This is an unfaithful world, and it is getting worse by the moment; but God is still faithful. Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations (Deuteronomy 7:9). Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds (Psalm 36:5).

It is easy to focus on the trouble and chaos of this world that surround you every day; but the Bible says, The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms (Deuteronomy 33:27).

When you are born again, you become a son or a daughter of God; and He is faithful to His children. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons [or daughters] of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12). When you are in the family of God, you inherit its many and mighty benefits; and you must always remember what is yours. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits (Psalm 103:2).

The world is heading for the Tribulation Period that is soon to come, and the spirit of the Antichrist is already all around. Judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter (Isaiah 59:14). Thankfully, no matter how people and the world change, God does not change. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). For I am the LORD, I change not (Malachi 3:6).

God has not left us alone in this world. He has given us a Comforter, the Holy Ghost, to live inside of us. He is the third person in the Trinity of the Godhead, and the Lord let us know He is a real person when He referred to Him using personal pronouns. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you (John 14:16,17).

The Holy Ghost helps us get our prayers through to God by making intercession for us. Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God (Romans 8:26,27). Jesus also makes intercession for us. It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us (Romans 8:34).

The World We Live In

This world is becoming a fearful place for those who don’t have God. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers [different] places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake (Matthew 24:6-9). Today, we hear of Christians being killed in various nations around the world.

And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another (Matthew 24:10). The true children of God in this Jesus ministry are so different, and there are people who hate us for being different. Even so-called Christians from other churches try to run us down because they know we have many signs, wonders and miracles; and they have none. But people hated Jesus when He was here, so I don’t worry about it. Newspapers and TV commentators can write and say whatever they want to because I know God will just use those things to draw more people to the truth.

The Bible truth will open some people’s eyes, but others will remain spiritually blind and deaf because they want to be. When Jesus was here, He said, For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them (Matthew 13:15).

Jesus warned of false prophets and deceivers, and there are many of them today. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many (Matthew 24:11). There are plenty of dead churches with a deceiver in the pulpit, and the people are sitting in spiritual darkness.

The Earth is full of sin wherever you go. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold (Matthew 24:12). It is sad when people let their love for God and others wax cold because that means they don’t feel the warmth, strength and divinity of God’s love; and they don’t have the faith of His love. That is why you are not to be a part of this unfaithful world but just a pilgrim passing through. Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul (I Peter 2:11).

God is faithful and full of love, and you are to be like Him. The Bible says, And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world (I John 4:16,17).

When you are full of God’s love, He will keep you from the evil of this world. But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil (II Thessalonians 3:3). Live in divine love; and then you will say, do and think the right things.

God’s Promises Are True

The Bible is full of God’s promises; and because He is faithful, you can hold fast to each one of them. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) (Hebrews 10:23). When you let your faith waver, it is no longer divine faith. You have allowed doubt and disobedience to contaminate it, and divine faith has no impurities.

Blessed be the LORD, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant (I Kings 8:56). Moses believed that God was faithful to do all He had promised, and he served the people those promises.

God said, So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void [empty], but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it (Isaiah 55:11). God’s Word is stronger than all the powers of this Earth put together. For I am the LORD: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass (Ezekiel 12:25).

Some people will do whatever they can to show that God is unfaithful, but that doesn’t mean He is; it just means that they won’t receive of His faithfulness. Paul said, If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself (II Timothy 2:13). He also said, For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar (Romans 3:3,4). That doesn’t mean that every person on Earth is a liar, but those who talk against God are.

God is indeed faithful, but you must believe He is if you want Him to move for you. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning (James 1:17).

Abraham Believed

Abraham was strong in faith because he was fully persuaded of God’s faithfulness. He [Abraham] staggered not at the promise of God [of a son] through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness (Romans 4:20-22). Because God is still faithful today, we can be strong in His faith every day we have left on Earth.

God promised Abraham that He would raise up seed through his son Isaac, and the promise was carried out. God’s oath caused all doubt in Abraham’s mind to flee; and he never wavered, not even when God asked him to sacrifice Isaac on Mount Moriah. By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure (Hebrews 11:17-19).

Abraham never looked around to see if anyone else believed what God had told him or if anyone else was going to be faithful to the Lord. He just knew that he accounted God to be faithful, and He was.

When God made His great promise to Abraham, there was no greater power than Himself and no one more faithful than Himself; so He swore by Himself. For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. And so, after he [Abraham] had patiently endured [waited], he obtained the promise (Hebrews 6:13-15).

Abraham’s wife, Sarah, also judged God to be faithful; and He gave her a son when, in the eyes of the world, she was too old to have a baby. Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised (Hebrews 11:11). That promise was not fulfilled until 25 years after it was given, but God was still faithful to what He had said.

God’s Eternal Call

Our faithful God has called us to the fellowship of His Son. God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord (I Corinthians 1:9). It is the same fellowship God had with His Son for thousands of years before Jesus laid aside His robe and crown to come to Earth and redeem us. If you trust God like Jesus did, you can have that fellowship.

Jesus said, My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand (John 10:27,28). Many people have misinterpreted those scriptures and claim that no one can backslide, but that is ridiculous! Anything you receive through repentance and obedience, you can lose through rebellion and disobedience.

