Today's thought will come from Hebrews 3:2-6. Speaking of Jesus in these five verses, the author writes, "He was faithful to Him who appointed Him , as Moses also was in all His house. For He has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by just so much as the builder of the house has more honor than the house. For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God. Now Moses was faithful in His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken later; but Christ was faithful as a Son over His house whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope firm until the end".
In important ways, this passage of scripture was of great significance to the Hebrew believer. Moses was faithful and Moses was granted glory. But Christ is "counted worthy of more glory than Moses"! My thoughts today are of His faithfulness. Jesus has proven Himself faithful to His Father and faithful to those whom the Father has given Him. It is proclaimed time and time again that God is faithful. We would despair if it were not for the faithfulness of our Lord Jesus. We may struggle in our desire to be counted amongst the faithful brethren, but His names include Faithful and True. Peter speaks of entrusting our souls to our faithful Creator and Paul proclaimed to Timothy that "If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself". Praise the Lord for His faithfulness!
