Great Is Thy Faithfulness
February 3rd, 2015
Hebrews 10:19-31
Retrospection, stepping back mentally to meditate on past events, can turn negative experiences into something positive. This is especially true when we do as the Scripture reminds us and “remember the deeds of the LORD” (Psalm 77:11). Building a kind of spiritual storage box of God’s faithfulness can help us remember what we believe when we are tested by life.
The book of Hebrews was written to Jewish converts to faith in Jesus Christ. They were particularly tempted to revert to the practices of Judaism. It was important for them to remember what God had done for and in them as they traversed a new way of living. God had been faithful in the past, and He would remain faithful.
Letting go is sometimes required before holding on. Like the trapeze artist who releases his body from one bar and reaches towards the other, our trust in the promises of Jesus Christ require letting go. Our faith in God calls us to remember His trustworthiness and then release ourselves. Only then may we receive the fullness of the One who is faithful.
