RELY ON HIS FAITHFULNESS

Daily Thought

Your Word for 16 September 2024

Job 5:8
‘If I were you, I would go to God and present my case to Him.’

As we trust God we need to constantly remind ourselves of this great aspect of His character – His faithfulness. Faithfulness, by explanation, is the concept of God remaining unfailingly loyal to someone (you), and then putting that loyalty into consistent practice regardless of circumstances.

1 Corinthians 1:9‘God is faithful!’

The will of God will never take you, where the grace (faithfulness) of God cannot keep you. Sometimes when we hit troubled times we resign ourselves to the idea that God has abandoned or forgotten us. Nothing could be further from the truth. Troubled times are times when we can expect His faithfulness to still be there and to carry us. Don’t expect the worst, expect His faithfulness and it will surprise you what the Lord will do. When we remind ourselves of His great power, fear has only got one option and that is to lift off us and leave us. If we remind ourselves of His faithfulness and rely on that faithfulness, we will find a conviction in our hearts and fear will have to give way.

EXPECT THE MIGHTY WORKING POWER OF GOD TO BE ACTIVE IN YOUR LIFE AND SITUATION
Sometimes we limit God and don’t really believe that His mighty working power and faithfulness can see us through. This needs to change and we should begin to expect that out of His faithfulness there will be divine intervention.

Psalm 91:11‘For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.’

Can you imagine that the Lord will instruct His angels to be there with you and to guarantee His faithfulness to you. We need to begin to believe this and by faith to expect it in our lives.

Psalm 34:7‘The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and He delivers them.’

Chris Tomlin sang this song: GOD OF ANGEL ARMIES. The chorus says: ‘I know Who goes before me, I know Who stands behind, the God of angel armies is always by my side.’ Passion – Whom Shall I Fear [God of Angel Armies] [feat. Chris Tomlin] – YouTube We need to choose to live with this reality burning in our own hearts.
