God Is Faithful





God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Corinthians 1:9

But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one. 2 Thessalonians 3:3

God has all power, and down through the ages He has done great and mighty things through the channel of faith.  By faith He  will work for those who put their trust in Him to bring them help and deliverance. He is God, and there is none as faithful and true as He. There is no searching of His understanding and He will make a way where there seems to be no way.  His ears are open to  the cry of the righteous. He is ready and able to provide from them. He is God, and there is none as faithful and true as He. His word is unchanging:

No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:4

Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24

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.  2 Timothy 2:11-13

Our God is faithful and true. He is dependable not only for today, but for all time and eternity. He cares like no one cares, and His works are indeed great. When the road of life is rough and our path is dim, we can trust God to make the way and shed His light on the way we are to go. We can rejoice in the mighty works of God. We are never alone. We are in the shelter of His loving arms day and night.  We can pray and believe Him for all of our needs to be met through the works of His mighty hands. We can thank him for the way that He is going to move for our loved ones and us in the days to come.

Yes our God is able to sanctify us completely and preserve blameless our whole spirit, soul and body. He is God Almighty, who is faithful to keep His covenant of love to a thousand generations of those that love Him and keep His commands.  He has made us to be the Temple of the Living God. He has have been made unto us wisdom, discernment, and understanding. He never gives up on us. He doesn’t turn His back on us or forsake us.  He is the only one who turns the curse into a blessing, only He can cause the truth to be known, only He can right the wrong.  His word is unchanging:

If You, LORD, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?  But there is forgiveness with You, That You may be feared.  I wait for the LORD, my soul waits,  And in His word I do hope.  My soul waits for the Lord  More than those who watch for the morning- Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.  O Israel, hope in the LORD;  For with the LORD there is mercy, And with Him is abundant redemption.  And He shall redeem Israel  From all his iniquities. Psalm 130:3-8

He has redeemed us from slavery of sin and Satan.  He will redeem us from the yokes, bondage, and slavery we have gotten ourselves into and bring us into His abundance if we will allow Him to do it. He will prepare a table before us in the presence of our enemies and anoint our head with oil and make our cup overflow if will ask Him too! Through the sacrifice of Christ we can have the benefits of God including goodness,  deliverance, healing, safety,  liberty, prosperity, peace, joy, love follow us all the days of our lives.  We can feast on the abundance of His House. God’s word is unchanging:

I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.  My soul shall make its boast in the LORD; The humble shall hear of it and be glad. Oh, magnify the LORD with me,  And let us exalt His name together. I sought the LORD, and He heard me, And delivered me from all my fears. They looked to Him and were radiant,  And their faces were not ashamed.  This poor man cried out, and the LORD heard him,  And saved him out of all his troubles.  The angel of the LORD encamps all around those who fear Him,  And delivers them. Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!  Oh, fear the LORD, you His saints!  There is no want to those who fear Him.  The young lions lack and suffer hunger;  But those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing. Psalm 34:1-10

How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!  Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings.  They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house,  And You give them drink from the river of Your pleasures.  For with You is the fountain of life;  In Your light we see light. Psalm 36:7-9

Yes, the LORD is faithful, righteous and just. His love reaches to the heavens, His faithfulness is as solid as mighty mountains and His judgments are as full of wisdom as the oceans with water. He will judge evil and care for us through eternity.  He became a curse for us so that we can be blessed. He became poor so that we might become rich. He triumphed over Satan so that we might be more than conquerors. He spoiled the devil and made a show of him taking away all the authority he had.  As a result the devil has been brought to naught. He is nothing, but we are Jesus own representative here on earth. We have His power and can act   in His name.  We are seated with Christ in heavenly places and can stand in the victory Jesus already won.  God’s word is unchanging:

"God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent.  Has He said, and will He not do?  Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good? Numbers 23:19

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,  casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,  and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

Yes, the weapons of our warfare are mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ we can bind the principalities the powers, the rulers of the darkness of this world. We can bind and cast down spiritual wickedness in high places and render them harmless and ineffective against us in the name of Jesus Christ, today.  We can declare that the blood of Jesus is of the utmost importance and we have childlike faith, God like faith.  We declare we walk in the spirit and do not fulfill the lust of the flesh in Jesus Christ Mighty Name, Amen.  God’s word is unchanging:

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.  Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Ephesians 6:10-13
