10-05-06 Lamentations 3: 31, 32

Lamentations 3: 31, 32 (KJ21)
For the Lord will not cast off for ever. But though He cause grief, yet will He have compassion according to the multitude of His mercies.

Lamentations 3: 31, 32 (NAS)
For the Lord will not reject forever, For if He causes grief, Then He will have compassion According to His abundant lovingkindness.

Lamentations 3: 31, 32 (NIVUS)
For men are not cast off by the Lord forever. Though he brings grief, he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love.

Lamentations 3: 31, 32 (NLT)
For the Lord does not abandon anyone forever. Though he brings grief, he also shows compassion according to the greatness of his unfailing love.




You know that Adonai is Sovereign, with ultimate and complete control in the universe. He is your owner, Lord, and Master. You believe that He can change anything in your life, but sometimes it seems that He has removed Himself far away form you. You feel rejected and forsaken; you think the Lord has cast you off. At those times, you must put your faith in His word; He promised to never leave you or forsake you. Even though you cannot see evidence that God is working on your situation, you must continue to trust, for He will save and gather you to Himself. He will not always conceal Himself from you. You will reach your goal in strength and victory.

If you are grieving and sorrowful now, your God will show you His love, mercy, and compassion. You may have suffered loss, but Jehovah the Lord still wants to increase and multiply you. His plan for you is always abundance. He desires to rain myriads of blessings on you, out of His kindness and goodness. He will bestow His mercy and favor on you. He will deal with you in courteous grace. Therefore, continue to put confidence in the Almighty, for He encamps around you and dwells with you.
