2 Samuel 24:1-25; Jeremiah 8:1-22; Ephesians 2:11-22
Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled [stands firm or established] in heaven. Psalm 119:89 NKJV
The Bible stands! This is the central verse of this psalm and it gives us much assurance in these difficult and changing times. Four times the psalmist assures us that God’s Word stands firm (vv. 144, 152, 160). Our society is deteriorating but rest assured His truth will not and cannot fail! His “faithfulness endures to all generations” (Ps. 119:90). “She (Sarah) judged (considered) Him faithful who had promised” (Heb. 11:11). Believe His Word. Let nothing rob you of this “blessed assurance!” —Jim Comte
May we read these Scriptures, and their truths believe,
Own our need as sinners, and God’s Son receive;
In assurance resting, His commands obey,
And in His grace growing, live for Him each day! —A. P. Gibbs
