This morning I was reminded of Martha Munizzi's song, "Your Latter Will Be Greater". "'The silver is Mine and the gold is Mine,' declares the LORD of hosts. 'The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,' says the LORD of hosts, 'and in this place I will give peace,' declares the LORD of hosts." (Haggai 2:9) Over and over in God's Word, He gives us GREATER than the former. He give us NEW to replace the old:
Grace to grace - John 1:16
Grace to grace - John 1:16
· Faith to faith - Romans 1:17
· Glory to glory - 2 Corinthians 3:11
· Righteousness to righteousness – Philippians 3:6
· Law to law – Romans 8:2
So undeserving, yet He gives me His best! Halleluia!
"Bless the LORD, O my soul, And all that is within me, bless His holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget none of His benefits; Who pardons all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases;…" (Psalm 103:1-2)
"Blessed be the Lord, who daily loads us with benefits..." (Psalm 68:19)
"It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness." Lamentations 3:22-23
I looked up the word, "compassions" and found the following in Strong's Concordance:
רַחַם racham, rakh'-am; from H7355; compassion (in the plural); by extension, the womb (as cherishing the fetus); by implication, a maiden:—bowels, compassion, damsel, tender love, (great, tender) mercy, pity, womb.
Just as a Mother carries, protects and nurtures a baby in the womb, God NEVER fails to do the same for us on a DAILY basis. What manner of LOVE is this? My heart is overwhelmed.
