Acts 7:1-29
Where have you seen God’s fingerprints of faithfulness on your life? When you are struggling to make sense of you current circumstances, what do you recount to remember God’s ultimate faithfulness? As Stephen stood before the Sanhedrin, awaiting an uncertain fate, he recounted God’s works on behalf of the Jewish people beginning from the book of Genesis. As he spoke of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph and others, he was not trying to point out the greatness of these individuals; rather the faithfulness of God. He spoke of God’s promises to Abraham; though Abraham never saw their fulfillment, they ultimately came true. After enduring 400 years of slavery and 40 years of wandering in the wilderness, the Jewish people finally entered the Promised Land. Israel clearly doubted the goodness and truthfulness of God during this time of waiting, but God was always present with them. No matter their circumstances, God was always present and faithful.
As we face our own wilderness moments, we can look back on God’s faithfulness as recounted in Scripture and replayed in our own lives. Regardless of where you find yourself today, know that God will prove himself faithful. Even if you do not see his promises fulfilled in your lifetime, know all he has said will come true.
Father God, help me to embrace your faithfulness. Help me to trust you even when my circumstances are confusing, knowing that you will never leave me and will always do as you have said. Amen.
What causes you to doubt God’s faithfulness? How can you remind yourself of his character amid confusing circumstances?
