Psalm 145:13
Are You Worried About Things Ending?
Do you ever worry about the end? A job ends. Time with loved ones ends. But there is One who has no beginning or end: God.
In Psalm 90:2, Moses points out that God is everlasting. “Before the mountains were born or You gave birth to the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.”
Jeremiah 10:10 refers to God as Everlasting King. “But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and the Everlasting King.”
Psalm 145:13 assures us His kingdom is everlasting.
Habakkuk 3:6 points out that in addition to God’s kingdom being everlasting, His ways are everlasting.
The prophet Isaiah personalizes the Everlasting God by calling Him “Everlasting Father” in Isaiah 9:6.
Psalm 103:17 tells us God’s love is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him.
Deuteronomy 33:27 says we can rest in God’s everlasting arms.
If you ever feel a sense of loss or that everything dear to you is ending, remember that God will be with you forever and will be the same Everlasting Father that He has always been.
Lord, You are the EVERLASTING God and Father in whose Everlasting Arms I can rest and in whose Everlasting Love and Kingdom I can live. I rejoice in You.
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, I praise and thank You for Your ENDURING love, praise, righteousness, Word, and kingdom.
