His steadfast love endures forever.
This doesn't need comments. Read it slowly and take it in. What exactly does this mean? Steadfast. Love. Endures. Forever. These words are accidents nor are the confined to my translation. The only change in the King James is Mercy instead of Steadfast Love. Personally I think the phrase "steadfast love" more adequately describes what God is doing, but "mercy" also tells a good story.
There are a few phrases that I feel would be awesome titles or subtitles to the Bible. This is probably the only one that comes directly from Scripture. The whole Bible is telling the story of how God's steadfast love endures forever. Not just when He feels like it. Not just when we deserve. It doesn't change. It doesn't fail. It has always been there, and it will always be there. The same mercies that were freely given to Moses where given to David and are given to me. Nothing about who God is has changed. Not one thing.
His steadfast love endures forever.
It really is that simple. There is no limits to what He will do for His beloved. There is no boundaries to what He can do in our lives. Praise the Lord!!
God of Mercy! Thank You for Your steadfast love. Thank you that it is so freely given to us. My heart swells with praise when I think about You love and mercy. I do not have words. Let this phrase be burned into the hearts of Your beloved that we may always know and trust in Your faithfulness.
Amen. Amen. Amen.
