What is faithfulness like? Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with patience the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning the shame, and sat down at the right hand of God.Heb 12 v 1 & 2 Faithfulness

What motivates faithfulness in God? Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is thy faithfulness Lam 3 v 22 & 23 Faithfulness

What motivates faithfulness in us? Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them round your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favour and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths. Prov 3 v Faithfulness

God is faithful – He will keep all his promises We should be faithful because God loves us and longs to reward our faithfulness “Well done, good and faithful servant” Faithfulness
