Worship time: “Foreverandever Etc.” (David Crowder Band)
Needing a little reminder today that God’s love for those of us who are in Jesus Christ lasts forever and ever and ever . . . ?
Isaiah 54:10: For the mountains may depart
and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,
says the LORD, who has compassion on you.
PSALM 145 (KJV)
1 I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever. 2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever. 3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable. 4 One generation shall praise thy 5 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works. 6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness. 7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness. 8 The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. 9 The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. 10 All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee. 11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power; 12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom. 13 Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations. 14 The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down. 15 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season. 16 Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing. 17 The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works. 18 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth. 19 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them. 20 The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy. 21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
(HT: Norm, for the Isaiah verse!)
Any day’s a good day for a little Crowder, right?

I like the Isaiah verse a lot as well. God’s promises will never fail and he will not lose us forever and ever and ever and ever etc….
One day everyone will agree that God is real, He created the universe, He isn’t kidding, and His love is larger than anything we can imagine.
@llamalima - Amen! Norm pulsed that verse earlier today…Then I started humming Foreverandever…
@ANVRSADDAY - Yes, everyone! He isn’t kidding! Thanks, Frank!
That was wonderful… I need to re-read again to get it in.
But God will never fail us.
