Study On Faithfulness

It is hard to separate Faith from Faithfulness.  Scholars say ,”The degree of faith we have is the amount of the fruit of faithfulness we display.”  I suppose that means that our show of faithfulness indicates how much faith we have.  God has faith in us.  His love does not stop because of a limitation in our faithfulness.  God’s mercies are new every morning. So pick yourself up every morning; re-believe every morning!

There is very little on what it means to be faithful in the Bible. God is faithful. We learn what faithfulness is by looking to Him.

Know therefore that the Lord your God … is the faithful God, keeping His covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love Him and keep His commands (Deuteronomy 7:9).
