God’s Faithfulness in the Bible through Stories
Individual verses are great at conveying how faithful God is, but you may also want to check out these stories to see how God was uniquely trustworthy in these real people’s lives.
Abraham and Sarah in Genesis 17 and 21
God promised Abraham and Sarah a son, but as month after month passed–Abraham and Sarah took matters into their own hands and still God upheld his promise to them. He would give them a biological son. It seemed impossible because now they were both so old. But God’s promise proved true and the son of promise, Isaac was born.
Job in the book of Job
Job is the story of one man’s tragic loss of riches, family, and health. Job is faithful to God–never disowning his faith, even as he questions his loss and hardship. In return God is faithful to Job–restoring his view of God, his relationships, and his blessings.
The Parable of the Lost Son in Luke 15
Like the Father in the story who waited on his lost, unfaithful son to return home, God is faithfully waiting for us when we turn from our wasteful living and come home. The son’s dishonor never changed the way the father felt about him–he was overcome with love and joy at his return and was faithful to restore him to his place of sonship.
I hope each of these verses and stories reminded you that God is faithful. Faithfulness is God’s sure steadiness, and despite the hardships of life, despite our sins and failures–He will always be true.
