Day to Day and Continually

This morning as I read and study, the thing that stood our was consistence. The verse that brought me to the passage:

“²³Sing to the Lord, all the earth! Tell of his salvation from day to day.” – 1 Chronicles 16:23 (ESV)

David declares that we are to go day to day sharing the same message. Notice the exclamation point in the first part indicating to sing with emphasis and not just go through the motions.

I wonder what percentage of days I go through the motions. How often am I just saying the words and not really singing or living them?

The process that I follow with my study is to find the verse, read it, and then read before and after to gain context and work through understanding what it is and why God may have brought me to this passage. This morning is no different and verse 23 was the verse and therefore I was driven to read the passage of verse 8-36. In the passage, titled “David’s Song of Thanks” in my ESV, David uses the words and phrases; continually, forever, day to day, everlasting to everlasting. Each of those indicates the consistency that stood out to me.

“¹¹Seek the Lord and his strength; see his presence continually!” – 1 Chronicles 16:11 (ESV)

I am responsible to continually and consistently seek Him, “sing” to Him and declare Him. I have to represent all that God offers and provides. I am to be here and available at all times.

When are you seeking, singing to, and declaring God? What is your daily countenance when it comes to our Lord and Savior? Day to day and continually?
