BE FAITHFUL TO GOD
Bible in a Year: 1 Kings 22:1-53; Acts 19:14-41; Proverbs 15:31-33,
Proverbs 16:1-7
“Unfailing love and faithfulness make atonement of sin. By fearing the Lord, people avoid evil.”
Proverbs 16:6 NLT
I was a young mother back when I lived in Thailand. My husband had to leave us and go into the city to work so that we had shelter and food. One night, after putting my children to sleep, I went to bed. I wasn’t feeling well. Out of the blue, a man came into my bedroom and asked me if I wanted to sleep with him. I was frightened. I quickly ran out of my room to escape from this man with the ill intent to force himself on me. I ran to my Thai friend. He chased this man and threw wood branches at him. The man took off and disappeared.
I felt hurt and cried. I thought, why would another Karen man hurt someone from his own race, who had gone through so much hardship and was still struggling? My heart broke and I could not sleep. King Ahab was a bad king whom God twice defended him from Benhadad, king of Syria, but he chose to be unfaithful to God. Paul, on the other hand, after encountering Jesus, was faithful to the point, where Ephesians who worship Artemis wanted to harm him.
While the evil plot by the man who entered my bedroom was not my fault, that perilous time reminded me to examine my heart. When I was a young mother, I was not a Christian who prayed to God and studied His word faithfully. I lived my life flippantly and did not respect God. That is why my life experiences were full of pain and afflictions. Now that I am older and more mature, I see my weaknesses and change my ways to live a life more faithful to God. Today, evil, and enemies still surround me, but I find peace because I am desiring and trying harder to be faithful to God. My sin has been atoned for and I believe God will protect me from evil just as he prevented that man’s evil plan to harm me.
Reflection
Are you facing an evil plot against you? Fight evil with faithfulness to God. In what ways can you become more faithful to God?
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank you for letting me live so I may know you, obey you, trust you, fear you, and love you. Please help me put you first in my life and remain faithful to you forever and ever. In Jesus’ Name, we pray, Amen.
