Psalm 89:2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: your faithfulness shall you establish in the very heavens. God draws us into the conscious knowledge and enjoyment of His faithfulness — I. BY KEEPING THE PROMISES OF HIS GRACE TO US. II. BY ENGAGING US IN SPECIAL WORK. Though we have omnipotence on our side, God will employ the last ounce of our strength. He will not spare us thought, anxiety, trouble, endurance, labour, no, nor even some measure of disappointment — nothing that can conduce to make us workmen that need not be ashamed, and soldiers who can endure hardness. (J. P. Gledstone.) Parallel Verses KJV: For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens. |
