“ God is Faithful”
Reference: Psalms Chapter 105
God was faithful to Abraham.
God was faithful to Israel.
God is faithful to Christ,
God is faithful to every believer in Christ.
Genesis 15:13-14 “And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; [14] And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.”
The Psalmist recounts every step of this promise in thankfulness.
Let’s read:
Psalm 105:1-8 “O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people. [2] Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works. [3] Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. [4] Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore. [5] Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; [6] O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen. [7] He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth. [8] He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.”
The Lord keeps His Covenant. His Word cannot fail. He fulfilled His Covenant with Abraham and his biological seed.
He is fulfilling His Covenant with the spiritual seed of Abraham in Christ.
He brought the biological seed of Abraham (Israel) to the Promised Land. He has brought the spiritual seed of Abraham the Promised Spirit (the Holy Spirit).
We continue our reading:
Psalm 105:9-15 “Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac; [10] And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant: [11] Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance: [12] When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it. [13] When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people; [14] He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes; [15] Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.”
His warnings are the same today as it was then. Touch not His anointed, and do His prophets no harm. He is the same God yesterday, today, and forever.
We continue our reading:
Psalm 105:16-17 “Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread. [17] He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:”
He sent Joseph before them to prepare a place for Israel.
Today, He has sent Jesus Christ before us to prepare a place for the Church.
John 14:2-3 “In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. [3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”
He is the same promise keeping God.
We continue our reading:
Psalm 105:18 “Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:”
Like Christ on the Cross, Joseph’s feet were bruised. A butler to his left, and a baker to his right. One was saved and the other was killed.
Jesus Christ on the middle cross had two thieves next to Him. One to His right hand and the other to His left hand. One thieve repented and was saved,, the other died in unbelief.
He is the same God revealing Himself in His promises.
We continue our reading:
Psalm 105:19-41 “Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him. [20] The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free. [21] He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance: [22] To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom. [23] Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham. [24] And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies. [25] He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants. [26] He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen. [27] They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham. [28] He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word. [29] He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish. [30] Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings. [31] He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts. [32] He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land. [33] He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts. [34] He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that without number, [35] And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground. [36] He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength. [37] He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes. [38] Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them. [39] He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night. [40] The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven. [41] He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.”
The Same Rock was stricken on Calvary’s cross to quench the thirst of the world.
John 7:37-39 “In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. [38] He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. [39] (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified).”
The Holy Spirit Who was received on the Day of Pentecost is the thirst quencher for the Believer.
We conclude our reading:
Psalm 105:42-45 “For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant. [43] And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness: [44] And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people; [45] That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the LORD.”
For He remembers His Holy Promise to Abraham and his seed.
Receive the Holy Promise of His Spirit. BELIEVE and confess Christ the Seed of Abraham as we’ve revealed Him from the First Adam. He is a promise keeper, in Christ!
