People come and go, and each season turns into the next; continual change is normal in our life. Thankfully, this is not the case with God, who is “the same yesterday and today, and forever” (Heb. 13:8). We can completely depend on the Lord’s steadfastness because He is:
•Omniscient. Our Father knows what is happening for every person at every moment (Prov. 15:3). His knowledge is complete—no circumstance is hidden from Him; there is no motive or thought process that He does not discern.
•Omnipotent. God has power over all things; nothing is outside His control. No authority in heaven or on earth can thwart His purposes (Job 42:2).
• Omnipresent. There’s no person, place, or thing in all of creation that’s outside of the Lord’s presence (Ps. 139:7-12). All space and time are within His sight.
In addition to these excellent traits, God always speaks the truth (Titus 1:2). We can fully trust the reliability of His Word and His responses to our prayers.
Because God’s character is not affected by time, place, people, or circumstances, He is more trustworthy than even the closest human friend. When our plans have failed and people have disappointed us, He is always there, steady as a rock. For all our days, God is the One we can count on.
And that’s the memo.
