What does it mean to you to be Faithful? What things has the Lord done in your life that has shown you His Faithfullness? What things has He revealed to you out of His Word that makes you sure He is Faithful? How do you show Him that you are Faithful? How have you been Faithful in the Body, in the Church, in your Family? Why does He require us to be Faithful to Him and to others? What is the benefit of Living a Faithful Life? Why does He bring Home the message of Faithfullness so many times across the Scriptures?
Is it possible to be a Faithful Servant and not Love? Or are these two things the same?

I was listening to some Preaching and Teaching about Joseph a few days ago!!! Joseph has been on my mind and coming up frequently on different programs!

He is a type of Jesus, in the Scriptures!!! I keep thinking, what it is he must have felt to be thrown away by his Family and yet he never stopped looking to God and Believing in Him and no matter what was happening to him, he never failed to do the right thing. I'm not saying he was without fault or sin, we all have that, but he had something (GOD) working in his character or personality that would not let him fail the Lord in doing right! He recognized that God used what his Family intended for evil, to bring about something Good! Not only something Good, but something Wonderful!!! It was God literally using the evil that came upon him to shape him like a sculptor, to be a finished work, capable of handling the responsibility that the Lord was about to give him. He sat in Prison 13 years and yet he never lost hope! He never stopped Believing that God was his God and stood beside him no matter where he found himself.

I know a lot of people don't want to believe that Gods hand is the cause of bad things that happen to us, but in His Wisdom He moves us to Egypt or Prison or wherever He chooses to set us apart for that finishing work that will bring us to Perfection and will perform His Will in our Lives and those around us!

I am sure even though he (Joseph) kept Faith with the Lord and knew God's Faithfullness, I can't help thinking he spent many nights in slavery and seperated from the father that Loved him, and his Family, weeping for the things and people that were torn out of his Life and out of his Heart!

I try to sit in the Prison with him trying to feel what he must have felt being punished, when he knew he did right and was keeping up the Standard for God. I realize that a day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as a day to the Lord! No matter how long that answer is in coming to Prayer, it is on it's way and is "ALWAYS" on time!!! We can take comfort in the story of Joseph, because through it we see God will "NEVER" leave us or forsake us and in due time will lift up our head again and will Bless and complete us as He will for His Glory and not ours!!!

By Josephs Faithfullness, many souls were Saved through the Power that he exercised by remaining Faithful to the Lord even after his brothers sinned so terribly against him.

Sometimes the Church can treat us like that, but the Lord would have us to remain Faithful no matter how Sisters and Brothers sometimes sin against us! Sometimes it can even be spouses or mothers and fathers that do us wrong, it might even be our own children, but we have to remain steadfast no matter the outward circumstances!

REVELATION 22:6-21 (KING JAMES VERSION)

6 And he said unto me, These Sayings ARE Faithful And True: and the Lord God of The Holy Prophets sent His Angel to shew unto His servants the things which must shortly be done.

7 Behold, I Come Quickly: Blessed is he that Keepeth The Sayings of the Prophecy Of This Book.

8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.

9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the Prophets, and of them Which Keep The Sayings Of This Book: Worship God.

10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the Prophecy Of This Book: For The Time IS At Hand.

11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he That Is Righteous, let him Be Righteous Still: and he That Is Holy, let him Be Holy Still.

12 And, Behold, I Come Quickly; and My Reward Is With Me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

13 I Am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning And The End, The First And The Last.

14 Blessed Are They That DO His Commandments, that they may have Right to The Tree Of Life, And May Enter In Through The Gates Into The City.

15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

16 I Jesus have sent Mine Angel To Testify unto you these things in the churches. I Am The Root And The Offspring Of David, And The Bright And Morning Star.

17 And the Spirit and the Bride Say, Come. And let him that Heareth say, Come. And let him that is Athirst Come. And Whosoever Will, let him Take The Water Of Life Freely.

18 For I Testify unto every man that Heareth The Words of The Prophecy Of This Book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues That Are Written In This Book:

19 And if any man shall take away from The Words Of The Book Of This Prophecy, God shall take away his part out of The Book Of Life, and out of The Holy City, and From The Things Which Are Written In This Book.

20 He which Testifieth These Things saith, Surely I Come Quickly. Amen. Even So, Come, Lord Jesus.

21 The Grace Of Our Lord Jesus Christ Be With You All. Amen.

LAMENTATIONS 3 (KING JAMES VERSION)

21 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I Hope.

22 It is of the LORD's Mercies that we are not consumed, because His Compassions fail not.

23 They are new every morning: Great Is Thy Faithfulness.

24 The LORD is my Portion, saith my soul; therefore will I Hope in him.

25 The LORD is Good unto them that wait for Him, to the soul that seeketh Him.

Psalm 92 (Amplified Bible)


1 IT IS a Good and Delightful thing to give Thanks to the Lord, to Sing Praises [with musical accompaniment] to Your Name, O Most High,

2 To show forth Your Loving-Kindness in the morning and Your Faithfulness by night,

3 With an instrument of ten strings and with the lute, with a solemn sound upon the lyre.

4 For You, O Lord, have made me glad by Your Works; at the deeds of Your Hands I Joyfully sing.

5 How great are Your Doings, O Lord! Your Thoughts are very deep.

6 A man in his rude and uncultivated state knows not, neither does a [self-confident] fool understand this:

7 That though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they are doomed to be destroyed forever.

8 But You, Lord, are On High Forever.

9 For behold, Your adversaries, O Lord, for behold, Your enemies shall perish; all the evildoers shall be scattered.

10 But my horn (Emblem of Excessive Strength and Stately Grace) You have Exalted like that of a wild ox; I am Anointed with fresh oil.

11 My eye looks upon those who lie in wait for me; my ears hear the evildoers that rise up against me.

12 The [Uncompromisingly] Righteous Shall Flourish like the palm tree [Be Long-Lived, Stately, Upright, Useful, and Fruitful]; they shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon [Majestic, Stable, Durable, and Incorruptible].

13 Planted in the House of the Lord, they shall Flourish in the Courts of our God.

14 [Growing In Grace] they shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be full of sap [of Spiritual Vitality] and [Rich in the] Verdure [of Trust, Love, and Contentment].

15 [They Are Living Memorials] to show that the Lord Is Upright and Faithful to His Promises; He Is my Rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

REVELATION 19(AMPLIFIED BIBLE)


5 Then from the throne there came a voice, saying, Praise our God, all you servants of His, you who reverence Him, both small and great!

6 After that I heard what sounded like the shout of a vast throng, like the boom of many pounding waves, and like the roar of terrific and mighty peals of thunder, exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! For now the Lord our God the Omnipotent (the All-Ruler) reigns!

7 Let us rejoice and shout for joy [ exulting and triumphant]! Let us celebrate and ascribe to Him glory and honor, for the marriage of the Lamb [at last] has come, and His bride has prepared herself.

8 She has been permitted to dress in fine (radiant) linen, dazzling and white--for the fine linen is (signifies, represents) the righteousness (the upright, just, and godly living, deeds, and conduct, and right standing with God) of the saints (God's holy people).

9 Then [the angel] said to me, Write this down: Blessed (happy, to be envied) are those who are summoned (invited, called) to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he said to me [further], These are the true words (the genuine and exact declarations) of God.
