  1. GOD NEVER FAILS ……”He never fails,” Zephaniah 3:5

  2. GOD NEVER FAILS • The character of God is that He is Faithful!

  3. GOD NEVER FAILS • Our God is one who never fails. • He is aware of every circumstance and situation at all times.

  4. GOD NEVER FAILS • All of God’s decisions are just. • His ways are never wrong.

  5. GOD NEVER FAILS • Take a moment and reflect upon His providence and how He has never failed to meet all of your needs.

  6. GOD NEVER FAILS • Share somethings that you like about God. • "What comes into our minds when we think about God.”

  7. GOD NEVER FAILS GOD is Omniscient: • This term refers to the all knowing nature of God. Webster defines it as “the quality of knowing all things at once; universal knowledge; knowledge unbounded or infinite.” He knows our very thoughts, our feelings, our desires and our needs. He knows our words before we say them and he knows our thoughts before we think them. He knows all of our ways. In fact, God even knew us before we were born. There are no secrets before Almighty God. 1 O LORD, you have searched me and you know me. 2 You know when I sit and when I rise Ps. 139:1

  8. GOD NEVER FAILS GOD is Omnipotent • This term refers to the all powerful nature of God. Looking at Webster again, this is defined as “almighty power; unlimited or infinite power; a word in strictness applicable only to God.” He is the all-powerful Lord who has created all things and sustains them by His Word • The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. Heb 1:3 (NIV)

  9. GOD NEVER FAILS GOD is Omnipresent • Where can I go from your Spirit? Or where can I flee from your presence? If I ascend into heaven, you are there; if I make my bed in hell, behold, you are there; if I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me. If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,” even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you." (Psalm 139:7-12

  10. GOD NEVER FAILS • God is omnipresent-Present everywhere at the same time • "‘Am I a God near at hand,’ says the Lord, ‘and not a God afar off? Can anyone hide himself in secret places, so I shall not see him?’ . . . ‘do I not fill heaven and earth?’ says the Lord?" (Jeremiah 23:23,24)

  11. GOD NEVER FAILS Everywhere-present • God is everywhere - Jer. 23:24; Psa. 139:7-10; 1 Kings 8:27. "This is not to say that God’s form is spread out so that parts of Him exist in every location. God is spirit; He has no physical form. He is present everywhere in the universe. No one can hide from Him and nothing escapes His notice."

  12. GOD NEVER FAILS Love • "He who does not love does not know God, for God is love." 1 John 4:8 (NKJV) God is concerned for his creatures, and especially his people. He is tender toward them, and does not take pleasure in their suffering or condemnation. He seeks the best for us, and he offers up his Son in love as a substitution for sin. God loves us so much that He gave His Son for us.

  13. GOD NEVER FAILS All-knowing • God knows all things - 1 John 3:20; Psa.147:5; Heb.4:13. This includes the past, the present, and the future. It includes actuality, and contingencies. That is, he knows what will happen, and he knows would "could" happen. There was never a time when God did not know anything. The greatest and deepest and most fascinating thing that God knows is himself, for his is infinitely deep in character and substance and beauty and wisdom. "For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor?" (Romans 11:34)

  14. GOD NEVER FAILS Eternal • God exists forever, meaning he has no beginning or end (cf. Psalm 90:2; 1 Tim. 1:17). He has always existed in the same way: fully and completely as God. "Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!" (Revelation 4:8)

  15. GOD NEVER FAILS Holiness • "To say that God is holy is to say that He is eternally separate and distinct from all impurity. The term holiness in Hebrew, qodesh, has the notion of separation, of uniqueness, of one-of-a-kindness." -Bruce Ware Unchanging • Also called immutability, this means that God never changes in his being (who he is) or promises (cf. Mal.3:6; James 1:17; Heb. 6:17).

