Description

How do you respond when you find that your faith’s being tested—when you don’t know what God’s doing in your life, and your prayers seem to go unanswered? The devil harasses you, your plans are frustrated, your friends desert you, and it seems like there’s this cloud between you and God. What do you do?

In this sermon, Dr. Stanley shares five attributes of God that make it possible for Him to be faithful. He is:

• Omniscient
• Omnipotent
• Omnipresent
• Truthful
• Immutable

Because of these fives attributes, we can know that…

• We can rest in His faithfulness simply because He’s not going to change and is a faithful God.
• Whatever He calls us to do, He will empower us to do it.
• If we confess our sins, He’s faithful and just to forgive us (1 John 1:9).
• Discipline comes from the Lord.
• He answers prayer.
• He’s a God of purpose.
• We have been sealed forever as children of God.
• He has promised each of us a resurrection body.

We can also know that He’s faithful to the unbeliever. Those who reject Christ’s offer of salvation will have to face God’s wrath and judgment. Those who pretend to be Christians will eventually learn that their good works will not be enough to save them, and they will be separated from God for all eternity.

The Lord is faithful. Make sure your living each day with the peace and comfort that this truth brings.
