Faithful Now 

Have you ever doubted your faith? If you are like most of us, you have. There’s likely been a trial, circumstance, or situation that caused you to doubt God’s faithfulness in your life. It’s easy to have faith when life is going well but when hardship strikes, we can easily be spun into cycles of doubt. 

God knows this about us and provides the antidote in His Word: a memorial. It may sound odd, but memorializing God’s faithfulness in the past is the very thing that fuels our faith in God for the future. In Joshua 4, God’s people crossed the Jordan river and after crossing they built a stone memorial.

“Pass on before the ark of the Lord your God into the midst of the Jordan, and take up each of you a stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the people of Israel, that this may be a sign among you. When your children ask in time to come, ‘What do those stones mean to you’? Then you shall tell them that the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the Lord. When it passed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. So these stones shall be to the people of Israel a memorial forever.”

As you consider the impossible giants ahead of you, are you remembering the tombstones of those the Lord slayed in the past? Take a minute today to reflect on the stones of God’s past faithfulness to you. Maybe it was a stone of provision, a stone of healing, or a stone of protection.

God’s reputation is at stake, and He’s not about to break His streak of perfection. His faithfulness to you in your past is His guarantee to be faithful in the future. Build your faith today using the stones of God’s faithfulness in your past.

If He was faithful then, He’ll be faithful now.
