But The Lord Is Faithful

We live in a day of great unfaithfulness. A man's word is no longer his bond, a handshake no longer seals the deal, churches abandon the articles of faith they were founded on, and "till death do us part" has become a vain repetition. Even among practicing Christians, nearly a third of those who attended church before COVID have never returned. Proverbs 20:6 asks, "a faithful man who can find?" But there is One who is faithful and can never be anything else.

Key Verse: "But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil." - 2 Thessalonians 3:3 (KJV)

In this Wednesday night message from 2 Thessalonians 3:1-5, Pastor Marc Williamson shows four ways the Lord proves His faithfulness to His people. He is faithful in prospering His Word, sending it forth swiftly and glorifying it through the conversion of sinners and the continued development of the saints. He is faithful in protecting His people from unreasonable and wicked men and from the evil one, grounding believers in His truth and guarding them as a shepherd guards his flock. He is faithful in progressing the believer's walk, and in producing the qualities that evidence real faith: a growing love for God and others, and patient endurance as we wait for Christ.

When you look back and see His Word at work in you, His hand protecting you, and His Spirit making you more like Christ, you can say with Paul, "But the Lord is faithful."
