God Does Not Grow Weary Or Faint

In the first chapter of John we see that God and His Word are one. We also see in the Word of God that He does not change. He doesn’t change, and His Word doesn’t change.

He tells us in Psalm 89:33,34 that He will not take his loving-kindness from us; He won’t break it off from us. He will not allow His faithfulness to fail, lie or be false to us. He will not break His covenant nor profane or alter the thing that is gone out of His mouth. He is faithful and true to His Word. He will not back down from what He says. He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

In Isaiah 55:11 the Lord tells us that His Word goes forth out of His mouth. It doesn’t return to Him without producing what it was sent to do. His Word accomplishes what He pleases and purposes and it will prosper in whatever it is sent to do. In other words, God’s Word contains within it the power to perform what it says it will do. God’s Word is Truth. There is no higher truth than His Word.

Look at the Word of God. Whatever it says you have, you have. Whatever it says you can do, you can do. God’s Word is Truth. For example, in one of the most familiar psalms in the Bible, Psalm 23, he Lord says that His goodness and unfailing love will follow us, pursue us all the days of our lives. That is true forever. When you see that, say: “That’s me.” That is what we are to do every time we find something in the Word of God. That is me. That belongs to me. Thank You, Lord, for making that possible for me. Thank You, Lord, for doing that for me. Thank You, Lord.

With this fact in mind that God’s Word is true and doesn’t change, we can see why the Lord exhorts us in Galatians 6:9 not to grow weary in well-doing. We are not to lose heart or grow weary or faint from doing what is right always, for in due season, at the appointed time, we shall reap, if we do not faint or give up or quit or lose courage. This is God’s promise to us right here in His Word. Take it; this truth belongs to you. It is yours. This is in the New Testament.

Let’s go to another familiar passage, this time in the Old Testament. We will be looking at the Amplified Bible.

Isaiah 40:28-31
Have you not known?
Have you not heard?
The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not faint or grow weary; there is no searching of His understanding.
He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength, [causing it to multiply and making it to abound].
Even youths shall faint and be weary, and [selected] young men shall feebly stumble and fall exhausted;
But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.

Even the young people who are full of energy and vitality can grow weary and faint in their human efforts and become exhausted. God does not faint or grow weary, so if we are one with Him, we don’t have to faint or grow weary. He gives power to us, increases our strength, makes our strength multiply in abundance when we grow weary or feel like we are going to faint. We can lean on Him and draw our strength from Him. He will take care of us and our situations, whatever they may be.

As we worship the Lord, wait on Him, we exchange our weakness for His strength. He infuses us with new vitality. It is like a divine blood transfusion. He gives us His power, His strength to go through to the other side of adversity. We stay with Him and we walk through to victory.
