Hello Pastor Jeffrey,

Thank you for your thoughtful and encouraging response. You beautifully reflected on Hebrews 13:8, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever,” and Malachi 3:6, “For I the Lord do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed.” These verses anchor us in the truth that God’s character is steadfast and His mercy enduring, offering us a refuge in times of change and uncertainty.

An additional verse that speaks to this constancy is Isaiah 40:8: “The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever.” This passage reminds us that while the world around us may decay and shift, God’s Word—and by extension, His promises—remain firm and eternal. It’s a powerful reassurance that what God has spoken will not be undone by time or circumstance.

Biblically, this truth calls us to build our lives on the foundation of God’s Word. Practically, it means creating habits that reinforce our trust in Him—daily Scripture reading, prayer journaling, and surrounding ourselves with a community that speaks truth during turbulent times. These rhythms help us internalize His faithfulness so that when trials come, our hearts are already trained to lean on Him.

You asked, “How do you remind yourself of God’s unchanging nature during moments of uncertainty?” For me, I find strength in meditating on the Psalms, especially those that recount God’s deliverance. I also revisit personal testimonies—moments when God showed up in unmistakable ways. These reflections become spiritual landmarks that guide me back to trust.

What Scriptures or songs have become anchors for you in seasons of change?

God Bless You, Pastor Johnson
