In his Psalm of repentance after committing adultery with Bathsheba, David makes reference to the importance of faithfulness.  He says, “You desired faithfulness … Renew a steadfast spirit within me … (and) Grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.”

For whatever reason David lapsed into unfaithfulness, he quickly understood the value of maintaining a faithfulness of devotion to the Lord so he wouldn’t have another moral fall.

Faithfulness in devotion prevents unfaithfulness in morality.

PRAYER:  Father, You are faithful. We want to be like You and display to this world a steadfastness in our devotion to You and Your ways.
