Our faith in God's faithfulness is never
disappointed. He will not give us the lusts of our flesh, but He always
abundantly provides for more than our needs (Ephesians 3:20).
If we pray anything according to His will, he hears
us and supplies (1 John 5:14). We cannot live fully without Christ living
within us. Paul realized this truth in his life (1 Corinthians 4:7).
Jesus’ disciples knew the truth of this statement too
(John 15:5). Joseph exemplified this when he interpreted Pharaoh’s dreams
(Genesis 41:16). Rebellious Jonah learned to trust the Lord, as the God of
heaven who made the sea and earth (Jonah 1:9).
God is always ready to listen to those who worship
Him and are willing to live in His will for their life (John 9:31). Blessed and
happy is everyone who worships the Lord and walks in His ways (Psalm 128:1).
Due to God's great faithfulness, His steadfast love
never ceases; His mercy never ends and is actually fresh with the dawn of each
new day (Lamentations 3:22-23).
Even when we fail in our faithfulness, it does not
negate the faithfulness of God; although, our poor witness does tarnish His
name and ours (Romans 3:3).
Our God is gracious and merciful, patient and full
of love and faithfulness (Psalm 86:15). He loves and protects those who keep
His commandments, and honors His covenant with them through a thousand
generations (Deuteronomy 7:9; Psalms 119:90).
Prayer:
Father God, You are our God. We earnestly seek You;
our soul thirsts for You, our body longs for You, as in a dry and weary land
where there is no water. You always provide us with everything we need to live
Godly in Christ Jesus.
I have seen You in the sanctuary and beheld Your
power and Your glory. Because Your love is better than life, my lips will
glorify You. I will praise You as long as I live, and in Your name I will lift
up my hands" (Psalm 63:1-4).
Thought for the Day:
True disciples long for God more than life itself
and seek His love and grace as we glorify Him in all that we think, say and do.
