God is Faithful

GOD IS FAITHFUL … 1 Corinthians 10:13b

From 1 Corinthians 10:1-14 we see many ways in which God is faithful:

God made a dry path through the Red Sea for Moses and the Hebrews to walk through.
God fed Moses and the Hebrews in the wilderness.
God provided for their physical and spiritual thirst.
God faithfully gave us the Old Testament so we would be able to learn and not make the same mistakes many made in the past.
God enables us to overcome every temptation.
God makes a way for us to escape every temptation.
God directs us to flee idolatry (covetousness, Col. 3:5). He, therefore, enables us to flee. We can faithfully obey God because we know He is faithful.

Some other verses that attest to God’s faithfulness:

Deuteronomy 7:9 Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
1 Corinthians 1:9 God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
2 Thessalonians 3:3 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.
Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
Hebrews 11:11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
Jesus is called the “faithful and true witness” – Rev. 3:14
Jesus is called “Faithful and True” – Rev. 19:11

God’s expectation of us is that we be faithful:

Psalm 31:23a O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful …
Psalm 101:6 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
Matthew 25:21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
Those who are with the Lamb (Jesus) are faithful. Rev. 17:14.
