October 29, 2024 – God Preserves the Faithful
Psalm 31:23
Sermon: 1795 God Give Us Faithful Men
Pray Over This
“Oh, love the LORD, all you His saints! For the LORD preserves the faithful, and fully repays the proud person.”
Psalm 31:23
Ponder This
Many years ago, my wife and I visited Yellowstone National Park. We were fortunate to stay in the old lodge just outside the geyser known as Old Faithful. Every sixty-five minutes, it would spew water a hundred and seventy feet in the air. You could set your watch by it. Now, there were more spectacular geysers in the park, but people love this one because, as the name suggests, it can be counted on.
Faithfulness is a basic, fundamental ingredient of character. You will not know God’s blessing apart from faithfulness. You want God to watch over you and take care of you? God preserves the faithful. Faithfulness is God’s requirement for your stewardship. Faithfulness is God’s measurement for your blessing.
One day, we’re going to stand before God, and the reward or the lack of reward will be according to our faithfulness. I want to hear Jesus say to me, “Adrian, well done my good and faithful servant.” Do you have that same desire? Faithful people are people who can be counted on to live with integrity, not just in our relationship with God but in our relationships with others too.
- What does faithfulness look like in your everyday life? Why is it important to keep growing in faithfulness?
- How have you struggled with faithfulness? What could help you remain faithful when life is hard?
