God Is Always Faithful

This reminds me of Ecclesiastes 12:13-14,“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: fear God and keep His commandments, for this is man’s all. For God will bring every work into judgment, including every secret thing, whether good or evil.”

This is why I think it is so important to pray first thing in the morning and include the Lord in our day, before we get so busy with our plans that we forget to include the Lord into our active lifestyle.  Can a believer or non-believer go about their day without consulting the Lord?  Sure they can, it happens every day.  Everyone has a choice to include the Lord in their day and their decisions or not.  But remember we have no idea of the situations and circumstances we will face today, or any day, but the Lord knows all things and He wants to be included in our lives every single day.  When we don’t allow the Lord into our lives each day by spending time with Him in prayer and Bible reading, we should not expect His help and His protection when we need it, but thank the Lord His Word says He is faithful even if we are not faithful.

It says this in 2 Timothy 2:11-13:

“This is a faithful saying:

For if we died with Him,

We shall also live with Him.

If we endure,

We shall also reign with Him.

If we deny Him,

He also will deny us.

If we are faithless,

He remains faithful;

He cannot deny Himself.”

There are going to be times in our Christian walk when we will face some very difficult times, even persecution, but we can know that God is faithful and will never leave us; in fact there is only one way that God will not help us and that is if we turn away from Him and refuse His help.  Everyone has a free will and because of that free will anyone can reject the Lord and go their own way if they choose to.  Think about this; what are you conveying if you leave the Lord out of your plans by not spending any time with Him in prayer and Bible study or just plain neglecting Him, is that the same as denying Him?  You be the judge.

Having a personal relationship with someone is not just ‘saying’ you have one, it is ‘showing’ it by your actions.  On the other hand, if you are striving to live a godly life and are overwhelmed with life’s circumstances and problems and it seems you have been depleted of all faith, you can be sure that the Lord will always remain faithful to you and to Himself.  If you are facing hardships, don’t try to handle them by yourself, include the Lord in your everyday struggles and get the victory over the things that seem to weigh you down and steal your victory.

The Lord says this in Matthew 11:28-30, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Read this also in 1 Peter 5:7, “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”

Remember the Lord will never leave you or forsake you because He will always be faithful to you and to His promises, because He is love and He loves you more than you will ever know.  Knowing this, don’t neglect to spend time with Him and start praising and thanking Him.  God bless you and may you have a super day!!  Something to think about!  Praise the Lord!!
