and fear stepped when he looked at the stormy wind, he fell and almost sank!(Mathew 14:22-23) when we look to Jesus with faith all things are possible. refuse to look at the problems around you but look to Jesus who is bigger than them. you are more than a conqueror! Christ is faithful to you and he also believes you. Remember "all things are possible to them that believe"(Mark 9:23)
