Saturday, 15th August, 2026 TITLE: "HOLD FAST: GOD IS FAITHFUL TO HIS PROMISES" ANCHOR SCRIPTURE(S) Numbers 23:19 (KJV) "God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? Hebrews 10:23 (KJV) "Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)" QUOTE TO REFLECT ON "God's promises are dependable because His character never changes." DAY'S REFLECTION Human beings can make promises and later change their minds, forget their commitments, or become unable to fulfil what they said. God, however, is completely different. Numbers 23:19 declares that "God is not a man, that he should lie." His character is perfectly truthful, and His Word can always be trusted. The word "faithful" describes someone who is dependable, trustworthy, and consistent. When God speaks, His Word carries the certainty of His character. He does not make empty promises. If He has said it, He has the power and integrity to bring it to pass according to His will and timing. The second part of the message comes from Hebrews 10:23: "Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering." To hold fast means to cling firmly and refuse to let go. Wavering means becoming uncertain, unstable, or doubtful. Faith does not mean that we never experience questions or difficult emotions; it means that we refuse to abandon our confidence in God when circumstances become difficult. Life can test our faith. Sometimes we pray for an answer and nothing seems to change. Sometimes circumstances appear to contradict what God has promised. At such moments, our feelings may say, "Give up," but God's Word says, "Hold fast." Notice why we can hold fast: "for he is faithful that promised." Our confidence is not based on how strong we feel today. It is based on how faithful God is. Even when our strength is weak, His character remains unchanged. Therefore, do not measure God's faithfulness by today's circumstances. Continue trusting Him. Keep praying. Keep obeying His Word. Keep your confession of faith strong. The God who made the promise is faithful, and He knows exactly when and how to fulfil His purposes. Hold fast. Do not waver. God has not changed. MEDITATION SCRIPTURE(S) Isaiah 55:11 (KJV) "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." 2 Corinthians 1:20 (KJV) "For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us." LIFE LESSONS (IMPLICATIONS) 1. God cannot lie; His Word is completely trustworthy. 2. God's faithfulness is greater than our changing circumstances. 3. Faith requires us to hold firmly to God's promises. 4. Delays do not mean God has forgotten His Word. 5. Our confidence should rest in God's character rather than our feelings. EVERYDAY ACTION Hold firmly to God's Word today; refuse doubt and let His faithfulness guide your decisions. PRAYER Faithful Father, strengthen my faith and help me hold firmly to Your promises without wavering. Give me patience to trust Your timing and confidence in Your unfailing Word. In Jesus' name, Amen. DECLARATION God is faithful, and His Word cannot fail. I will not waver or give up. I hold firmly to my faith, trusting that every promise God has ordained for my life will be fulfilled according to His perfect will. Amen. Devotion by Rev.
