Why God Is Faithful

People in life will let you down. It’s sad, but it’s also true. 

We’re never to be suspicious of others or expect them to let us down (love believes the best in others). However, most of us have experienced the letdown of an unfaithful person in our lives in one way or another.

That’s what makes God so special. 

He will NEVER let you down. He is ALWAYS faithful. Faithful to you, faithful to His promises, faithful to every single word He says. There is so much power and comfort in His faithfulness to us.

The Bible tells us that God is trustworthy, reliable and unchangeable (see today’s reading). He is the Lord who changes not, and Hebrews 13:8 says Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. That’s faithfulness!

Why is it so important that you see God as faithful?

Because faith in Him (and His faithfulness) is the only way to please Him and the only way to receive every blessing He has for you. 

God is still the same as He’s always been. If He says to us in the Scriptures that something won’t work, and we choose to do it anyway, our lives aren’t going to work in that area. If He tells us certain behaviors and attitudes will bring a certain result, that’s the way it’s going to be. 

God won’t change His Word and His ways to accommodate us, because He’s the same yesterday, today and forever. 

If someone is going to change, it will have to be us!
