Psalm 118:1-4; 14 (ESV)
HIS STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES FOREVER
“[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,
The LORD is my strength and my song;
HE HAS BECOME MY SALVATION.”
[14] The LORD is my strength and my song;
HE HAS BECOME MY SALVATION.”
The writings of King David are exquisitely recorded in Scripture, especially in the book of the Psalms. King David was “gifted” from HEAVEN ABOVE to write the WORD given to him by our CREATOR! In verse 4 & 14 above David writes “The LORD is my strength and my song; HE HAS BECOME MY SALVATION.” Since David declared “The LORD is my strength and song”, the fact that the LORD was his SALVATION should be rather obvious to we who also have WALKED THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH (Psalm 23:4)!
However, THREE TIMES in THREE VERSES King David writes “HIS STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES FOREVER”! Most writers tend to repeat what needs to be emphasized and remembered! “HIS STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES FOREVER” is comforting to we who have placed our FAITH in JESUS. HE has NEVER failed me, even when HE was crucified on Calvary, JESUS was being obedient to HIS FATHER in order to purchase my salvation! “The LORD is my strength and my song; HE HAS BECOME MY SALVATION” can be sung because “HIS STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES FOREVER”!!!
