As Psalm 136 draws to a “close,” it closes in the same way that it opens. The windows of God are never closed, nor closed to you because the Window of God—Jesus—never closes!
Creation is the stage in which God remains active and acts in His history. He is the Creator, your Creator. God don’t make junk, therefore you are not junk. You are valuable and precious in the eyes of God, even if the world would try to tell you otherwise.
God is your Deliverer. Upon the stage of world history there are lots of clouded, dingy, dirty windows that don’t let us see God as He truly is. His character is steadfast love. It’s an action word that never ever ceases. His love for you is happening right now and continues to happen and move forward to the end of eternity (that’s a long time!) He’s steadfast love for you is viewed through the window of the cross.
God continues to take care of you. The ancient pray-ers and modern pray-ers of Psalm 136 acknowledge, believe, and confess that God is still very active in their lives as they actualize and realize God’s blessings and benefits.
Therefore we, with our pilgrim brothers and sisters of the Old Testament Church, can retrace our foundational pilgrimage from Egypt to Canaan and sing with them at every step that his love endures for ever. His windows always remain open!
