41 times in the Old Testament, you will read the expression, “His mercy endures forever.” Perhaps not surprisingly, 33 of those 41 times are in the book of Psalms. And one of those psalms, which has 26 verses in it, contains that marvelous expression 26 times.
At the end of every verse in Psalm 136, the psalmist exclaims, “For His mercy endures forever.” Is that overkill? Is that a bit redundant? Certainly not! The psalmist reflected on the supremacy of God, on the power of God, on the wisdom of God, on the creation of God, and he came to one conclusion: “His mercy endures forever.” The psalmist then reflected on all that God had done in leading and protecting Israel and came to the same resounding conclusion: “His mercy endures forever.”
Take time to consider the majesty of your God! Take time to consider all that your God has done for you, is doing for you and has promised to do for you! Is there any better explanation for everything in your life than, “His mercy endures forever”?
