STEADFAST LOVE has always been, won’t be forgotten, is God’s to give/show, goes before God; goes with His faithfulness and is good/great towards us; STEADFAST LOVE gives us access to Himself, where He lives, meeting with Him; God delights in STEADFAST LOVE--looks for it; He is quick to show STEADFAST LOVE/plentiful redemption vs. anger; bc of this He leads me to His purpose for me; STEADFAST LOVE is shown by exalting/glorifying His Name/Word -- not ours
STEADFAST LOVE reaches to and above the heavens and fills the earth;
STEADFAST LOVE is something He shows abundantly, tangibly, wondrously, faithfully keeping His promises -- how He treats us in our pitiful/sinful/desperate (besieged! pits! danger! mud! enemies! sins! death! rebellion!) states
STEADFAST LOVE protects, satisfies, crowns, comforts, preserves, holds up, secures, enlivens, gladdens, brings joy to, gives victory, provides for, gives favor to, surrounds, accompanies, redeems/delivers, avenges, watches over, guides, atones for, forgives, is upon US
His holy character, wonders in creation, deliverance from Egypt (sin’s bondage), giving a land to His people (life with Him), continuing to care for His pitiful people -- examples of how God shows His STEADFAST LOVE from Psalm 136 where the phrase "resounds like a gong"
STEADFAST LOVE lasts forever (everlasting to everlasting) in His covenant to Jesus’, David’s, Abraham’s fams -- and to His children/betrothed bride -- STEADFAST LOVE will not be restrained; stands even after the elements are destroyed;
STEADFAST LOVE is better and more precious than anything in life - boast, riches, experiences;
STEADFAST LOVE is the most desired quality in men- therefore look to develop it in your life by devising good toward others; the wise consider STEADFAST LOVE
there is a responsibility on humans to meditate on, remember(not forget!!), receive, reflect and teach (not conceal/remain silent) STEADFAST LOVE by having it in our hearts, words, songs and lives; if we do not - it can lead to rebellion; STEADFAST LOVE produces bowing down and giving thanks; gives spiritual strength to obey
when STEADFAST LOVE is your trust/before your eyes/appealed to/asked for/your hope, you shall not be moved, His eye is on you, this abounds to you, He takes pleasure in you
at times STEADFAST LOVE seems hidden and the way is confusing- nowhere in sight - ask God to remember His STEADFAST LOVE, speak it to you, hope in this anyway -- especially in the morning
STEADFAST LOVE can be removed, rejected, forsaken by human rebellion by consistent breaking of their wholehearted covenant with their God to the worship of idols instead... will I choose to walk with Him today?
He IS MY STEADFAST LOVE, Fortress, Stronghold, Deliverer, Shield, Refuge, Conqueror. <3
