Psalms 136:1-9 God's faithful love endures forever

Simply put you and I need to be more thankful to God.  Why?  Because we have enough reasons too.  I'm going to bring to you some verses to make it a little less fuzzy for you.


1.  "Give thanks to the Lord for He is good! His faithful love endures forever."  There's a common misconception people have that God sits on his throne just looking for a reason to hurl lightening bolts at people.  Even if you read mythology or something with false gods in it you will find a description of gods who are fickle and to be feared.  You will find a lot of that in Percy Jackson, Wonder Woman and Thor.  That's not the picture we get in this verse.  
2.  "Give thanks to the God of gods.  His faithful love endures forever."  In Acts 17:16-34 Paul goes to the city of Athens and the people are worshiping idols.  There were so many idols there was even an altar to the unknown god.  Paul preaches to them and teaches them that all idols are false gods and introduces them to the God of all creation whose love endures forever.
3.  "Give thanks to the Lord of lords.  His faithful love endures forever."  Lords refers to rulers God has authority over all of them.  
4.  "Give thanks to Him alone who does mighty miracles.  His faithful love endures forever."  The biggest miracle in the world is God sent his son to die on a cross be raised to life and He is still changing lives today.  
5.  Give thanks to Him who made the heavens so skillfully.  His faithful love endures forever."  Watch the sky and see God's artwork.  
6.  "Give thanks to Him who placed the earth among the waters.  His faithful love endures forever."  He put all this together to house us ungrateful humans.  
7-9.  "Give thanks to Him who made the heavenly lights, the sun to rule the day and the moon and stars to rule the night.  His faithful love endures forever.  

God's love endures forever let that sink in.

I don't care where you've been sleeping by Don Francisco.  This song is completely about God's love.  If you think you can outrun it you can't God loves you and His faithful love endures forever and he simply waits for you to turn to him and seek him.  Stop running and seek the one who has been seeking you all your life.  I Don't Care Where You Been Sleeping - Don Francisco
