My 2025 Theme Verses: Ezra 7:10 (ESV) For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. Daniel 1:8 (ESV) But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king’s food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself.

Just in case you didn't get it ... GOD'S LOVINGKINDNESS IS EVERLASTING - Psalm 134-136
Psalm 136:24 "And has rescued us from our adversaries, For His lovingkindness is everlasting." There are 26 verses in Psalm 136. Each one of them states some great act of God which is then followed by this refrain: For His Lovingkindness is everlasting. If you didn't get it, God's love is everlasting. When you sin, it is everlasting. When He has to destroy a wicked king and give His people the kings land, His love is everlasting (18-22). When He redeemed us from our Egypt He did so in love (10-11). When God created the heavens and the earth He did so in His great love (1-9). God's love is "everlasting." We know nothing of "everlasting." We only know temporary. How many times have we purchased some urgent material good we couldn't live without only to see it disregarded within years, if not months. Our "stuff" wears out. We only see things last for awhile. We don't know everlasting. We only know earthly and conditional love. Those who love us "fall out of love" with us. Those who say they love us mistreat us and lie to us. Those who say they love us stop loving us. God's love is "everlasting" - it is eternal - no beginning or end. NO MATTER WHAT WE DO! We are loved by a God who will "rescue" us from our adversaries ... Satan himself ... as we trust in His great and EVERLASTING love.
