This is a book about God’s jealousy for his integrity, his passion to be believed, on the basis of his words alone. Throughout Scripture God expresses his determination to be known as the God who keeps his words. He has resolved that every person and nation will see and confess that all his words are reliable down to every last syllable, jot, and tittle. Learning to trust a God who is sovereign and in control, especially in the ache and throb of life, means hanging on to the conviction that everything he says is utterly dependable.

… a very useful work which is not a conventional defence of the complete trustworthiness of God’s Words encapsulated in Scripture, but more of a series of applications for believers. The book rests on the foundation that God’s word is true, and is to be trusted, and that faith is intellectual, emotional and volitional.

… he meticulously shows from Scripture itself that God is true to his word, and that great blessings and comfort come to those who trust him. Deeply biblical and thoroughly pastoral, this book is a must–read for every Christian.

… does not merely list the usual prooftexts (though there’d be nothing wrong with that!) and draw out their implications; no, he demonstrates in concrete text after text within Scripture that God’s words are trustworthy. Talbert not only trusts God’s words, he models that truth by rooting it in careful examination of those words.

Layton Talbert explains clearly, and in an engaging way, that if we do believe what God says, we bring glory to Him; and we enjoy the confidence in his sovereignty that enables us to ‘laugh at the days to come’ (Proverbs 31:25).
