Lovingkindness

By Chris Baxter

I have penned another devotional prayer beginning with the phrase "God, You are...". Praise Him with me as we celebrate His deep love for each of us.

God, You are Lovingkindness. I have finally come to know and now believe the love which You have for me. I feel it every breath I take, and it is better than life! You have rescued me, You have redeemed me, and You continue to reward me with Yourself. My soul will forever testify that You are gracious, and righteous; yes, O God, You are compassionate. You preserve the simple; for I was brought low, and You saved me. Indeed, how precious is Your lovingkindness, O God. I will savor You, as You continually pour into me. But tell me this, how can I contain this love that is as high as the heavens are above the earth? I simply cannot! I must overflow. So hear my heart sing to the world, “Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, O my soul! I will praise the Lord while I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being”…”for His lovingkindness is everlasting.”

I John 4:16; Psalm 63:3; Psalm 116:5-6; Psalm 36:7; Romans 5:5; Psalm 103:11; Psalm 146:1-2; Psalm 118:1

Daily Prayer

One will say this...

I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants. They will spring up like grass in a meadow, life poplar trees by flowing streams. One will say, "I belong to the Lord;" another will call himself by the name of Jacob; still another will write on his hand, "The Lord's." Isaiah 44:3-4

Dear Lord,

You have fulfilled your promise by pouring your Spirit into all those who call on Jesus as Savior. In Christ, we have life! What a divine privilege to be yours. Amen.
