"I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy
faithfulness to all generations." Psalm 89:1
As I was praying about what to say to you this morning, I
reflected back on the faithfulness of God. I am not sure how long I have been
writing the devotional each morning. It has been at least fourteen years or
longer. In all that time I can truthfully say the Lord has never once let me
down by not giving me what to say. He has also given me the word He has for
us. He truly is faithful as promised. The Bible says, "Faithful is He who
called you, who also will do it." (1 Thessalonians 5:24)
Over thirty-four years ago I accepted Jesus as my Savior
and surrendered my life to Him to follow Him as my Lord. I can also say that in
all that time He has been faithful as well. In all these years I have been
through some storms of great magnitude. I have been through some hard places
and trying times. I have been through times of pain, heartache, suffering and
hurt. I have faced trials that I never dreamed I would face. I have crossed
rivers, walked through the fire, encountered roaring lions, been in the pit,
faced a sea of uncertainty, wandered in the wilderness and been to the cross.
But in every place I have encountered, He has faithfully been walking with me,
guiding me, encouraging me, strengthening me, consoling me, counseling me,
watching over me, protecting me, reassuring me, imparting faith to me, giving me
power, carrying me and loving me. He has never once failed me or let me down.
How many of us have the same "track record" that He
has?
I am sure you have the same testimony, for what He does
for one He does for all. We all face "life" but when we place our trust in
Jesus as Savior and Lord, we don't face it alone. We face it with a faithful
Lord who will never abandon or withhold His goodness from us. He certainly
hasn't withheld it from me... that is why you are reading this now. Each and
every time you read one of the Coffee Break devotionals let it be a reminder to
you that the Lord is faithful.
Have a great day. The Lord has never once stop being
faithful.