The real meaning of those scriptures is that no person can cause you to backslide. People will try to blame others for making them fail God; but when a person fails, it is always their own fault.

It is not God’s fault when a person backslides either. The Bible says, Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it (I Thessalonians 5:24). The Lord has called you to go to Calvary, to work for Him and to go to Heaven. Just as God was faithful to Abraham and Sarah, He will be faithful to you if you will judge Him to be so.

But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. To him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen [So be it.] (I Peter 5:10,11). There is no one in Heaven or on Earth who is above the God who has called us to His eternal glory, and you must treat that calling with divinity all the time. Then all of God’s promises will be yours. For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us (II Corinthians 1:20).

This wicked world is so unfaithful, but that doesn’t change the fact that God is still faithful; and He will never change. He will always be faithful to His Word which says, The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God (Psalm 9:17). All people will be judged according to the Word of God, and they will end up in either Heaven or hell. The Word says so, and that Word is true forever. Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away (Mark 13:31).

Is God Faithful to You?

Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability [endurance, steadfastness] of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast (Hebrews 6:17-19). These scriptures again tell of God’s great faithfulness; but you must judge Him to be the faithful God He is, or you will come up short.

Do you judge God faithful enough to take care of that hardest thing in your life, or do you let your surroundings and circumstances cause you to waver? The Bible says, But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed (James 1:6). When you are wavering, that means you have nothing to hold you steady. Love and faith lifted you out of sin and darkness; and if you will use them, they will keep you out of sin and hold you steady.

We all need God’s faithfulness, mercy and unfailing compassion; and without them, we are nothing. It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness (Lamentations 3:22,23). You must judge God to be faithful for the rest of the journey no matter how unfaithful the world is to you.

Think on God’s faithful promises and live by them. When God makes you a promise, you can claim it; and things will work out for your good. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose (Romans 8:28). That verse is talking about those who have accepted God’s calling and are doing what He wants them to do. Notice also that it refers to those who are called according to God’s purpose and not their own purpose, and God’s purpose is to get this Gospel to the world before Jesus returns.

God is sending His children forth just like He sent Moses. And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you (Exodus 3:14).

Follow God’s Plan

Because God is faithful, He has a perfect plan for everyone who is born outside of Eden. Some choose to follow that plan while others make their own plan and lose out at the end of life’s journey. They don’t want to live holy or seek God’s will, and they feel they have the right to do what they want to; but they will be the losers.

The Bible says, Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God (I Corinthians 7:24). God calls each and every one to walk His way, and He wants us to abide in that calling. Jesus said, Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your [good] fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you (John 15:16). You are chosen of God, and He is faithful to anoint you to do what He wants you to do.

It is the plan of God for everyone to be a soul winner. He calls some to preach, some to teach and others to testify and be a living epistle for Him. Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart (II Corinthians 3:3).

It is also God’s plan for everyone to live holy. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God (Romans 12:1,2). You have to follow God’s plan for your life in order to prove what His good, acceptable and perfect will is. When you go His way all the time, you will bless people, bring souls into the Kingdom and do a wonderful work for Him.

God’s plan for each one of us is perfect, and there is no reason for you to let the devil get in to mess up any part of it. When the devil and his demons come around, spray them with the divine blood; and they will run from it because it burns them just as fire burns our skin. God gives you the power to do that when you walk in His will. Jesus said, Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you (Luke 10:19). Use the truth in all faith, and it will work every time.

The Lord Does Not Change

This world and the people in it are constantly changing and will never be faithful, but God never changes. People will say one thing and do another; they will make a promise and then break it. They let their circumstances and desires change them and take them out of the will of God. That is why it is hard for many to even imagine that the Lord never changes; but the Bible tells us, Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ (II Corinthians 10:5).

Good imaginations and thoughts can help you, but you must get rid of any that are against the knowledge of God. The devil will try to give you his thoughts, but you must never listen to him. Some of you get into big trouble by letting the devil talk to you, and you don’t realize how much you are defeating yourself.

You can never allow trying situations or unpleasant circumstances to change you or how you view God because those things don’t change God. You must allow Him to change the way you view your circumstances and then let Him lead you through them. You may be going through a tough trial, but you must never listen to the devil when he tells you that God is not faithful.

Consider God’s exceeding great power, love and wisdom; and rejoice in the fact that He never changes. You can always have a sure and steadfast foundation in Him. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord (I Corinthians 15:58). God takes note of everything you do for Him. Not one thing you do for the Lord is done in vain. When you were saved, you acquired real estate in Heaven; and it will be there when you arrive.

Our heavenly home is part of God’s lovingkindness to us, and His love for us never ends. The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee (Jeremiah 31:3).

God Is All You Need

Never compare God to man because He is not a man. God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good (Numbers 23:19)?

There are plenty of liars in the world, and one of the traits of a liar is that he is always changing up on you; but God does not change, so it is impossible for Him to lie. He makes good on all of His promises as long as you trust Him and meet the conditions of them. There is a promise for everything you need, but each one has a condition.

