As I was meditating on the Psalm for today, I decided to share these two thoughts! First of all, let's look Psalm 89:1-2:
1 I will sing of the mercy and loving-kindness of the Lord forever; with my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness from generation to generation. 2 For I have said, Mercy and loving-kindness shall be built up forever; Your faithfulness will You establish in the very heavens [unchangeable and perpetual].
Loving-kindness is a great translation for the word "mercy" here! This is actually the Hebrew word "chesed", which means: goodness, kindness; faithfulness; steadfast love; grace; devotion. HIS love and devotion for YOU is eternal and powerful! He will NEVER change His mind concerning YOU! You have nothing to fear from flesh or the enemy because GREATER is the One Who lives IN you (1 John 4:4)! Expect, appreciate, walk in and then share this wonderful loving-kindness that HE has bestowed on YOU! AMEN! The second Truth that I was meditating on today is found in Psalm 89 also, in verses 14-18 from The Message Bible:
14 The Right and Justice are the roots of your rule; Love and Truth are its fruits. 15 Blessed are the people who know the passwords of praise, who shout on parade in the bright presence of God. 16 Delighted, they dance all day long; they know who you are, what you do — they can't keep it quiet! 17 Your vibrant beauty has gotten inside us — you've been so good to us! We're walking on air! 18 All we are and have we owe to God, Holy God of Israel, our King!
Is THIS the attitude of YOUR heart when you think of our wonderful Lord and all that HE has done for YOU? Let's make it so! He is worthy of this and so much more! AMEN! Here is Hillsong Young and Free with "Alive":
Shalom in Him!
