Give Thanks to the Lord for His Forever for Whoever!

 

Psalm 118:

1 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
    for his steadfast love endures forever!
2 Let Israel say,
    “His steadfast love endures forever.”
3 Let the house of Aaron say,
    “His steadfast love endures forever.”
4 Let those who fear the Lord say,
    “His steadfast love endures forever.”
5 Out of my distress I called on the Lord;
    the Lord answered me and set me free.
6 The Lord is on my side; I will not fear.
    What can man do to me?

This great psalm, which we will spend three days considering, reminds us of two or more of the characteristics of God we have already considered: His goodness and steadfast love. They were things God's people could count on, and so can we.  It's not just the people of Israel and their priests, but anyone who fears the Lord, trusts in Him, calls out to Him for salvation. (Continue to read through verse 16). May you have true reason to call out in thanksgiving to God today.
