Par les miséricordes de l'Éternel, nous ne sommes pas consumés, car ses compassions n'échouent pas. Elles sont nouvelles chaque matin ; Grande est Ta fidélité. -Lamentations 3:22-23
Je me suis souvent demandé si, en tant que croyants, nous aurions davantage foi dans le Seigneur et confiance en sa volonté de travailler en notre faveur si nous reconnaissions vraiment la grandeur de sa fidélité. Un regard sur la signification littérale du mot hébreu "emunah" utilisé ici nous donne un aperçu du fondement sur lequel le Seigneur nous appelle à nous tenir debout.
Emunah signifie littéralement fermeté, stabilité, fidélité, fidélité, conscience, constance, certitude ; ce qui est permanent, durable, inébranlable. Emunah vient d'un mot qui signifie "être ferme, sûr, établi et stable". "Amen" est dérivé de ce même mot et signifie "C'est fermement, vraiment ainsi !" Emunah est souvent traduit par "fidélité" ou "vérité", car la vérité est considérée comme quelque chose de finalement certain, stable et immuable.
Peu importe ce qui peut secouer votre vie aujourd'hui, étant enracinés dans Sa grande fidélité, nous serons en sécurité en Lui.
Through the LORD’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. -Lamentations 3:22-23
I have often wondered if we as believers would have more faith in the Lord and trust in His willingness to work on our behalf if we truly recognized the greatness of His faithfulness. A look at the literal meaning of the Hebrew word “emunah” used here gives us insight into the foundation upon which the Lord calls us to stand.
Emunah literally means firmness, stability, faithfulness, fidelity, conscientiousness, steadiness, certainty; that which is permanent, enduring, steadfast. Emunah comes from a word meaning “to be firm, sure, established, and steady.” “Amen” is derived from this same word and means “It is firmly, truly so!” Emunah is often translated “faithfulness” or “truth,” as truth is considered something ultimately certain, stable, and unchangingly fixed.
No matter what may be shaking in your life today, being rooted in His great faithfulness, we shall stand secure in Him.
