LOVE AND FAITHFULNESS GO BEFORE YOU

Passage: Psalm 89:1~18  

Key verse: 89:14

First, 'your love stands firm forever' (1-4). Psalm 89 was written in a time when David's dynasty was in jeopardy (38-45). Yet God's love and faithfulness never changes. The key of this truth is anchored in God's own words: He gave his covenant to David, a promise he has kept in sending Jesus as King of kings and Lord of lords. Second, 'who is like you, Lord God Almighty?' (5-18) No one and nothing can compare with the Lord's glory, power, and faithfulness. He created and sustains all things, to the joy of his creation. His rule is uncontested. His arm is endowed with power to crush and scatter enemies. He is righteous and just in his power and authority. Only the Lord is able to give such love and faithfulness. Blessed are all who learn to acclaim him, who walk in the light of his presence. As we hold to his promises, we too can rejoice and celebrate his love and faithfulness.

Prayer: Father, thank you for the clear expression of your eternal love and faithfulness to us in Jesus. Let me sing your praises forever.

One Word: Sing of the Lord's great love forever
