Mercy - Pastor's Thoughts for January 2001

Mercy
Pastor's Thoughts for January 2001

Jude 21 "Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life."

There is not a day in our lives we do not need mercy's pardon
There is not an hour in which one does not need grace that is sufficient
There is not one moment in one's life that they do not need to be loved

All one needs is to ask in faith.

If someone lies in ruin, it is because they never asked for mercy to pardon, grace to help, and love to heal. Mercy is sent each morning afresh from the ever loving arms of the Almighty God, who cares beyond our understanding.

Lamentations 3:22 "It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not."

If one lives without mercy, they will tend to judge others faster than a penny that falls out of one's hand reaches the ground.
If one lives without mercy, their life will be full of negativity; seeing no good even when it comes.

Matthew 5:7 "Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy"

When one is full of God's mercy, their days are full of happiness. Their outlook on life will be a positive one, willing to be a help to others. They will enjoy a inner peace because they are giving away mercy as their heavenly Father extends His mountains of mercy to all that will receive it.

Psalm 23:6 "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever." King David could say with confidence that God's mercy pardoned him all the days of his life.

2 Samuel 11:1-27 tells of King David's sin with Bath-Sheba, then the murder of her husband Uriah. God gave mercy to pardon and love to heal the second King David repented of his sins.

God will do the same for anyone who asks for His mercy to pardon their sins. Come to Christ Jesus today.
