Today's Meditation - Psalms
Psalm 118:1-7
Because God’s mercy endures forever, and based on His goodness, we can rely upon His protection, His answers, and His blessing. The believer has the confidence that when we call upon the Lord, He answers. The Lord is “on my side” says the psalmist; therefore, “I will not fear: what can man do unto me?” Jesus told us not to fear the one who can kill our body, but rather fear Him Who can cast both body and soul into hell.
Verse for Meditation: Verse 1 – “O give thanks unto the LORD; for He is good: FOR His mercy endureth for ever.”
