Romans 3
Lynell McCrary
Not a day goes by that I am not reminded of God’s faithfulness. It seems like it’s all around us, but we must recognize it. Over and over again, I am reminded of Pastor Farrell’s teaching on May 2-3, which included this topic.
It is easy to see the circumstances that are difficult or that we would like to escape. In those times, we may turn to God for help, while at the same time feeling guilty that we didn’t turn to Him when things were better than our current circumstances.
Does our unfaithfulness nullify God’s faithfulness? Romans 3:4 says, “Not at all! Let God be true and every man a liar. As it is written: ‘So that you may be proved right when you speak and prevail when you judge’.” There isn’t even the slightest chance that we could avoid or change God’s faithfulness. His character and His Word remain steadfast. He is always faithful.
Do not try to amputate your past and present from your future. God is faithful and wants you to see that. I would challenge you to consider: what have you already noticed today that proves God’s faithfulness in your life?
