God’s Word Will Stand

A beautiful song by Greg Day I found today. Indeed it is true that the author of Psalm 40 writes:

The grass withers, the flower fades
when the breath of the Lord blows on it;
surely the people are grass.
The grass withers, the flower fades,
but the word of our God will stand forever.
~Isaiah 40:7-8

God’s Word Will Stand by Greg Day

All down through the ages, many people have tried

To stop the power of God’s Word

They tried to control it, even ignore it

Anything so it could not be heard

But the Word has survived, yes it’s very alive

And it still has the upper hand

You see before we came along

And after we are all gone

God’s Word will stand

Chorus: 

Oh I’ve taken my stand with the book in my hand

And it’s stood the test of time

It’s weathered the storm while scoffers roar threatenings of every kind

Eternal survival, that old black Bible

It’s true, will never end

So whatever may come, when it’s all said and done

God’s Word will stand

From the beginning till now, it has not lost it’s power

It is still God’s inerrant Word

From cover to cover, it’s still the bestseller

Of any book in the world

Written down in those pages are the answers for the nations

And the truth to guide their path

But whatever they decide

They will surely realize

My God’s Word will stand

**Chorus**

Faithfully

"Faithfully" is one of Journey's top hits from the 80's and it depicts the strained relationship of a musician and his wife. (Real story between Journey's keyboard player and his wife)

It brings to mind our faithfulness to God. How far are we willing to go to be faithful to God? We know that God is always faithful to us (Psalm 108:4; 1 John 1:9), but we…lack that capability to be continually faithful because of our fallen state.

The journey of the Christian is not an easy one and is said so by the Lord Jesus Himself in John 16. He talked about rejection by our brethren and persecution from the world. The question is, will we be faithful? Will we endure to the end (Matt 10:22)? Will we obey Christ's command to persevere (Rev 3:10)? These are big questions for every Christian as we may often fail in doing so. (Self included)

Will we be faithful until He comes back for us?

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.
Hebrews 10:23
