The Bible teaches that God is always faithful, that He’s always true to his word. Saints throughout history have affirmed it, and hymns and worship songs celebrate it.
But what if it doesn’t look that way to you? You’re not alone. The Bible is full of examples of God’s children struggling to trust him in seasons of disappointment, discouragement, danger, disaster, depression, and deep grief—only to see God’s faithfulness to them manifest in surprising ways.
These meditations are designed to help you grow in your ability to recognize God’s faithfulness in places you may not typically look, at times you don’t expect, and in providences— especially the most disturbing and devastating ones—that often don’t look like God’s faithfulness.
Because the more you see it, the more wonderful God’s faithfulness becomes to you. And the more you’ll realize that “all the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness” (Psalm 25:10).

The 3rd key is to take steps to engage the practical with faith. Faith that overcomes. There's likely something you need to accelerate in a big way. Addressing a challenge. Accessing a door of possibility. Ask the Holy Spirit what you should target with focus and acceleration.
This is the 3rd in a series on acceleration from Nehemiah.
