Revelation 2:10 “Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.”
God gives His Holy Spirit to all who trust in Him, who place their faith in Him, who firmly believe that He is FAITHFUL and true. In contrast to human faithfulness, the spirit of faithfulness is God alive within us at work in our lives that we would be faithful like He is.
Faithfulness as a Christian, means full of faith, trustful, and not simply trustworthy, it is something you are. It is used also of God’s word as true and to be trusted. Faithfulness is a quality or attribute applied in the Scripture to both God and man. Faithfulness is one of the characteristics of God’s nature. If God were not faithful He would not be God.

A picture of FAITHFULNESS
Psalm 15 Lord, who may reside in Your tent? Who may settle on Your holy hill? One who walks with integrity, practices righteousness, And speaks truth in his heart.He does not slander with his tongue, Nor do evil to his neighbor, Nor bring shame on his friend; A despicable person is despised in his eyes, But he honors those who fear the Lord; He takes an oath to his own detriment, and does not change; He does not lend his money at interest, Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. One who does these things will never be shaken.