  16. GOD NEVER FAILS Compassionate • He is not overwhelmed by any emotion, he is not incapacitated or weakened or stifled by any event or any amount of grief or love. Rather, God is totally self-controlled. While God does grieve, and does passionately love, he does so completely on purpose. • Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They as renewed every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. Lam. 3:23-24

  17. GOD NEVER FAILS All-powerful • God has all power. He can exercise dominion over the entire universe, carry out the purposes of his wisdom, govern the hearts of men, and even create things out of nothing. • All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. St. John 1:3 (NKJV)

  18. GOD NEVER FAILS All-wise • God has all wisdom. He works everything out for the good of his people, and for the display and enjoyment of his glory. This involves countless factors and people and events and decisions and all sorts of things that would drown any strategist. But not God. • Even when things look the worst, God is carrying out his perfect wisdom. He never fails, never lacks any foresight, and never estimates. He knows all, and plans all, and he loves to display the glory and beauty of his wisdom by accomplishing the seemingly impossible.

  19. GOD NEVER FAILS Self-existent • God's self-existence means that he does not need us or the rest of creation for anything. While everything other than God depends on God for everything, God depends on no one for existence. He is absolute reality, with whom we have to reckon. St. John 1:1 “In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”

  20. GOD NEVER FAILS Self-sufficient • "The Scriptures speak to the fact that God does not need anything that we humans need to survive. He requires no water, air, food, sleep or money. Counselors, supervisors, and advisors of any kind are of no need to Him. • He is self sufficient in all capacities this is hard for the human brain to consider, that someone does not need what we do to survive but He doesn’t" Ps. 121-He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

  21. GOD NEVER FAILS Immaterial • God is not fundamentally composed of matter, for he is spirit, and he created all matter (and all spirit other than himself). This does not mean that God is absolutely nothing ("immateriality" as a word can sometimes mean this), rather it means that God is nothing physical. "The true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth." (John 4:23-24) Good • Truly God is good to Israel. To such as are pure in heart. Ps. 73:1 (NKJV)

  22. GOD NEVER FAILS Gracious • God loves to give us what we don't deserve. He loves to pardon sin and lavish us with his goodness. He takes pleasure in giving gifts to people to display the glory of his resourcefulness, patience, and mercy. Eph. 1:7 (NKJV)- In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the good pleasure of His will.

  23. Merciful • God shows his mercy by not giving us the punishment we deserve. Mercy as used in the Bible frequently has a much wider sense which may be translated "loyal love". Ps. 100:5 For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations. Just • God is deeply concerned with making wrongs right. He lets no sinner off the hook without a fitting punishment, or a fitting substitutionary atonement. I John 1:9-If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

  24. GOD NEVER FAILS Sovereign The Sovereignty of God is the biblical teaching that all things are under God's rule and control, and that nothing happens without His direction or permission. God works not just some things but all things according to the counsel of His own will (see Eph. 1:11). His purposes are all-inclusive and never thwarted (see Isa. 46:11); nothing takes Him by surprise.

  25. GOD NEVER FAILS Sovereign • To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that God is God. To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that He is the Most High, doing according to His will in the army of Heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth, so that none can stay His hand or say unto Him what doest Thou? (Dan. 4:35). • To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that He is the Almighty, the Possessor of all power in Heaven and earth, so that none can defeat His counsels, defeat His purpose, or resist His will (Psa. 115:3).

  26. GOD NEVER FAILS • All moments of your life, He has appointed in His sovereignty so that He may be glorified and so that you can experience His goodness.

  27. GOD NEVER FAILS • When the wicked prevails and it appears that God is failing you, remember that He has never failed you before. • During the night of weeping when God’s face seems hidden, rest in His unfailing love because in the morning you will dance for His faithfulness never ends.

  28. GOD NEVER FAILS • His joy is always right around the corner. • His favor will last for your life time, so let that be reason to sing of His glory and give Him thanks forever. • He in unfailing. He is in everything so He can take care of everything concerning us.

  29. GOD NEVER FAILS • Let this meditation of His providence take you back to the cross where it is apparent that He has met your greatest need. • At the cross, God has justly punished your sins by placing them on His Son so you may know His mercy. • If He will not fail you in giving life, joy and peace, then He can be trusted.
