Today God says:
 "My mercy endures forever"

He promises me:
  "O give thanks to the Lord; for He is good; because His mercy endures for ever". (Ps. 118:1)

My response to the word:
  Yes, God is good. He is so good to me. He saves me, loves me, heals me, and helps me. I am exceedingly thankful to Him, and I know His mercy in my life will endure forever. What a wonderful promise this is! His goodness and His mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in His house forever.

My prayer:
  Dear Lord, thank you for your mercies in my life. I present my body, soul, and spirit as living sacrifices to you because I know this is my reasonable service of worship to you in light of all your mercies to me.

Today's scriptures:
 "Certainly, goodness and mercy will stay close to me all the days of my life, and I will remain in the Lord's house for days without end". (Ps. 23:6 GW) "You are my help and my Saviour". (Ps. 70:5 GW) "Brothers and sisters, because of God's compassion toward us, I encourage you to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, dedicated to God and pleasing to Him. This kind of worship is appropriate for you". (Rom. 12:1 GW) "Praise the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! He is the Father who is compassionate and the God who brings comfort". (2 Cor. 1:3 GW)
