In a book on prayer I wrote some years ago, I proposed that faith is a decision and trust is what gives it legs (mobility). Faith is a gift of God; those who receive it and act upon it are saved, justified and set apart as God’s possession. God is full of faith and is known as “a God of faithfulness” as revealed in the passage above. God’s faithfulness is like a rock, solid, sure-footing for the frail legs of man. Because He is faithful, all His work is perfect and lacking nothing because he sees to it continually. All his ways are just because He is faithful to do right every time and in every circumstance. In 2 Timothy 2:13, Paul extols the character of God, faithfulness, as a promise of God’s reliability to fulfill all His will and plans for man, especially His people: “If we are faithless, He remains faithful; for He cannot deny Himself.” Because God is faithful, the believer’s salvation is secure even though he may forfeit all rewards (see 1 Corinthians 3:15). Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life, he who believes in Me shall live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?” Think about it.
