(for America and its faithful Creator)

“Faithful Creator”      

   

   “Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to Him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator” (I Peter 4:19).

   Throughout its pages, and in the Apostle Peter’s specific declaration, the Bible proclaims “a faithful Creator.”  Indeed, the One who made the human race did not abandon us to our deserved fate when we fell into sin at the outset of our existence.  God rather purposed the Lord Jesus Christ as “the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world” to make possible our redemption from the darkness of alienation from Him (Revelation 13:8).  Our faithful Creator would die as our faithful Redeemer, or as one once said, “To create, God had to speak.  To redeem, He had to bleed.”

   Ae we increasingly discover the wondrous vastness and complexity of the universe, the power of our Creator increasingly astonishes our minds.  Couple this with His infinite faithfulness, and we find a Maker and Redeemer who thrills and inspires our hearts.  Our all powerful Creator can.  Our faithful Creator will.  All that awaits are creatures who realize our need not only for God’s fiat that provided our existence.  “It is He that hath made us” (Psalm 100:3).  We must also have His living presence and working that provides our very life.  “He is thy life” (Deuteronomy 30:20).  This born again believers in the Lord Jesus Christ have, providing for the needs of every moment of our existence.  

    “A faithful Creator.”  The title says so much about our Lord’s character and capability.  We can safely and with complete confidence commit our souls to such a wondrous One in all things, at all times, and in this very moment.  May a corollary title be found appropriate of us - faithful creatures.  Moreover, through the Lord Jesus and by the power of the Holy Spirit,  faithful sons and daughters.  To whatever degree our commitment to such grace and privileged responsibility may be, let us seek to “increase more and more” (I Thessonians 4:10).  What other response can we offer to our glorious God, our blessed Redeemer, our perfect Lord, and yes, our faithful Creator.

"And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True.

(Revelation 19:11)

Weekly Memory Verse

      My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of His correction.  For whom the Lord loveth He correcteth; even as a father the son in whom He delighteth. 

(Proverbs 3:11-12)
