I Know That I Know

The song "I Know That I Know" by The Belonging Co. is a beautiful testament to the unwavering faithfulness of God. It echoes the sentiments found in Deuteronomy 7:9, "Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments." This verse, like the song, emphasizes God's steadfastness and His unchanging nature. 

The lyrics, "You've been good, good for all my life, so nothing could ever change my mind," resonate with the assurance found in Romans 8:38-39, "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." The song and these verses together affirm the unshakeable faith in God's goodness and His enduring love.

The song also speaks of a faith that is sure of things unseen, a sentiment echoed in Hebrews 11:1, "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." The lyrics, "And I've got a faith that's sure of things I cannot see," reflect this verse, emphasizing the power of faith in the face of uncertainty.

The song's refrain, "You're faithful all the time," is a powerful reminder of God's unwavering faithfulness, a theme that is echoed throughout the Bible. In Lamentations 3:22-23, we read, "The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." This verse, like the song, reminds us that God's faithfulness is not dependent on our circumstances; He is faithful all the time.

As we reflect on the lyrics of this song and the corresponding Bible verses, we are reminded of God's unchanging nature and His unwavering faithfulness. We are encouraged to stand firm in our faith, even in the face of uncertainty, and to trust in God's promises. 

So, here's a thought to ponder: How does the knowledge of God's unchanging faithfulness influence your daily decisions and actions? How does it shape your response to the challenges and uncertainties you face? As you listen to this song and reflect on these verses, may you be inspired to trust more deeply in God's faithfulness and to live out your faith with confidence and courage.
