Lamentations 3:23 Every morning these are new; how great is your faithfulness!

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Lamentations 5:19 O Lord, you endure forever; your throne endures through all generations.

Psalm 89:14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; love and truth walk before you.

Lamentations 5:19:

Jehovah sits as King forever

Application

Prophesying Guide

God pities me to bring me back to Himself

God’s throne causes me to have hope even under discipline

God’s unshakable foundation toward the universe

Related Verses

Lam. 3:22–23; John 3:16; Eph. 2:8

Lam. 5:19; Psa. 89:14; Rom. 1:17; Heb. 12:28

 

Spiritual Integrated View (Key Point)

Jeremiah first touched God’s lovingkindness, compassions, and faithfulness, but he ended by touching God’s person and His throne.
This shows that:
👉 God’s lovingkindness belongs to His heart, but God’s administration belongs to His being; His heart may change in expression, but His being never changes.

🗣 One-Sentence Prophesying Summary

God’s lovingkindness comforts us, but God’s throne stabilizes us; His heart supports us, and His administration fulfills His economy.

🏁 Ultimate Conclusion

In the New Jerusalem, God will be fully revealed not only in His lovingkindness but in His eternal person and administration.
Our ultimate reliance is not on God’s emotional expressions, but on:
👉 God Himself as the eternal King and His unshakable kingdom.
