Real Hope: Constant Godಮಾದರಿ

Yesterday, Today, Forever

The Bible paints a very clear picture of an unchanging nature of God, and the constancy of His character. God is not subject to the whims of the world or the passing of time; He remains constant and steadfast throughout all ages. In the Old Testament, God revealed Himself as the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Exodus 3:6), a constant reminder of His faithfulness to His promises and His people. In the New Testament, Jesus Christ is described as ‘the same yesterday and today and forever’ (Hebrews 13:8) showing that God’s constancy is revealed through His Son, who is the exact representation of His nature (Hebrews 1:3).

God is always present with His people, even in times of trouble. Psalm 46:1–3 (NIV) says, ‘God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore, we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.’

God is a constant refuge and source of strength in the midst of life’s challenges. God’s love and mercy never change. Lamentations 3:22–23 says, ‘Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.’

God’s love and mercy are never-ending, and they are available to us each and every day. The unchanging nature of God’s character assures us of His faithfulness and His presence with us. As we trust in Him, we can be confident that He will always be with us, guiding us through life’s challenges and leading us into a closer relationship with Him.
