AFFIRMATION OF FAITH IN GOD

The Psalmist affirmed his personal faith in God. The basis of God’s blessing was the giving of an everlasting covenant to Abraham.

7 He is the LORD our God;

His judgments are in all the earth.

8 He remembers His covenant forever,

The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,

9 The covenant which He made with Abraham,

And His oath to Isaac,

10 And confirmed it to Jacob for a statute,

To Israel as an everlasting covenant,

11 Saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan

As the allotment of your inheritance,”     Psalm 105:7-11
