YOU HAVE HIS MERCY
“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His lovingkindness (graciousness, mercy, compassion) endures forever.”
Psalm 136:1 (WEB)
Main Text: Main text: 2 Chronicles 5:1-14
God’s mercy endures forever! His willingness to act on man’s behalf is still operating in the earth. His mercy never runs out neither has it become weakened or abated.
The word translated “mercy” in the original language means “loyal, steadfast, enduring love.” The refrain “His mercy endures forever” (KJV and NKJV) is also translated, “His faithful love endures forever” (NLT) and “His steadfast love endures forever” (ESV). Mercy, or loyal love, is one of the most prominent attributes of God’s character. By His very nature, He shows unstoppable, limitless, everlasting mercy, even to those who don’t deserve it: “Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy” (Micah 7:18)
Thousand of years ago, when Solomon built the temple of the Lord, the trumpeters and singers lifted up their voice as one they praised the Lord saying “He is good and His mercies endures forever” He’s still plenteous in mercy unto them that call upon Him. With your spirit dare to stretch your faith to take in the boundless mercy of God.
Confession
Thank You ABBA for Your mercy endures forever. I enjoy the limitless blessing of God, I am born of God and I overcome strife and fear. I am loved of the Lord! Hallelujah!
