One aspect of GOD’s character is faithfulness.
One Word is not enough to describe GOD.
GOD is many, many things, and faithful is just one of them.
As sinful, fallen people, we may doubt His faithfulness; or not fully trust it at times. We experience hard times like the loss of a job, a broken marriage, or financial struggle; and we began to question things. However, GOD is always faithful.
Here are three ways we can better understand how GOD is always faithful:
1. His faithfulness is constant, like the moon in the sky.
It shall be established forever like the moon, and the witness in the sky is faithful. - Psalm 89:372. GOD’s faithfulness makes it possible to trust Him with the details.
GOD has placed a constant reminder of His faithfulness in the sky. It may seem strange to think of the moon as a reminder of faithfulness, but remember that GOD created this good world for us to live in and enjoy.
Did you know that the moon stabilizes the rotation of the earth? All of our being depends on GOD’s intricate design! It is over time that we begin to realize that He can be trusted to be who He says He is.
His faithfulness can be known through His creation. Imagine all the detail that went into making our world! Continue to look at the moon as an example of who GOD is, how He loves us, and the way He has made the world for us to live in.
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with My eye on you. - Psalm 32:83. GOD is faithful to provide.
Once we begin to trust GOD’s faithfulness, to know that GOD is who He says He is, and that He will do what He says He will do; we can begin to realize that He also has a very detailed and intimate interest in each of us.
Not only does GOD give us creation for us to enjoy, but He is also aware of every detail in our lives, and we can trust His faithfulness with details. He watches over us, teaches us, guides us, and cares for us as only He can.
Our lives are as important to Him as His creation, and we can trust in His faithfulness!
He found him in a desert land and in the howling waste of a wilderness; He encircled him, He cared for him, He guarded him as the pupil of His eye. Like an eagle that stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, He spread His wings and caught them, He carried them on His pinions. The Lord alone guided him… - Deuteronomy 32:10-11
These verses refer to how GOD led Israel through the desert and provided for them.
Provisions are another example of how GOD always works on our behalf, even in ways we don’t realize!
He works in the visible and invisible world.
He knows how fragile we are, and He is aware
that we cannot make it on our own.
We are surrounded by His faithfulness, and we would not exist without Him.
Praise His holy name!
