BIG IDEA: Faithfulness to Jesus obeys, endures, and never backs down.
FAITHFULNESS OBEYS (vv. 7–13)
Faithfulness starts with simple, surrendered obedience.
FAITHFULNESS ENDURES (vv. 14–20)
Faithfulness doesn’t stop when resistance starts.
FAITHFULNESS NEVER BACKS DOWN (vv. 21–29)
It is better to lose your life than lose your faithfulness.
FAITHFULNESS RETURNS TO JESUS (v. 30)
Faithfulness begins and ends with Jesus.
QUESTION TO PONDER
Am I measuring my life by faithfulness to Jesus or by results and approval?
