Great Is His Faithfulness

Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. "The Lord is my portion," says my soul, "therefore I hope in Him!" The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him. It is good that one should hope and wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.
Lamentations 3:22-26 NKJV

Great Is His Faithfulness
Jeremiah wrote this when Judah was in a period of decline, culminating in the destruction of the temple and seventy years of captivity in Babylon. The people had turned away from the Lord. Six of their last seven kings did what was evil in His eyes. Only Josiah followed the Lord and sought to turn the nation back to Him. But his life ended prematurely when he disobeyed the word of the Lord and mixed himself into the political affairs of the world around him. The Lord's chastening hand was upon His people.

We see this "weeping prophet's" heart in the two books he wrote. But what is more, we see the Lord's heart. He does not change, even when He must chasten His people. Judgment is His strange work—strange, but needful at times. His sunshine and rain fall on just and unjust alike. So too, the believer suffers along with the unbeliever when God deals in judgment with a nation. But the one who seeks Him and hopes in Him finds that the Lord is good to those who wait for Him, for great is His faithfulness.

Thank God, we can enjoy the Lord's faithful goodness, even when His chastening hand is on the world. When we hear of His people suffering and in distress, let us pray for them, while thanking God for His many mercies that He, in His great faithfulness, grants us to experience daily.

-- Eugene P. Vedder, Jr.

We comprehend Him not, yet earth and heaven tell
God sits as sovereign on the throne, and ruleth all things well.

-- P. Gerhardt

by Pastor E.A Adeboye

CONDESCEND!

After seeing their plight, hearing their cries and feeling their pains, God came down to rescue the Israelites from Egypt. Our God is a mobile God. He comes down to deliver His own. As high as God is and even though He has His throne in Heaven, yet He condescends to meet the needs of His children on earth (Isaiah...More

DIVINE CHAMPION 2

Yesterday we discovered that our Lord Jesus Christ is the number one champion and that He makes His people champions. We also saw that a divine champion is a person raised up and supported by God.

One attribute of a champion is strength. The divine champion is one who receives divine strengthening....More
EX-CHAMPION?
Open Heavens
for Sunday, January 25, 2015
by Pastor E.A Adeboye

EX-CHAMPION?

Although it is an unpleasant experience to be a defeated contender, becoming an ex-champion is a much more grievous experience. When you are not yet a champion, only a few people pay attention to you. But by the time you become a champion, you will be on the radar of many people, including your enemies. A champion has...More