The Lord’s faithfulness is eternal. The counsel of the LORD standeth forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations (Psalm 33:11). The God who created Heaven and Earth saves us and holds our hands to show us the way. He leadeth me beside the still waters (Psalm 23:2).

God is our Father, and that is something to treasure. I’m sure you have seen a little boy clinging to his daddy’s hand. Well, that is the way you should be with the Lord. He wants to hold your hand, show you the way and love you with an everlasting love. God said, I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles (Isaiah 42:6).

When you keep your hand in the Lord’s hand, He will guide you; and you won’t have to worry or be afraid because He will deliver you from any bondage. To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house [into the light]. I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images [false religions] (Isaiah 42:7,8).

I never take one speck of the Lord’s glory in any of my services. I let the people know that the miracles are from God, and I have them praise the Lord for the miracles as they take place. God wants to be your Father and your one and only. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour (Isaiah 43:11).

Never Change Course

Paul tells us, There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it (I Corinthians 10:13). I have been in some awful situations where I thought I just couldn’t take any more; but when I looked around and saw no way out, I would decide, “Lord, I can take some more.” God will always be faithful to deliver you in His time, so don’t let the devil wreck your nervous system. Just settle down and let God move.

When you are faced with uncertainties in this life, always remember that God is faithful; and His Word does not change. But the word of the Lord endureth forever (I Peter 1:25). Give yourself completely to God and to His Word just as the disciples did, and you will be a winner. But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word (Acts 6:4).

God has called you on a specific path, and His plan for you won’t change. Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ [Rapture Day] (Philippians 1:6). Only through your own free will can you change the direction God wants you to go; no devil or human can change it. God gave you talents to use for Him, and He expects you to use them until He comes or calls.

God did not change His calling on Demas’ life; Demas changed it when he decided to follow the world’s way. Paul sadly said, For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica (II Timothy 4:10). Demas had traveled with the great apostle Paul, and he had it made; but he listened to his flesh crying out, “Leave Paul, and things won’t be so hard. You will be all right.”

Live in God’s Grace

Excuses will cause you to detour from the path God has for you. Before you were saved, you walked according to the course of this world; but when you were quickened into the newness of life that Christ brought, you were never to change course again. Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) (Ephesians 2:2,5). You must always remain sure and steadfast in the ways of the Lord.

Grace is all the favor of God, and He will never favor sin. That is why He sent His Son to make it possible for us to live free from sin. The Lord will never let anybody through Heaven’s gate with any sin in them. Christ came saying, I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture (John 10:9). He also said, All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers (John 10:8).

Through God’s amazing grace, we can have it all. That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:7-10). God has ordained for us to walk in the steps of Jesus, so that means we can do it.

Serve a Faithful Savior

Sinner, it is time to come to Jesus. Many souls are already in hell because they thought they had plenty of time when they didn’t. I can’t think of anything worse than putting off getting saved until it is too late. It is time for you to wake up and get ready to go up to Heaven.

Say this prayer right now: Oh, God, I am lost and on my road to hell. I have shamed my God and His Son, and I am so sorry. You said if I would repent with godly sorrow, you would forgive me and save my soul; and I believe that. I am as sorry as God is that I committed my sins, but I have come home; and I do believe the blood of Jesus washes them all away. Come into my heart, Jesus! Come on in, Jesus! If you meant that prayer, you are free; and you can say, “Hallelujah! I am free!”

Faith in God Heals

If you need a miracle for your body today, remember that nothing is too hard for God. Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me (Jeremiah 32:27)?

Jesus went to the whipping post and paid the price for our physical healing. He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5). Jesus is the Healer; and He said, They shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover (Mark 16:18). I am not the healer; I am just His believer.

Lord, I bring the people into your holy presence. Millions have been delivered through this Jesus ministry, and you will set many more people free—those with AIDS, cancer, diabetes, heart trouble, lung diseases and those with afflictions that the doctors cannot cure with medicine. Heal the people today! Heal! in the name of Jesus. Feel His healing power as it flows to you.

Receive the Holy Ghost

Salvation is not enough in this final hour. You must have the baptism in the Holy Ghost if you want to go with Jesus when He comes. The Lord said He would give the Holy Ghost to those who believe in and obey Him. And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him (Acts 5:32). But you have to want Him.

The Bible tells us that on the Day of Pentecost, the disciples were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance (Acts 2:4). Some people claim to have the Holy Ghost; but when I ask them if the Holy Ghost has spoken through them in another language, they say no. When a person receives the Holy Ghost, He will speak. That is the initial evidence. Then He will make you a witness for Him. Jesus said, But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth (Acts 1:8).

We don’t believe in speaking in tongues at will because that is not the real Holy Ghost. If you can speak any time you want to, it is of self and not of God. If you continue to do that, the Lord told me a devil would eventually take over.

You can start seeking by saying, “Glory, glory, glory.” That is one of the greatest ways to receive because when you say “glory” and mean it from the depths of your soul, you are glorifying God with your whole heart. Then the Holy Ghost will come in. Now is the time for you to move on in and receive.

Write or email and tell me what the faithful God has done for you, and I will rejoice with you. God bless you today, and don’t ever forget that God never changes. His love for you is eternal.
