Easter Tuesday


Tuesday of Easter – April 23, 2019 – Psalm 100:5

For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations

Psalm 100– The key verses is verse 3c “We are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.” In light of our lessons we rejoice that we have this new found association with the Savior, a connection caused by the Savior’s amazing grace and favor.

Psalms 93; 95-99 proclaim, “the Lord reigns.”  Psalm 100 is the thankful doxology named Jubilate, which is Latin for “O be joyful.” The phrase “his steadfast love endures forever” epitomizes the Lord’s cared for His people. 

Praise God. His mercy endures forever, and His faithfulness to all generations. “The Lord is God” and “The Lord is Good.” Let the whole earth sing and be glad.

Break in sunder, O Lord, we beseech Thee, the chains of our sins; that, taking upon us Thy light yoke and easy burden, we may serve Thee, with fear and reverence, all the days of our life; through Jesus Christ our Lord,[1]

Almighty God, through Your only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ, You overcame death and opened to us the grate of everlasting life. We humbly pray that we may live before You in righteousness and purity forever; [2]
