The Faithfulness of God

 Introduction  The Eternal God  The Immutable God  The Omnipotent God  The Omniscient God  The Omnipresent God  The Holy God  The Sovereign God  The Love of God  The Faithfulness of God  The Comfort of God

 The faithfulness of God means that God will never desert us nor forsake us.  It means that He will stick by us whether we are doing well or doing poorly, whether we are on the top of the spiritual mountain or down in the valley.  God is always available. Walter Winchell said, “A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.”

Romans 3  We are unrighteous  We do not seek for God  We are useless  We do not do good  We are deceitful  We do not fear God  We are sinners Ephesians 2  We are dead in our sins  We live in the lusts of our flesh  We are by nature children of wrath

Psalm When my heart was embittered And I was pierced within, 22 Then I was senseless and ignorant; I was like a beast before You. 23 Nevertheless I am continually with You; You have taken hold of my right hand.

If God accepted us as unforgiven sinners then what would induce Him to leave us as forgiven saints? God is infinitely invested in us; He bought us with His Son. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

 Do you sometimes think that God has abandoned you?  Do you wonder if you might have lost your salvation?  Do you sometimes think that you’ve been so bad that God no longer loves you? Then study and mediate on God’s faithfulness. It will change your life.

1 Corinthians 3: For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if any man builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13 each man's work will become evident; for the day will show it because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each man's work. 14 If any man's work which he has built on it remains, he will receive a reward. 15 If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.

2 Timothy 2:13 If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself. Our Security of Salvation = (My character x 0%) + (God’s character x 100%) Our Security of Salvation = God’s character

Hebrews 13:5 “I WILL NEVER DESERT YOU, NOR WILL I EVER FORSAKE YOU.” 1 John 5:13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.

Philippians 1:6 For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.

John 15:11 These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.

Psalm 91:2 I will say to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!”

Psalm 119:67, 75 Before I was afflicted I went astray, But now I keep Your word. I know, O LORD, that Your judgments are righteous, And that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.

1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.

Proverbs 7:22 Suddenly he follows her As an ox goes to the slaughter, Or as one in fetters to the discipline of a fool.

He is in the details of our lives. John 15:15 No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you.

Psalm 91:4 He will cover you with His pinions, And under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark.

Lamentations 3: Surely my soul remembers And is bowed down within me. 21 This I recall to my mind, Therefore I have hope. 22 The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. 23 They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.

1) In addition to the ones discussed above, what are some other assurances that God’s faithfulness means to us? 2) How does knowing that God is faithful help us through difficult times? 3) Is God still faithful to us when we are in sin or does He leave us only to return when we repent?

4) What are some ways that God has proven His faithfulness to you personally? 5) Who are some people in the Bible that God proved His faithfulness to? 6) If God is so faithful then how come some people claim that in their darkest hour they felt as though God were not there at all?

7) If God has promised to be faithful no matter what then why cannot we use that as an excuse to do whatever we want? 8) What is the difference between God’s faithfulness (God will never leave nor forsake us) and God’s omnipresence (God is everywhere)? 9) What are some practical ways that we can be faithful to other people the way that God is faithful to us?

Elizabeth’s father abandoned her family when she was eight years old. As a result she has had a hard time keeping friends. When she feels that someone is getting too close to her she will say harsh things to that person and become distant. She is often lonely and many times it is obvious that she longs for a close friendship. You have been getting close to her and you are starting to see her doing the same thing to you. The other day she insulted your clothes and you have left several friendly but unanswered messages in the last two weeks. When you started to get to know her you knew that she is like this and you promised yourself that you would stick it out and show her that you are a loyal friend. You know that she is hurting and that her behavior is a defense mechanism to avoid being hurt, but it is difficult to endure the growing insults and cold shoulder. You decide that rather then pull away from her like everyone else you will talk to her. What will you say to her and can you incorporate God’s faithfulness into your discussion?
