Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
Isn’t it mind-blowing to think that God has existed before anything else?! Never did he not exist! Never has he ceased to exist. Never will he cease to exist. His existence is everlasting as the God, who is full of power and love. What this means for us is that he is our sure dwelling place. He is our shelter that never falls. When we face viruses and upheaval, we have the everlasting God as our dwelling place. This reality doesn’t mean we escape our generation and all its difficulties. It means that we have unshakeable hope in our everlasting God now and forever through Christ.
Here is some food for thought from Spurgeon, “Kings’ palaces have vanished beneath the crumbling hand of time- they have been burned with fire and buried beneath mountains of ruins, but the imperial race of heaven has never lost its regal habitation.”
I encourage you to spend some time praying Psalm 90:1-2. Thank the Lord for this reality. Ask him to give you faith to believe it in the face of difficulty.
