Again, the Bible tells us that God is faithful, and it can be seen in many verses such as (Exodus 34:6) (Psalm100:5) (Psalm 117:2).God is faithful to His name – (Psalm 106:8). What we can see always the Scriptures is that God is faithful to His character, always! One of the most powerful words to describe God’s character is the Hebrew word “hesed” which is translated “steadfast love” (Deuteronomy 7:9). He is known as a God who is upright, therefore we can trust that He will …
(Psalm 89:30-37)…..30 “If his sons forsake My law and do not walk in My judgments,
31 If they break My statutes
And do not keep My commandments, 32 Then I will punish their transgression with the rod,
and their iniquity with stripes. 33 Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not utterly take from him,
Nor allow My faithfulness to fail. 34 My covenant I will not break, nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips. 35 Once I have sworn by My holiness; I will not lie to David: 36 His seed shall …
The Lord said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and be on your way; I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to be king.” 2 But Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears about it, he will kill me.” The Lord said, “Take a heifer with you and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to the Lord.’ 3 Invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what to do. You are to …
19 The churches in the province of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Priscilla greet you warmly in the Lord, and so does the church that meets at their house. 20 All the brothers and sisters here send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss. 21 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand. 22 If anyone does not love the Lord, let that person be cursed! Come, Lord! 23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. 24 My love to all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen. …
The Bible teaches us that true gratitude has a price: “Let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare His works with rejoicing” (Psalm 107:22). At first glance, that command may seem peculiar to us. “Sacrifices of thanksgiving? I thought we were thankful because we don’t have to sacrifice.” But the truth is that when we are thankful as we should be, we will be “moved” to sacrifice. In the first century of the church, the Christians in Macedonia were very poor. Yet, when they heard about the desperate …
James 1:21-27)…..21 Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is …

This morning let’s look at Paul’s words of exortation to Timothy, his young disciple in Christ, saying (2 Timothy 4:2 to, “Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.” Now someone might ask, Why should we preach the Word?Let me just say, preaching is important to God! The Bible says that God has “manifested His word through preaching” (Titus 1:3). Jesus told his disciples that “repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name beginning at Jerusalem” …
(Psalm 33:10-17)…..The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. 11 The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart to all generations. 12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance. 13 The Lord looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men. 14 From the place of His dwelling He looks on all the inhabitants of the earth; 15 He fashions their hearts individually; He considers all their works. 16 No king is saved by the multitude of …
(1 Corinthians 1:4-9)….4 I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, 5 that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge, 6 even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, 7 so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ, 8 who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 God is faithful, by whom you were …
