The Overwhelming Faithfulness of God | Lord's Day Sermon | 28th September, 2025 | Pastor Adeola Ogundele
Description
God’s faithfulness is not fragile like a spider’s web but strong and unbreakable, like steel chains anchoring a mighty ship. His commitment to save us is steady, stretching through time into eternity, and His mercies are new every morning.
In Genesis 20, we see this faithfulness shine even through Abraham’s failure. By giving Sarah to Abimelech, Abraham, though unintended, seemed to threaten God’s redemptive plan, yet God intervened. Salvation is about His glory, and He will not allow His purposes to fail because of our faithlessness. This passage reminds us that supernatural experiences are not proof of belonging to God. Abimelech, a heathen king, received a vision, yet true salvation rests in God’s covenant love. In His faithfulness, He restrains sin, rescues His children, and defends us against every accusation.
Our relationship with God is not based on our morality but on His electing love and unchanging generosity. He takes personal responsibility for His people, our Redeemer, Advocate, and Defender. In Christ, we see His overwhelming faithfulness, a love that covers us despite our flaws.
Reflection: Like Abimelech, we are called to come humbly before Jesus, who prays and intercedes for us.
