For the mountains shall depart and 30 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: the hills be removed, but my kindness shall not depart 31 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: from thee.

All your words are true, and you never 36 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 1: go back on your promises. I worship you for you 37 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: are a God of covenant. Jesus, I praise you, for 38 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: my righteousness is found in you. You relentlessly pursue me, 39 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: and you never give me up. I adore you, King 40 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: of my heart. God's love is irrevocable. Our God is 41 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: a covenant keeping God, and he promised to love us forever. 42 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: His relationship with us is not based on the time 43 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: we live, in the place we find ourselves in, or 44 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: the physical geology of the earth around us. The entire 45 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: earth will burn, a new heaven and earth will come down. 46 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: We will be in new bodies, and God's love for 47 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: us will endure were Sometimes we base our lives on 48 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: things that seem sure and certain, but only God is 49 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: our rock and our strong tower. There is no mountain, 50 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: hill or fortress in which we can trust more than 51 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: we can trust in His love for us. God desires 52 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: to do kindness towards us. God wants to give you peace, 53 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 1: steady your weak knees and give you rest. His promise 54 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: of love and relationship will never be broken. There is 55 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: no universe in which God will just stop loving you. God, 56 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: in his mercy, has based his covenant on himself, for 57 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: He never changes, and in him there is no shadow 58 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: of turning. Even if you are unfaithful, God never will be. 59 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: This is your opportunity to cleanse your heart. Be honest 60 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: with yourself and with God. In prayer, confess your sins 61 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: to the Holy Spirit. Tell him of the areas you 62 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: are struggling with. Think for a minute on all the 63 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: times God showed himself faithful, those moments where God placed 64 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: someone in your life to show you kindness, The times 65 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 1: of chaos when you found peace in Christ, situations where 66 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: oppression and isolation threatened to overwhelm you, but the Holy 67 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: Spirit comforted you. Thank God for past situations when He 68 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: reached out to you, when He removed your heaviness and weariness. 69 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: Thank God because his love is eternal and he will 70 00:05:54,120 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: always be there for you. God is present and he 71 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: is listening to you. God never said we would never 72 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: be lonely. Quite the opposite. He promised that at times 73 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 1: we would be abandoned by those we love. Do not 74 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 1: allow this to discourage you. God promised he would always 75 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: welcome you. The Holy Spirit is on your side. He 76 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: wants to help you, so be bold and ask him. 77 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 1: Ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you through God's word. 78 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 1: Ask him to help you understand and process the Bible 79 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: when you read it. Ask him to help trust in 80 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: his promises for you. Ask Jesus to speak to your 81 00:06:52,080 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: heart for you to desire to know him more. Remember 82 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: God's love will never disappear. His promise of peace will 83 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: not come to an end. The mountains and hills may fall, 84 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: but the love of God will not fail. Do not fear. 85 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: God has good things for your life. Trust in God, 86 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: in the power and promise of his word.
