Psalm 136:1  Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good.
His love endures forever. (New International Version)

His love endures forever. This psalm repeats these words again and again and again. The repetition makes a point. Read the whole song and see. In case you are having difficulty thinking of things to thank God for on this Thanksgiving Day, the psalmist gives us twenty-six distinct ideas to stimulate your gratitude.

Each of these twenty-six remembrances of God’s faithfulness in the past serves to remind us that as God has been, so he will always be. He never changes. He is good all the time, the song says. The song also says, all the time God is good. This is truth without any mixture of error.

God is love. He demonstrates his love from generation to generation, and from age to age. He made up his mind before the world began that he loved you. Before you were born, he knew you and loved you. Before you turned your heart toward him, he knew you and loved you. As you took your first steps of faith, he knew you and loved you. Wherever you happen to stand today, he knows you and loves you.

There’s more, so much more. Wherever he leads from where you are today, he will do so in love. His goodness and love are always available to give you guidance. Psalm 23:6 says, 

“Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of the LORD forever.” 
(New Living Translation).

I will give thanks from a grateful heart to the Giver of All Good Things.

Our Father, you are the Giver of All Good Things. Every good and perfect gift comes from your hand (James 1:17, 18). You have loved us forever. You will love us forever. You guide and you provide. Everything you do in our lives is a product of your love that endures forever. How good you are! How amazing is your grace! How abundant is your mercy! How could we not sing your praise and offer our thanks? Hallelujah and amen!

Daily D – Judges 13:18

Judges 13:18 “Why do you ask my name?” the angel of the Lord replied. “It is too wonderful for you to understand.”

Daily D – Judges 3:4

Judges 3:4 These people were left to test the Israelites—to see whether they would obey the commands the Lord had given to their ancestors through Moses.

Daily D – Judges 2:10

Judges 2:10 After that generation died, another generation grew up who did not acknowledge the Lord or remember the mighty things he had done for Israel.

Daily D – Joshua 21:45

Joshua 21:45 Not a single one of all the good promises the Lord had given to the family of Israel was left unfulfilled; everything he had spoken came true.

Daily D – Joshua 14:10-13

Joshua 14:10-13 “Now, as you can see, the LORD has kept me alive and well as he promised for all these forty-five years since Moses made this promise—even while Israel wandered in the wilderness. Today I am eighty-five years old. I am as strong now as I was when Moses sent me on that journey, and I can still travel and fight as well as I could then. So give me the hill country that the Lord promised me. You will remember that as scouts we found the descendants of Anak living there in great, walled towns. But if the LORD is with me, I will drive them out of the land, just as the LORD said.”
So Joshua blessed Caleb son of Jephunneh and gave Hebron to him as his portion of land.
