GOD IS FAITHFUL
He is faithful
.. Heb 10:23
God is faithful
- 1 Cor
1:9
The Lord is faithful
2Thess
3:3
If God is so
faithful to us, we ought to be faithful to Him. We are dependent
upon Him for grace to hold fast our profession. If He were
unfaithful, we would not have the strength to do so. But this He
never does.
Perhaps we need
to be reassured of God’s faithfulness towards us. Our many failures
to be true to Him may cause us to question if He remains faithful to
us. If troubled by such thoughts, it is good for us to rest on the
fact that His faithfulness depends not on what we are, but on who He
is. Since He is the God of truth, He is utterly reliable and
trustworthy!
Our faith may
be tried, but He never forgets, never fails and never falters. Our
hearts may be fearful for what lies ahead, but we can rest upon His
faithfulness.
It is a great
comfort to know that “the
Lord changes not” and that in Him
we have a High Priest who is “touched
with (has compassion upon or
suffers with) the
feeling of our infirmities”. We
can “therefore
come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and
find grace to help in time of need”
(Heb 4:15-16).
Many are the
wanderings of our hearts, but we are kept by His faithfulness, not
by our own efforts. God’s faithfulness is great indeed.
