But each day the Lord pours His unfailing love upon me,
and through each night I sing His songs,
praying to God who gives me life.
These words were written by the Psalmist in a time of great discouragement. He spent his days and night in tears and was taunted by enemies who asked where his God is. But he expected his deliverance to come from God’s favour knowing that though things were bad, they shall not always be so. He knew that God pours His unfailing love on him everyday.
It is easy to "feel" the unfailing love of God when things are moving smoothly. But should you pass through discouraging periods, you might wonder where God is. You might wonder that if He truly loves you, how He can allow you go through such a period. The love of God is not dependent on what you have or what you do not have. It is not measured by the kind of situation you are in. It is an unconditional love for He first loved you.
Your Loving Father reminds you today, "I pour My love on you everyday." The love of God is free, it is not something you merit, but it is bestowed in a way of sovereignty. Open your eyes today to see and receive His unfailing love. Your Loving Father commands deliverance and commands the blessing. This He will do in the daytime, for God’s lovingkindness will make day in the soul at any time. Though weeping has endured for a night, a long night, yet joy will come in the morning.
In silence and solitude, when you have retired from the hurries of the world, appease yourself with the thoughts of God’s goodness. God is the God of your life, in whom you live and move, the author and giver of all your comforts. The love you receive in the day you ought to return thanks for at night.
Prayer: Loving Father, thank You for the unfailing love You pour on me each day. Thank You for commanding deliverance and the blessing for me. There may be times when I may not "feel" Your unfailing love. Help me to remember that Your love is more than just my feeling but is an unconditional love that remains with me no matter where I am. Today I choose to be conscious of Your unfailing love. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.
