Get the appDaily Bible Reading, December 2022: God’s Renewing Word of JoyНамуна
December 2
Introduction
Today’s reading is a hymn of thanksgiving for God’s eternal goodness and love. Written as a litany that was probably sung by the priests during worship, the words “his love is eternal” are a congregational response at the end of each verse.
Scripture Reading
Psalm 136
Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 136:1
Give thanks to the LORD, because he is good; his love is eternal.
Reflect
Verses 4-9 recount the story of creation as recorded in Genesis 1:1-19, and verses 10-22 recall God’s saving acts in Israel’s history. When reading this psalm, what is the effect of the repeated response at the end of each verse? Try writing your own litany by recalling times in your life when you experienced God’s goodness and love and inserting the words “his love is eternal” at the end of each sentence.
Pray
Your love, O Lord God, is eternal. I thank and praise you for your goodness and proclaim your mighty deeds. Your love is eternal! Amen
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 138: A prayer of thanksgiving for God’s love and care.
