Isaiah 46:3-4 (ESV Strong's)
“Listen to me, O house of Jacob,
all the remnant of the house of Israel,
who have been borne by me from before your birth,
carried from the womb;
even to your old age I am he,
and to gray hairs I will carry you.
I have made, and I will bear;
I will carry and will save.
Subject: God's Faithfulness
The truth contained in this passage is refreshment. When we live in a world that is so haphazard and so inconsistent, it is peaceful and assuring to know that our God is a God of Faithfulness, even to the end. God does not forget us when we are old. His faithfulness does not run out because He gets bored with us. We don't get a new version of God every year; the God 2.0 approach. What God is saying to the House of Jacob, above, we can rest upon today. God made us; will bear us; will carry us; and will save us. What God began He will finish:
Philippians 1:6 (ESV Strong's)
And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.
God promises to save us to the end. God is faithful to His promise and the above verses put that into context for us. As we mature chronologically, we can rejoice that while others might not see us as significant as they used to, God does. We are still the center of His attention and He will make sure we are cared for until the end.
