Failure
When All Else Falls Away, Count On This Enduring
Do you ever feel like things are changing so quickly, you can barely keep up? In the midst of change, it’s a blessing to know there are some things we can count on staying the same.
Consider the following that you can count on enduring forever.
“The lovingkindness of God endures all day long,” Psalm 52:1.
“Splendid and majestic is His work, and His righteousness endures forever,” Psalm 111:3.
“His praise endures forever,” Psalm 111:10.
“Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and Your dominion endures throughout all generations,” Psalm 145:13.
“His love endures forever,” 1 Chronicles 16:34.
“His Word endures forever,” 1 Peter 1:25.
Perhaps King Nebuchadnezzar summed up God’s enduring nature and reign best when he said, “I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever; for His dominion is an everlasting dominion, and His kingdom endures from generation to generation,” Daniel 4:34.
If you’re looking around and wondering what the future holds, you can rest in the assurance that God’s love, Word, praise, righteousness, and kingdom endure forever.
Heavenly Father, we praise and thank You for Your ENDURING love, praise, righteousness, Word, and kingdom.

I Did it Again: Failed
I did it again: failed. I failed to pay attention to my thoughts. I failed to check them against God’s Word. I failed to return Jesus’s love by loving Him with all my heart, mind, soul, and strength. I failed to honor Him with my lips. Have you ever been there, done that? What happens when a Christian sins? Is God done with us? No. First Chronicles 16:34 and 1 Peter 1:25 tell us, “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever” and “His Word endures forever.” Every day God loves us. Every day, we can turn to His Word, the truth, and learn how to walk by it. If you, like me, did it again and failed God in some way recently, look to Him. He loves us and continually gives us the opportunity to repent and receive His grace.
Heavenly Father and Lord Jesus Christ, thank You for Your enduring love and Word. Help us live it out in a reciprocal way with You and others.
