A Chronological Bible Reading 7 Expulsion

Genesis 3:21-24

God already knew it was going to happen. He supplied them better cloths for their new life outside of Eden. This was probably a disappointment but not a surprise. God already had a plan in place.

I found that comforting to know that my failures are not a surprise to God. He already has a plan for me. My mistakes are God's opportunities to show me who really is in charge of my life. It is God and not me.

Mercy - Day 43

 

Psalm 89:14 - Psalm 108:13

 

 

          Without mercy we would perish. We would have no hope. God knows who we are.

 

 

"For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust."

Psalm 103:14

 

 

          God repeats this next verse 4 times in this section:

 

"Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses." Psalm 107: 6, 13, 19, 28

 

 

          God repeats this next verse 4 times:

 

"Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!" Psalm 107: 8, 15, 21, 31 

 

 

          Then in conclusion God says:

 

"Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord." Psalm 107:43

 

 

          We will stumble and we will fall. We also will need to remember that God's mercy is there no matter what we do because he knows who we are. We need to turn to God when things are going good and we need to turn to God when we mess things up. He alone will get us through.
