Daily Bible Reading “In Everything His Mercy Endures Forever” (Psalm 136:17-26)

In Everything, His Mercy Endures Forever

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 136:17-26. This Scripture talks about how God slew some of the most powerful and well-known kings, which refers to Deuteronomy 1:4, “After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei.”

Then, He gave the land of the enemy to Israel as a heritage. God redeemed them from their enemies and they declared, “His mercy endures forever.” The Psalmist also talks about God providing food for all beings and gives thanks to the God of heaven. Not only does God provide for His children, but He provides for the beast of the field, the foul of the air, and every living creature on the earth.

Whether we look at His creation, His protection, and His provision for His people, or His judgment on the enemies of His people, we see God’s strong mighty power and we are reminded, “His mercy endures forever.”

17 To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
18 And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
19 Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever:
20 And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever:
21 And gave their land for an heritage: for his mercy endureth for ever:
22 Even an heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy endureth for ever.
23 Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endureth for ever:
24 And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for ever.
25 Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.
