Needed: Mercy, Mercy and More Mercy…
Today let’s thank the Lord for Mercy.
1 Peter 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
2 Samuel 24:14 David said to Gad, “I am in deep distress. Let us fall into the hands of the LORD, for his mercy is great; but do not let me fall into human hands.”
Psalm 28:2 Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
Psalm 86:5 You, Lord, are forgiving and good, abounding in love to all who call to you.
Psalm 145:9 The LORD is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made.
Luke 6:36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
Ephesians 2:4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,
Titus 3:5 He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,
Hebrews 4:16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
Matthew 5:7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Father, thank you for mercy. We do not receive what we deserve because of the mercy you have given us. Today, we thank you for strengthening us, may we always choose to be merciful. Lord you were good to all, and that is our hearts desire. (Is it?) You didn’t give us what we deserved; you showed us mercy while we were yet sinners. Let us extend it to a hurting world.
Oh God, the greatest gift we can give away is to show mercy and to love one another. Even in hardship you showed mercy. You said Blessed is the merciful for they will be shown mercy (Matthew 5:7).
All across this globe today, we declare mercy reigns.
Have A Blessed Day, For this is the Day the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it. Amen
