He Remains Faithful (May 12)

Today’s Scripture Readings: Psalm 68:28-35 | 1 Samuel 12:1-13:22 | John 7:1-29 | Proverbs 15:4

Today’s Scripture Focus: 1 Samuel 12-13

“For the sake of his great name the LORD will not reject his people, because the LORD was pleased to make you his own.” (1 Samuel 12:22 TNIV)

“If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself.” (2 Timothy 1:13 TNIV)

An excerpt from today’s devotional:

The children of Israel proved themselves unfaithful again and again. Yet God remained faithful to them.

—————
How often the same thing is true in our lives. We prove unfaithful. Yet for the glory of his name, he will not forsake those he has chosen and made his own. We are his holy, chosen and dearly loved ones and he will remain faithful to us for the glory of His name. Indeed we proclaim with Jeremiah, “Great is Thy Faithfulness!”
