Lamentations 3:22-23 (ESV) - The Steadfast Love of God

Exposition

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases - Love between people is always based on ‘something’. That is why when that ‘something’ is no longer there, the love comes to an end. In a time of trouble, God appeared to Prophet Jeremiah and revealed to him that despite the torment and anguish he was going through as a result of Jerusalem’s situation God still loves him.
This means that in that supposedly bad condition, God’s love is available for you.
The bible says that God Himself is love. Love is defined by God. That is why God could give up, His Son Jesus Christ to die for the sins of the world.

his mercies never come to an end - Rather than judgement, God shows mercy. God’s grace and goodness is available to you at all times.

they are new every morning - Yesterday’s sins are forgiven if you go to God and ask for forgiveness.

great is your faithfulness - The faithfulness of God is described as ‘great’ and not small or ordinary. Whatever God has said He will do, He does because He does not need a committee to decide whether He will back up His word concerning you.
Accept God’s love and enjoy His faithfulness. Accept His outstretched arms welcoming you into His family. If you already have, continue to enjoy the grace that is available to His children.
Have a great day.

Prayer

Thank you for your unending love which is not seasonal. Thank you for your mercies, thank you for the grace that is available to me. Thank you because despite the situation I am in today, I can reach out to you and you will see me through. I declare that my ‘today’ will be better than my ‘yesterday’ in Jesus name. Amen
