How Do You See God’s Faithfulness?


Memory Verse:
The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure. 1 Corinthians 10:13

How are you doing memorizing this?
The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience.
And God is faithful.
He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand.
When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.
1 Corinthians 10:13
Did you write it out three times?
Did you say it out loud?
Have you got a song for it…or changed the lyrics in a familiar song to this scripture? Try to sing it to the tune of “Amazing Grace”.

As His light shines down from Heaven...His grace flows to us.
…God is faithful. We can see example after example of God’s faithfulness—especially to the children of Israel—in scripture passages of the Old and New Testaments.
Understand, therefore, that the LORD your God is indeed God. He is the faithful God who keeps his covenant for a thousand generations and lavishes his unfailing love on those who love him and obey his commands. Deuteronomy 7:9

He is the Rock; his deeds are perfect. Everything he does is just and fair. He is a faithful God who does no wrong; how just and upright he is! Deuteronomy 32:4 

God will do this, for he is faithful to do what he says, and he has invited you into partnership with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Corinthians 1:9

Now may the God of peace make you holy in every way, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ comes again. God will make this happen, for he who calls you is faithful. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24

But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one. 2 Thessalonians 3:3

How do you see God’s faithfulness working in your life today? Do you feel His presence in your daily life? Are your prayers answered…or even if they are not answered, do feel that God has heard your prayers and has responded in another way? His ways are not always our ways…although He has promised to give us the desires of our hearts.
Trust in the LORD and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper. Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you your heart's desires. Commit everything you do to the LORD. Trust him, and he will help you. Psalm 37:3-5  

As John wrote in Revelation—Jesus is the Alpha and Omega…the beginning and the end…the Almighty One.  He is coming again. Watch and see. Be ready!
This letter is from John to the seven churches in the province of Asia. Grace and peace to you from the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come; from the sevenfold Spirit before his throne; and from Jesus Christ. He is the faithful witness to these things, the first to rise from the dead, and the ruler of all the kings of the world. All glory to him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by shedding his blood for us. He has made us a Kingdom of priests for God his Father. All glory and power to him forever and ever! Amen. Look! He comes with the clouds of heaven. And everyone will see him—even those who pierced him. And all the nations of the world will mourn for him. Yes! Amen! "I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end," says the Lord God. "I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come—the Almighty One." Revelation 1:4-8
God is faithful. He has promised that He will never leave us or forsake us (Deuteronomy 31:6 and Hebrew 13:5). We can trust Him to keep His word…to fulfill His promises.

Prayer ~ Lord God, may Your peace make me holy in every way, and may my whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless until my Savior Jesus Christ, the Messiah, comes again. God, I trust that You will make this happen, for You are faithful. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
