Psalms 136:2-3
Give thanks to the God of gods,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
Tag: God’s steadfast love makes Him GOD!!
In Psalm 136 the phrase, “... for his steadfast love endures forever” is in each line of each of the verses. It is the “refrain” of the psalm. In the first line of each verse we read about something great about God and in the second line we read, “... for his steadfast love endures forever.” The attribute of God mentioned in the first line is based upon the attribute of God’s steadfast love in the second line. God’s love is the center of the Psalm because God’s love is the center of God. We can rely on God to always love. His sacrifice of His Son was done out of love. His discipline of our life is done out of love. God’s offer of salvation to a wicked mankind who mocks His love, is done out of love. When we sin, repeatedly, His forgiveness for that sin is done out of God’s love. We can rejoice and praise God that His love is not fluid, fluctuating or faulty. God’s love toward those He places His love upon is STEADFAST.
Ephesians 1:4-5
even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. IN LOVE he predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,
