Psalms 136:1-3, 26
“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever. Give thanks to the God of gods. His love endures forever. Give thanks to the Lord of Lords: His love endures forever. Give thanks to the God of heaven. His love endures forever.”
Psalms 136:1-3, 26 NIV
Have you remembered to say thank you today? There is a simple message in the words of this psalm. Give thanks. Sometimes when we are in the midst of our struggles and the pressures of life it is easy to lose sight of the big picture of what has been done for each one of us through Jesus Christ. Do you not find it very interesting that we live in a time when God is seldom given honor or praise for His protection from the elements around us and our enemies who would overtake and oppress us. Because of the innate sin of man, he does nothing but evil continually how little we realize how bad life would really be if God did not restrain that sin. Sometimes we get a glimpse of it when something especially heinous happens, but even then, we have no idea what our life would be if God abandoned all of mankind. Eternity, however, will totally bear out the love of God whose steadfast love endures forever. At the end of time all mankind will experience and understand this truth. Those who have never become believers in Christ will experience an eternal Hell totally devoid of God, when the complete depravity of the Devil and man will be lashed out upon all those who are there with no hope of escape. Those who are Christians, however, will dwell with God forevermore. God will remove Satan and the sin from their own heart so that they will live a life of perfection in the presence of God forever. Gratefulness of heart to the Lord God almighty is like a golden stream that threads its way through this wonderful song of praise. We have a repetitive chorus that rehearses the truth of God's goodness. It is the recurring reminder, that God's love and grace touches every facet of our lives, "O give thanks to the LORD; for He is good: for His mercy endures forever."The repeating, melodious heartbeat, that caresses every part of the created universe, rejoices that His loving-kindness is everlasting, His steadfast mercies endure forever, His faithful love is never-ending, and His unwavering goodness, stretches into the furthest extremities of eternity. Let us endeavour to give thanks to the Lord and be glad in Him! Let all who are saved by grace and morally upright, shout for joy to the God of our salvation! Let us glory in the name of the LORD, for "praise is pleasant and lovely" and praise is "comely for the upright." May we rejoice in the Lord and delight, day by day, in His gracious deliverance. People of God, open your mouth’s wide and give thanks to the Lord!!!
Father thank You for this day and we thank You for all Your loving-kindness towards us and we join with the Psalmist in giving grateful thanks to You, for You are good and tender, gentle and faithful, upright and true.
