When we purchase something we don’t have the expectation that it will last forever. Appliances, though expensive, do not function as designed for long. It doesn’t seem like a long time before our cars begin to deteriorate and even lose value. Even our houses are not designed to last forever. It doesn’t matter how much we spend, we cannot expect our purchases to last forever. Other things, like relationships and rulers, do not reign in our lives forever. We can only count on the sovereign rule and authority of God to endure from everlasting to everlasting.
Psalm 93:1-2 says, “The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty; the Lord is robed; he has put on strength as his belt. Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved. Your throne is established from of old; you are from everlasting.” The Lord has all power and authority over all things. He can be trusted as His rule is established forevermore. He reigns in majesty today and forevermore.
