“Great is Your Faithfulness.”(1)

Lamentations

Session 6

Zondervan Illustrated Bible Dictionary – Used of God, faithfulness has a two-fold emphasis, referring first to His absolute reliability, firm constancy, and complete freedom from arbitrariness or fickleness, and also to His steadfast love and loyalty toward His people.

Prayer

Father, coming before You in the Name of Jesus. This morning and hopefully every morning, I will exclaim, “Great is Your Faithfulness.”

The Psalmist wrote, “Great is Your Faithfulness,” Jeremiah penned, “Great is Your Faithfulness,” we shout, “Great is Your Faithfulness,” and I exclaim, “Great is Your Faithfulness.”

Father, You have brought us through the years of past. You have kept us through and from floods and high waters. You have brought us through sickness and even when loved ones have been loss, You have remained faithful. At times, when we did not know how or if we were going to make it, You have walked us through the making it.

Some have lost their livelihood; but through Your faithfulness You have birthed new businesses. Through the reality of Your love, You have been with us through every trial, havoc, and feeling of hopelessness. Father God, we can always depend on You because written in Your Word, “You will never leave us nor forsake us.”(2)

At times when we do not acknowledge Your presence in our lives, You remained faithful giving us comfort. Even when we do not talk with You or read Your Word, You have remained faithful.

When awakened out of slumber and sleep, You are with us. While traveling through our daily lives with our never-ending chores, You are with us. “Great is Your Faithfulness.”

When we try to replace You with temporary earthly matters, You remain faithful showing us that there is none like You and that there is none greater.

Yes, there is none greater, no love can surpass Your love. “Your lovingkindness is better than life.”(3)

Thank You Lord, for loving and taking care of us. May we all come to the place in our hearts that You are God and God alone.

Lord Jesus, You have made all this possible.

“Great is Your Faithfulness.”

In Jesus’ Name.

Amen
