Topic: The Beauty Of His Mercy.
Memory Verse: Lamentations 3:25. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
Bible Reading: Lamentations 3:21-24. Key Verse:v3.
This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD’S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
Everyone under the earth needs the mercy of God if we must amount to anything significant in life. This is because our personal efforts and struggles are not enough to give us the best we desire. We need God to show up in mercy on our behalf to give us that outstanding result that we can’t give ourselves by human efforts alone. One of the men who valued the mercy of God and enjoyed the best of him is King David. “Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me. He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.” Psalms 57:1-3.
One of the things we should desire from the Lord daily is his mercy. The mercy of God activates forgiveness which in turn releases the umbrella of grace over a man’s life and situation for positive change. The mercy of God in man’s life produces help. When divine help comes your way, there must be a shift and you are bound to sing a new song. Another thing the mercy of God will activate in any life is to activate divine favour. When a man finds favour with God, God will touch men and cause them to favour him. Favour reduces our labour to the barest minimum and shoots up our output to the maximum. Favour can deliver to you even things you seem not qualified for by human standards. The mercy of God also produces hope that cannot disappoint. “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.”
This is the season of God’s mercy. Ask for it and it shall become your portion, seek it and you will find it. Wait on God patiently till he reveals his mercy to you, for he will not tarry. In mercy, the goodness of God is revealed in the lives of them that fear and obey him as a father. It was the mercy of God that turned the pendulum of victory in favour of King Jehoshaphat and the people of Judah against all odds, using singers instead of an army to finish the army of nations. “And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy endureth forever. And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, everyone helped to destroy another.” 2 Chronicles 20:21-23.
Prayer :Thank you Father God for the beauty of your mercy. From today, let me drink from the cup of your mercy all the days of my life. From today, let your mercy deliver to me results that I can’t give myself in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Matthew 27:57-66.
