Psalms 12:1-4
“REMAINING FAITHFUL IN A FAITHLESS ERA”
Psalm 12:1-4
“Lord help! Godly men are fast disappearing. The faithful have vanished from the earth.” Psalm 12:1 (NLT)
“Everyone talks about how loyal and faithful they are, but just try to find someone who really is.” Proverbs 20:6 (GN)
WHY DEVELOP FAITHFULNESS
The God we serve is faithful
“God is faithful, through whom you were called into fellowship with His Son…”
1 Corinthians 1:9
It is a qualification for ministry
“I thank Christ Jesus our Lord……because He considered me faithful, putting me into service….” I Timothy 1:12
It guarantees God’s blessings on my life
“A faithful man will abound with blessings” Proverbs 28:20
It prepares me for leadership roles
“Who then is the faithful and sensible slave whom his master put in charge of his household….?” Matthew 24:45
Faithfulness will be rewarded
Matthew 25:21
