Faithful

1 Thessalonians 5:24 KJV
Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
I see three things to address in this short text today;

Who is He that is faithful?
That answer to the question must be our God. This context gives us no other choice.

There are two things then concerning our God
He calleth you
God is in the business of calling men and women. He calls us to salvation. He calls us to greater sanctification and He calls us into areas of service.

He is faithful
This is the reassurance for the one who answers his call. We who are Christians are called. When we answer that call we realize quickly that our call cannot be performed in our own power. We learn that there are challenges to serving the Lord in this world that are overwhelming and supernatural. Tjo the one who senses the challenge and steps forward regardless, there is this promise. God is faithful. He will do what we cannot do.
