God wants us to see that the fire of His faithfulness is still burning today. R. Andrew Mathews in his book, “Born for Battle” says this. “Hudson Taylor built the structure of the China Inland Mission in God’s faithfulness. He claimed: ‘There is a God. He has spoken in His Word. He means all He has said and will do all He has promised.’ One ground for this confidence was the text, ‘Have faith in God’, which he interpreted rightly to read, ‘Hold God’s faithfulness’….There had to be adequate assurances that God would except responsibility for the involvement of literal obedience to His command. ‘Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness,’ He has promised, ‘and all these things shall be added unto you….He abideth faithful: He cannot deny Himself.'”
