‘Faithfulness’ February 16, 2014 Pastor Mark

“But the incomprehensibility of the Divine nature is not a reason why we should desist from reverent inquiry and prayerful strivings to apprehend what He has so graciously revealed to Himself in His Word. Because we are unable to acquire perfect knowledge, it would be folly to say we will therefore make no efforts to attain to any degree of it.” Charles Pink

“Nothing will so enlarge the intellect, nothing so magnify the whole soul of man, as a devout, earnest, continued, investigation of the great subject of the Deity. The most excellent study for expanding the soul is the science of Christ and Him crucified and the knowledge of the Godhead in the glorious trinity.” Charles Haddon Spurgeon

B90X 2014 Luke 17:5 “increase our faith!”

Genesis 8:22 “As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.”

Faithfulness – aman (Hebrew) range of meanings- “to be firm, trustworthy, safe, faithful, reliable.”

Exodus 34:5-7 “the Lord, the Lord the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands and forgiving wickedness, rebellion, and sin.”

Of the 68 uses of faithfulness in the Bible, 38 of them are in Psalms alone.

Psalm 26:3 for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.

Psalm 36:5 Your love, L ORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.

Psalm 40:11 Do not withhold your mercy from me, L ORD ; may your love and faithfulness always protect me.

Psalm 57:3 He sends from heaven and saves me, rebuking those who hotly pursue me— God sends forth his love and his faithfulness.

Psalm 86:11 Teach me your way, L ORD, that I may rely on your faithfulness; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name.

1 Corinthians 15:49 And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man, so shall we bear the image of the heavenly man.

2 Corinthians 3:18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever- increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

Amen.
