Are You Faithful?


Wisdom to Change 
Faithful in all things 1Timothy 3:11b 

What does faithful mean? I found several words that really bring out the
meaning of faithful. Faithful means adhering firmly and devotedly as to a
person, cause, or idea, loyal, having or full of faith, worthy of trust or
belief, reliable, consistent with truth or actuality. As we adhere firmly
to God, devoted to him and him alone, having the God kind of faith, we
will see consistent results as we belief and rely on the Father through
His Word. Without fail, I know many of you reading this; have found God to
be faithful in your life. Am I right? Well, has God found you to be
faithful to him? Can God say this about us that we are faithful to His
Word, faithful to believe in Him, faithful to live right, faithful to
trust Him totally or faithful to resist the sin? 

Being faithful should be a way of life for us. It should come so natural;
people want to know how we are able to do it? It’s our choice if we want
to be faithful in serving and living for God. It’s our choice if we want
to be faithful to His Word, faithful to obey when He speaks, faithful to
pray and faithful to live a chaste, pure and committed life. And when we
are faithful, there are benefits God wants to bestow upon us. If we are
faithful we will abound in blessings. If we are faithful over a few
things, the Father himself will make us ruler over many things. If we are
faithful to hear, do and obey, God himself will command blessings to come
upon us and overtake us in every area of our lives. So, you can image if
we are not faithful to His Word, what comes with that. 

In Deuteronomy 7:9, you find a great example of God’s faithfulness towards
us. Therefore we ought to know that the Lord our God, He is God, the
Faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with
those who love Him and keep commandments. God is faithful to keep His Word
towards us and to our children's children on down to a thousand
generations as we stay faithful and keep His commandments. Let me leave
you with this thought, as long as you remain faithful to God and agree
with Him it will always be good for your soul. 

Have a Beautiful Day
