His Love Endures Forever!

Psalm 106:1-5, 47-48

1 Praise the LORD.
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
his love endures forever.

2 Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the LORD
or fully declare his praise?

3 Blessed are they who maintain justice,
who constantly do what is right.

4 Remember me, O LORD, when you show favor to your people,
come to my aid when you save them,

5 that I may enjoy the prosperity of your chosen ones,
that I may share in the joy of your nation
and join your inheritance in giving praise.

47 Save us, O LORD our God,
and gather us from the nations,
that we may give thanks to your holy name
and glory in your praise.

48 Praise be to the LORD, the God of Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.
Let all the people say, "Amen!"
Praise the LORD.

Wow! It has been too long since I last wrote anything down. I am ashamed of my lack of performance in getting into His Word. I praise God for His faithfulness to me even when I am not as faithful to Him. The verses between verse 5 and verse 47 are an accounting of areas that the children of Israel did not follow God like they should have. I was living in these verses the past 16 days. It seems like ages have past.

I am truly thankful that God does not hold my sins or lack of getting His Word out to others against me. I am righteous in His sight because of what Jesus did for me on the cross. Praise God! I can boldly come to you today and proclaim God's faithfulness will long outlast my faithfulness to Him. I do praise God because His love does endure forever. I may try to proclaim the mighty acts of God and what He has done, but none can do it quite like His own Word. Doing what is right is doing what God calls you to do.

God has called me to be in the businesses I am currently in and to start more as He leads. I am called to preach the Good News to the lost and to share the love of Jesus with everyone I meet. I am called to be the head and not the tail, to be above and not beneath, to be healthy, to be wise and to be prosperous. I am called to be a sower of the seed of the Word of God and to be generous with my sowing. I am called to love my wife like Christ loves the church. I am called to be a light in the darkness and to shine the light of God's love and not hide that light. I am called to be hungry for His Word and I am called to meditate on His Word day and night. I am called to not look back at what has happened, good or bad, but to look forward to what God has next for me.

Praise God for His faithfulness for His love endures forever! Praise God for His faithfulness for His love endures forever! Praise God for His faithfulness for His love endures forever! Amen.

Numbers 6:24-26 (AMP)

The Lord bless you and watch, guard, and keep you; The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you; The Lord lift up His [approving] countenance upon you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually).
