GOD’S WORD STANDS FIRM

Psalm 119:89-91 NLT 

89 Your eternal word, O Lord,

stands firm in heaven.

90 Your faithfulness extends to every generation,

as enduring as the earth you created.

91 Your regulations remain true to this day,

for everything serves your plans.

114 You are my refuge and my shield;

Your word is my source of hope.

If ever we have a need for security for the days ahead, we need look no further than these verses today. They breathe stability and hope into us as we absorb their truth into our spirit. They talk of God’s word being eternal, that it stands firm in heaven, how much more so can we stand on it, and walk into our future because of that truth.

These verses talk of God’s faithfulness going beyond ourselves, of it going into our following generations which is so encouraging as we look at the way things are going in the world. God has promised to be faithful to our families even if they’re off course at the minute, He will bring backsliders home and heal them. (Isaiah 57:18-19/Hosea 14:4)

When we read ‘everything serves your plans’ it helps us keep things in perspective, to know God is ultimately in control and that His plans and purposes for the world and our individual lives remain the same.

So be encouraged today, no matter what changes may come, or what is going on around us, we can praise our God with joyfulness, and the certainty that our eternal hope is secure in His Word, and that He will always be our refuge and our shield.😊

Let’s give Him all our praise, and all the glory today. In Jesus name. Amen.
