 New Mercies Every Morning

Lamentation 3:22,23 

 Because Of The Lord 'S Great Love We Are Not Consumed, For His Compassions Never Fail. 

 They Are New Every Morning; Great Is Your Faithfulness.


Lamentations 3:22–23 is one of the most hope-filled passages in the Bible, yet it was written in a time of deep sorrow. The prophet Jeremiah looked around at a broken city, a hurting people, and a future that seemed uncertain. But in the middle of the pain, one truth steadied his heart: God’s love had not abandoned them.

This passage reminds us that it is not our strength that sustains us—it is God’s unfailing love. We are not consumed by our struggles, mistakes, or weaknesses because His compassion stands between us and despair. His mercy is not limited, not exhausted, and not dependent on our perfection.

“They are new every morning.”
Every sunrise is a reminder that God gives us a fresh start. Yesterday’s failures, disappointments, and burdens do not define the new day He places before us. His mercy refreshes our spirit, His grace lifts our heart, and His faithfulness carries us forward.

“Great is Your faithfulness.”
God’s faithfulness does not shift with our circumstances. Even when life feels unstable, God remains steady. Even when we fall short, He remains patient. Even when we face uncertainty, He remains in control.

Today, rest in this truth: God’s love is deeper than your failures, stronger than your fears, and greater than the challenges you face. His mercies are enough for today—and tomorrow, He will give you new ones again.

Prayer

Lord, thank You for Your endless love and fresh mercies every morning. Strengthen my heart to trust Your faithfulness, lean on Your compassion, and walk in the grace You freely give each day. Amen.

  Stay in God’s light—don’t trade the right path for the darkness of sin Proverbs 2:13 (KJV) says: “Who leave the paths of uprightness , to walk in the ways of darkness .” “Paths of uprightness” → refers to living a good, moral, and righteous life according to God’s wisdom . “ Leave ” → means a deliberate choice to turn away from what is right. “ Ways of darkness ” → represents sin, evil, dishonesty, and a life without God’s truth. In context, Proverbs 2 is teaching about the value of wisdom. Verse 13 warns that some people reject wisdom and righteousness, choosing instead to live in sin. They prefer darkness (evil) over light (truth). In simple words: This verse describes those who abandon what is right and choose to live in sin and wickedness. A good biblical example of Proverbs 2:13 is King Saul . In the beginning, Saul walked in the “path of uprightness.” He was humble and chosen by God as Israel’s first king ( 1 Samuel 10 ). But later, Saul turned away...

Wisdom That Rescues from Evil   Proverbs 2:12 (NIV): "Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse," This verse is part of a longer section in Proverbs 2 where Solomon explains the benefits of seeking wisdom. Here, the focus is on one of the key purposes of godly wisdom : protection . "To deliver thee" – Wisdom acts like a shield, protecting the believer from danger. "The way of the evil man" – This refers to a path or lifestyle that is sinful, deceitful, and against God's ways. "That speaketh froward things" – "Froward" means perverse , twisted , or rebellious . The evil man uses words that deceive, corrupt, or lead others astray. So, when God fills you with wisdom, you gain discernment— the ability to know right from wrong , and the courage to say “no” to what is evil. We live in a world full of voices—some honest, some not. Without godly wisdom, it's easy to get pulled into ...
